Guys i need some advise about this. Should i get a PS5 or a Gaming PC?

I've dug up a lot of websites and did some ample research too. But would like to hear your perspective too as i didn't find any article which matches my needs. Now i am asking this question in advance. I'd be buying either of these next year (~aug 2021). When my college year begins. I've owned a PS2 before and personally love the PS ecosystem more and the PC gets most of the stuff the XBOX has , so yeah its not in my mind now.

I'd mention my points. Share your thoughts about it. My budget is ~$1750. Have been saving for a while.

  1. The PS ecosystem and ambience. I do like the PS4 over PS5 because of it sounding similar to the PS2. But there's still something special with PS that the PC just can't have.
  2. Not a hardcore gamer. I like to play casually and i play games across all genres and eras. Which makes PC better for me. I can emulate the PS2 games i had as well as the old PC games too. Greater Backwards Compatibility is also another thing.
  3. Don't do any editing work but as a guitarist i need a PC for music related stuff. And obviously the sheer flexibility the PC offers! I can do anything on it. College Projects, Movies etc.
  4. PS5 is simple. Plug in and play. No complexity like the PC. I'd get like 2 hours on Sundays to play games so thats the max have. If that time goes onto optimizing settings then i'm done.
  5. Exclusives don't mean much to me. Its like 'good if i have it, not a big deal if i don't'.
  6. The college hostel won't be offering any 4K tv so yeah i'd be getting a 720 or 1080P TV for the PS5. I can buy a 4K monitor for the PC. And due to space limitations i'd have to sit in front of the monitor if i used it for PS5 anyways.
  7. I have a controller with me for the PC. So its not a major factor for me when it comes to consoles.
  8. PS5 is easier to carry around and play with friends.
  9. I am looking at a long term scenario, like next 7-8 years without too many upgrades. A high end PC would serve me well i guess. I'm fine with tweaking settings if my hardware isn't meeting the standards. PS5 is gonna come with preset settings which i don't like that much. But it indeed takes the win when it comes to future proofing.
  10. I can repair my PC if i want. But PS5? Nope.

some people told me just to get the PS5 for gaming and a mid end PC for the rest of the stuff. Is that a good idea? Is the PS5 worth it or should i just go for a high end PC instead?
