There's no one answer, though I would agree with "consoles". The best depends on so many things. What is your budget, what are the games you are looking to play etc. And where are you located as besides the big companies, you could have local companies offering rather competitive boutique builds.

 

For example, this is for €2000 from local retailer:

Quote

AMD Ryzen 5 5600X, 3.7/4.6 GHz
MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK
 MSI NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GAMING X, 12GB GDDR6
Corsair 16GB (2 x 8GB) Vengeance RGB PRO DDR4 3200MHz CL16
1TB M.2 NVMe SSD
MSI MAG Core Liquid 240R AIO
MSI MAG FORGE 100R
MSI MPG A750GF, 750W 80 Plus Gold
No OS

From same store, Aus' prebuild €100 cheaper:

Quote

Windows 10 Home
AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, 3.80 - 4.70 GHz, 32MB, 8-core
NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070, 8GB GDDR6
16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4
512GB SSD (M.2 NVMe PCIe 3.0)
802.11ac (2x2)
Bluetooth: 5.0

700W (80+ Gold)

 

Differences being the GPU, size of SSD, PSU and included OS. Plus that you can 100% sure upgrade the boutique build vs this one from Asus.
