its huge advantage if comparing with consoles
Hail PC!

Every experience I've had with a gaming PC is part failure and software conflict. Games stoping working in the middle of the night, requiring me to root in INI files.
I'll use a PC for this game but otherwise bring in the consoles. More covenient, even in this gen, and I dont particularly care how games look.
PS: OP, that addon looks gawdy as ***, I'd sooner spend the skillpoints.

I spent CDN $379 last month on my PS4. Show me a PC rig for CDN $379 (with assembly costs included, since I've never built my own PC before) that will give me the same performance benchmarks, and maybe I'll believe you. I used to play ESO on a four year old $699 laptop that had 8 gigs of RAM, a 2.5 Ghz processor, and a Radeon HD 8650G graphics card. Pretty bad, obviously, but no better than any desktop PC I could have bought new and pre-assembled for $379 last month. I regularly got sub 30 FPS on my laptop with everything set on medium (plus all extras disabled, like shadows and grass), and went down to 5-10 FPS in towns after One Tamriel dropped. This isn't the case at all with my PS4. At worst, I get occasional drops to 20-25 FPS in towns during prime time.
Anyway, as to the topic at hand, that is one ugly *** add-on. The only point I spend in keen eye is for alchemy reagents. Everything else is really easy to see... Not sure I'd claim PC master race over this.

How would one even compare performance benchmarks for PC against a PS4?
It would be tough to do what you ask since PS4 and XBOX have their settings tuned down to an unknown level, particularly texture detail and filtering, and draw distance, and they are both locked at 30fps.
I can't say for certain but I am pretty sure I could price out some 1-2 generation back hardware for PC that could run the game at 30 FPS locked while having the settings tuned down to say "Medium".
Hard to know for sure though. But for PC you generally get what you pay for performance wise as long as you don't go any higher than the top mid-range stuff. High end hardware generally has a huge premium attached to it that does not translate at all to performance gains.

Heh, my computer is a potato, and I have to suffer the indignity of low graphics at the moment (but strangely only since a few months ago; before then it was perfectly content to run at high ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)
I'd prefer no grass to no graphics XD
