Makabb - the power of the PS5 only means one thing for certain. When PC versions come out, they have higher draw distances, better SSAO/HBAO, higher resolution shadows, proper antialiasing, ability to run at 60 Hz and up instead of 30 with drops... and stuff like that. PS5 and Scarlett will now be able to have games that are pretty much on par with the PC editions. And this is huge for console users.
Bad PC ports will still come, which will perform poorer than current bad ports. Good ports will most likely have higher requirements (how much - we'll see) on a PC equivalent.
Although I *think* the RDNA GPU in the new consoles will be a newer generation than the current RX5700 boards, there's also both Nvidia and AMD releasing new GPUs in 2020, even before the consoles' release. I expect cards such as RX5700 to drop in price in the coming months and replace the current low/middle end things like an RX570 or GTX1060. Even if the new consoles get prettier games with greater performance than their PC ports, the PC will not lag behind for too long... aaaand PC gamers who currently have strong GPUs and CPUs (like an RX5700 or, I don't know, an RTX2080 paired with at least a 6 core i5 or Ryzen) should be able to sleep well and not worry about it (but bad ports ).
