I like knowing that any game I buy at the store will work identically on my (console of choice) as everyone else's copy of that game. I also like not having to update drivers and kill every non-essential process just to play games.
I moved away from PC gaming lately, simply because of these insane hardware requirements. My laptop, also bought at the core duo times, barely plays a game released last year. I'm tired of buying peripherals just to play random game X that came out, even if it means any FPS I play will suck a little bit more than the PC version without mouse+keyboard.
