Isn't R7 like $700? Do we have proof it's sold at cost?
Because that doesn't seem likely at all. Most businesses charge 2-3x cost, usually 3x, for profits. Considering AMD doesn't get any cut on game software sales I imagine they charge a good profit per card they sell. But I may be missing something here so let me know.

When they "go" in relation to each other has little importance outside of the mind of console waring fans.
What matters is what they say/show and there delivery.

GDDR5 in ps5 accounted for 20-24w if micron's statement of 2-2.5w for gddr5x(and gddr6) holds true.
If that is really the case then it will be 256-bit. The X uses 7Gb/s chips down-clocked from 3500MHz to 3400MHz, if they are using a 4500MHz GDDR6 chips (18Gb/s) then it might be down-clocked too. But I'll be honest, 4500MHz GDDR seems a bit high for a console.

My loading times for the ERA website and threads are extremely slow at the moment. Endpoint Germany. Anyone with the same issue?

No. The recent videos just haven't had good content. He seems very keen on responding to criticism with drawn out explanations and hypotheticals vs. giving us new tea. I don't care what you knew 6 months ago if you didn't share it until someone else leaked it.
Yes lol. It does seem rather odd Sony are making a fuss about a rather trivial feature, no doubt some fans will start acting like load times and streaming are the most important thing in gaming.
576 gb/s is more probable then. Not a fan of it, since part of it has to power the CPU.
Slow in Malaysia too, yeah.
4G on mobile and the site performance is honking at the moment, Scotland here.
Not really trivial.
Think it's understated by many tbh. Better streaming of assets will probably be one of the most important things to happen this gen.
Everything is being routed through your new DNS, pastebin!

Cool patent here. Sony wants to improve on current character animation techniques.

Depending on how well integrated the storage solution is with the memory management, it could be much, much bigger than just faster loading times. What you can display on the screen (and what you can do with world sim, for instance) is limited by what you can have loaded onto memory at any given time. The faster you can swap stuff in and out of memory, the denser worlds can be, the larger the asset variety you can have.
The context is absolutely different (before price reveal vs during/after price reveal, very early interview vs closer to launch E3, no prior $399 console to compare to in House's case, etc.), but you can believe what you want. I'll trust the guy who was actually speaking to Cerny.
Also, I looked at the video again, and I actually don't think their phrasing is as similar as you think. They do both fall under the same general "the price is good for what you get" mold, but House talks about "the entertainment PS4 will provide over the coming years", which feels much more like a reference to games and software (he later mentions a list covering "consumer trust, consumer ownership, games, entertainment, value and innovation - no explicit references to powerful hardware) than Cerny's "advanced feature set" which I feel sounds much more like a reference to expensive and impressive hardware elements. But at this point we're quibbling over really minor word choices and inferences, and I do not think it's going to go anywhere. We can't know for sure what the price will be, and in the end we're going to have to sit and wait like everyone else.
Slow in Israel too and I'm on a 1Gb/s fiber. Sounds like it's world wide.
I wonder why my Switch games still have load times if games on cartridges = no load times.
I think the ability to load a world or fast travel through open world games near instantly is going to be amazing.
It is when talking about a next gen leap, ram + gpu power are far more important,
But like I say it won't surprise me that some people start acting like loading + streaming is the hail Mary of next gen
funny, I just ran speedtest 10 minutes ago thinking it was my broadband.
GT's history of delays and Kaz's penchant for "perfection" is the reason it's not a good bet.
You have to remember that the reason they gave for the delay of GT:S was the same exact one they gave for GT5. With GT5 they took so long to detail every car beyond current system's capabilities. They were future proofing their models. With GT:S they scrapped those future proof models to start from scratch with new, more future proof models.
Would GT be a good showcase, yes. Was that the same story when PS4 was launching, yes.
No one would be happier if Kaz broke GT's bad track record when it comes to on-time releases, than me.
There's where we differ in our opinion.
RAM + GPU power is of course important, but streaming + loading has always been constricted to HDD speeds for the past decade at least, especially for consoles.
ERA has moved back to HDDs from SSDs
But.. their making changes in how fast their making cars/tracks now. Their also outsourcing car design work in 2018/2019 to car design universities / technical universities in Japan now. Outsourcing for the first time ever I might add.
If they wanted, they could practically re-release GT Sport as GT 7, adding only what Sport is missing (quirky washing machine / rain/ weather and other missing things)

Microsoft have stated they're going after the power crown. That's why his opinion differs from yours.
One of the 2 author's of this patent works at Pixelopus (Concrete Genie), so this is maybe just a patent for the animation techniques they are using for that game. I do recall the animations being quite unique with how they handle faces.

Ryzen 3000 will have 4 lanes for storage -> 1.5GB/s per PCIe 4.0 lane ->7.5GB/s in total for an SSD.

I'm sure there is strength to those rumors but I can't believe it. There is no scenario where a company that makes profit off hardware would sell any hardware at cost like that, especially AMD which sells to the small market of PC GPU enthusiasts.
I can't see it costing more than $400 total, all things considered, for the card, to be produced. Even that is high.
I think the extra emphasis on SSD tech and speeds at the moment is because theyare not ready to talk about the rest of their tech just yet BUT they feel they have to talk about something. Talking SSD and loads speeds etc lets them be part of the conversation without giving anything too meaningful away.

Thing is after the new consoles come out it going to be hard to go back to the old ones.
I feel loading will be one of the reasons , it hard to go back when you notice how much better things are .
As someone who play a lot of fighting games SSD will be god send .
Nothing interesting about that .
The fact that someone think Sony will build there next gen console with Japan in mind is funny ( less than 10% of there market )
What even more funny is the the reason he using .
Switch doing good in Japan because it portable which PS5 will never be .

I highly doubt this rumor is true. Sony isn's going to start focusing on the Japanese market again considering it is in secular decline.
Thanks! I searched but couldn't find the name.
Well I guess since you can't see it, it all must be bogus.
My loading times on ERA have mostly been slow to the point where I have to wait several seconds till it loads at all. Always thought that is an ERA thing. Also Germany
It's based on 2017 estimated prices as far as I can tell.

The questions I have here are :
- How does he know about Sony plans regarding a small form factor and what motivated it considering he is "only an entry low level software designer"
- How does he know about that Vega won't change for the final console? Where would he have that information from in his position?
- If MS is using Vega and Sony is using Navi how can Microsoft get away with 40% more performance, especially given that Vega is terrible for perf/watt and Navi could improve on that. That would mean the MS console draws like 50-60% more power, which is unlikely.
I am always very suspicious when they claim random bits of information that are clearly hard to come by.
Not that I believe this but it would be pretty nuts if Anaconda was ~40% more powerful than the PS5. It certainly make Era virtually unreadable next gen. lol
that... that would be dumb.
It's not only the size, but the portability of the Switch that was important.
Nothing about their reasoning for the PS5 design makes sense.
My loading times of Era are always within a second (100mbps down). But today it is a game of patience. 20 seconds and more.
