Klobrille? Colbert? I just checked both them have less than 20 post in this thread the last 3 weeks combined. Not sure why you're fixated with the vocal minority, when the large majority of this thread has been overwhelming optimistic. A large majority of the discussion surrounding this thread for the ps5 has been 13tf, 24gddr, hbm2, 5gbps ssd etc.

The reveal event will be dedicated, not hosted in another one like MS did (for good reasons).
Than a worldwide marketing bulldozer until and month after the release.
team-lockhart-is-a-blade
only needs 1080p because that's all they're going to stream
no lockhart consumer box
later because xcloud upgrade is a happening after xsex launch
is my current working speculative theory
otherwise I can't explain a weaker and later box
just does not make sense
but bill is not my daddy

Still racking my mind over what Gonzalo and Flute is. I know it's not an IO die, because Ariel is most likely monolithic from the PCI ID.
God knows about Oberon. There's an easy to follow timeline though...
January 2019 - Tum_Apisak leaks out the 1ghz Gonzalo
10th April 2019 - Tum_Apisak leaks out the 1.8Ghz Gonzalo
16th April 2019 - Wired article on the PS5 came out. We suspect because devkits are starting to come out.
June to August 2019 - A leaker starts to feed info to Gizmodo about a devkit called Prospero
July 2019 - Tum_Apisak leaks out thst Gonzalo managed 20000 in the firestrike benchmark
August 2019 - Komachi leaks out Oberon's clocks... that is in its A0 silicon revision (and it still kept getting tested and revised for 2 months or so)
Of course, Oberon could onky be a codename switch for the final version of PS5 but...
It may be a different chip altogether.

It's most likely that both of them are using RDNA architecture GPUs with features ported from RDNA2.
Okay that makes more sense. And we definitely don't have any inkling of what said features would be right? Not sure if theres been any specific talks regarding features from RDNA2 that will be present for the next gen consoles.
I think most people on the Sony camp are not talking about the Series X at all, but focused on the PS5.
As I said, we already know the Series X is 12TF RDNA, 16GB GDDR6, and 1TB SSD at 2GB/s, so what's to talk about it really, special from the point of view of someone interested on a PS5? I don't see too much of that.
What I see is people like Drift talking about the possibility of an HBM RAM solution for the PS5, Chris talking about a possible 1TB SSD at 5-6GB/s (or more), Aegon convinced it can reach 13-14TF, and some mix of those.
I'm on the 11.2TF-12.9TF, 5GB/s SSD, and maybe HMB2, maybe not. I think most people is on that camp.
Certainly not talking about the Series X being weaker, I think both will be virtually the same power, with PS5 having the faster SSD (which is what they've been focusing on on their PR).
I just wanna see the PS5 and it's specs, because it's the sku that me and all my friends will buy next gen, and specially the launch next gen exclusives
See i thought that too, but it's unclear. Especially when you check the PCI ID and it losts out everything that an APU should have as Ariel. https://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1022
Amen. Even if the PS5 ends up at 7 TF for $399 I'm still getting it because I like Sony's first party games.
It's fun to speculate though.
This thread travels so bloody fast. Everyone is still chasing their tales and the only net positive in the last few weeks is the confirmation of a 12TF (Spencer - 2 x X1X) NAVI RDNA (Klee) Series X.
It about time Microsoft and Sony returned to bold execution.
From what I understand the consensus is both next-generation consoles will be very close so I find it disturbing how Colbert suggests PlayStation 5 will be relatively under-powered. Any particular reason he views the range for PlayStation 5 so low when Microsoft can achieve higher results?
I also struggle to understand how someone so intimately connected to the industry can be so passive about advances in technology or amazing engineering techniques. Colbert would fit right in i.e. there doesn't seem to be an appetite from either party for powerful console hardware. This generation was a bust but previous generations, especially PlayStation, hadn't shy'd away from exotic architectures or unique engineering techniques.

Lockhart is necessary for the market to grow next gen.
Ask any casual if they'd drop £450 on a console and most would prefer to hold off buying until 1-3 years later. That's how it has been with everyone i've mentioned it to, i'd rather it didn't exist but it's needed.

If one is charitable, one could assume there are reasons based on the sizes of the respective companies. Personally, I think Colbert, prefers Microsoft's ecosystem more than Sony's and that affects these things. He or she is human like the rest of us.
Well, I do think they chose Wired because they thought they can reach more people that way. Perhaps they'll change the format for the unveil aswell. (an unveil at CES is unlikely though.)
I think he means movie playback. I think it probably will but wouldn't be shocked if it didn't.
7tf? Is that even a generational jump? I'll wait for a price drop or a pro version.
DF mentioned it in their last vid. I'd assume that's the reason.
Take his word for it. Cerny told us 100Gb br disks. Those are only used for UHD BR content and require a 4k player. Unless of course we think they'd disable UHD media playback for some reason.
Exclusive: A Deeper Look at the PlayStation 5
Now that the name is official, we've got more details about Sony's next-gen console—from the haptics-packed controller to UI improvements.
Oh these consoles will align more to the 360 and PS3 where they will outpace mid to "high" end PCs for close to 6 months or so. Which is incredible for the price we'll be paying for them.
We'll never again see a console like the OG Xbox which basically outpaced PCs almost it's entire (short) life span. Microsoft BLED on that thing. Hard. It had an Intel Pentium 3 equivalent and a dedicated nVidia GPU. Unfortunately we'll never see that again.
Regardless of my opinions of those predicting HBM in here (which is the only thing I personally find unrealistic), I've maintained the entire way that the difference between these two consoles will be negligible on screen. Even from a DF perspective.
Like DF threads will be "boring" next generation. The differences will come in the form of shadow resolutions, LOD far in the distance and other shit 95% of people don't notice.
DF threads will still be good if you looking for tech \engine breaks down and looking for the new stuff next gen going to bring .
If you look for the VS aspects yeah i guess it will be boring to some.
You don't really believe this do you? Sony fanboys are being great citizens sitting around with their legs crossed engaged in adult conversation while their XBOX brethren just foam at the mouth like unwashed savages LOL 😂
Fanboys from both sides are spinning tall tales about their console.
Thanks! Rising interest for PS5 :)Exclusive: A Deeper Look at the PlayStation 5

I was thinking about making a thread but it's probably better here: Outside of the usual yearly releases, do we have any idea of what the PS5 launch lineup will look like?
This was pretty much prompted by the Schreier tweet on Bluepoint making a Demons Souls remake, which I imagine will be for launch. Guerilla is definitely working on Horizon 2 but will that be ready for launch? Are cross gen versions of TLOU2 and GoT necessary given the PS4 backwards compatibility?

I think people are just frothing at the mouth for leaks period.........like me......
Fact. I've moved on to dying to see gameplay stage. I'm convinced both consoles will be awesome.

Damn I completely overlooked that and I've read that article at least 5 times.... Thanks, Chris.
There you go Morgan J.
