Seems old, it hasn't been modified since Fri, 04 Nov 2016 16:23:22 GMT.
Oh, I missed that. There seems to be quite a few tools to dig around if you have time.
Yup, we went over this yesterday. You can have several dev kits on a dev's desk and they prefer to stack them. If you look at ps4 dev kits, or read some ps4 dev kit articles, you'll see stacking mentioned.
Shhh. Let me have my fun!
Well, that sucks. I was trying to have faith that CDPR would not pull another Witcher 3 downgrade.
I for one love the devkit design for many reasons. it looks like it could cool a 14 tflops monster. vents everywhere means good airflow means it likely wont run too hot and cause further rift between mrs. snake and i. With some good neon lighting it could even look like a cool scifi vr thing from the future.
it wont be hard to sell. just get don draper to sell it with a sentimental monologue.

Yes, my console is back from repair but before I will play there again I try to finish HZD. Though my first plan was to platinum it, I think that is too time consuming. Currently at level 31 iirc. And my Xbox One X has eaten monsters in Monster Hunter World and other games.
Registered in Japan in 11/30/2018, applied for registration in Brazil in 05/28/2019, granted registration in 08/13/2019 (backdated to 05/28), actually. They're using the Japanese registration as a priority claim.
Hadn't caught my attention before that this actually means this devkit design has been around for 2/3 of a year, likely. This seems to be way, way further along than we think. In contrast with what we know and have seen from MS, gives me vibes that they're kinda a bit behind again, just like with the Xbox One.
In an interview, the technical graphics director of Rockstar told they receive devkit two to three years before console release. They probably have a devkit since 2016/2017... It is an interview in french with a website called CanardPC...
There are devkits and devkits, though. First ones are more like performance target PC builds with some development environment stuff. This one we found out about, though, this looks much more like a final build thing - probably not final silicon, but way closer to what they're going to be using through the generation.
But it means two years before the release of PS5, they had something not so far from final silicon to work...
Even if it is 7nm+ Navi 2x inside PS55, they probably have some Navi RDNA prototype end of 2018/beginning of 2019...
Several reasons. Since Sony knows that Microsoft is limited by AMD's ability to design and deliver hardware just as much as they are, it could be the case that both companies are trying to front-load launch window releases as much as possible, and as such, the question of when the consoles get released is more of a question of if one of them stops waiting on the other to announce their release date.
It's going to interesting seeing what scarletts ray tracing hardware is going to be.
Presuming PS5 has the same raytracing hardware from AMD, it will be interesting to see how each company balances raster hardware and raytracing hardware.
They are both going to have to make a choice, it will be interesting if one has more tflops but the other has more raytracing performance.

It's probably not for a devkit. It's a design patent, which is something you'd typically file for products that will be mass-produced and seen by the end-user. Design patents are primarily about looks (protecting against lookalikes), constrained by what's feasible for mass production. Enclosures for devkits are usually very utilitarian, all about functional aspects with little to no concern about how they look.
The final design will leak soon.
They need what? 1 year until the mass production?
I can see Brasil leaking the retail box pretty soon :)

Its a dev kit not the retail PS5. I would say it was more likely PS5 releases this year than that being the retail product.
MS already said a rough launch date for scarlett at E3. When Phil said halo infinite will launch with scarlett next holiday.
Also devs offices need cleaners, these cleaners will see the devs kits.
God I would love to be a cleaner at a devs office where they have next gen dev kits, I would get pics and leak everything lol
But the cleaning company and its employees probably have to sign big NDAs
Btw,i see Zhuge retweeted that post about dev kit,so it's official now...almost! :)
The PS4 box design wasn't finalized until a few months after the reveal. Mark Cerny didn't even see it until the E3 reveal.
We didn't get any PS4 design leaks. It was locked up inside Andrew House's desk until E3 2013. :p
Zhuge gagging to spill his guts!? ;)
In any case I feel the big leaks are very close now.
Not at all - Cyberpunk 2077 has way more tech than 2018 in the 2019 stuff. Obvious things too. Painfully obvious in fact.
The games has seen obvious visual and technical upgrades since 2018 that are VERY obvious in the latest preview.
Yeah.
But there's no PS4 Devkit Design patent in 2013.
The Xbox One leaked in Brasil months before the release.
I'm not saying that it's likely to be a retail PS5, just that a design patent for a devkit doesn't make much sense. Except maybe if you intend to build on the same design for a real product, and want to ensure that no one interferes by filing a similar design patent in the meantime.
I just assume it is a peculiarity of the Brazilian system? Or the the cooling design is something new that Sony need to protect?
No. It was running on a 1080 Ti in 2018, this year, as I can guess based upon everything, it was running on a gpu capable of hardware accelerated ray tracing. Probably a 2080Ti.
Scarlett has been designed from the get go to be designed first and for most to be the best gaming machine they can make and after the X1 disaster power would be very important to team xbox.
If the PS5 turns out to be more powerful then scarlett I wonder when the design philosophy within PlayStation changed, because if they were to stick with the same stratagy they used for the PS4, it would not be as powerful as scarlett.
My thinking is that sony could of done a PS5 for $399, with an 8core zen 2, 7-8tflop RDNA, ssd, and 12-16gddr6, but because of diminishing returns Sony decided to go for $499 and a more powerful box.

Maybe, wouldn't surprise me. Depends on how far along they were with that. If the report that they had briefed devs on it and that devs were already in development and working with Lockhart as the baseline is true, kinda points to being kinda sorta a bit of a way into the thing.
Late this year, likely. Maybe it's the leaks that Cerny was trying to get in front of :D
I feel like you're doing PS4 a disservice here. It was pretty powerful at launch. It's not like it was a budget console. Besides, when has Sony ever skimped on specs?
Whatever it is, they had a design patent for the PS4 Pro devkit as well, so it's a routine thing for Sony, it seems.
