If having the edge seems so important, the problem would me more the Serie X 300% above Lockhart. It's not more a One X/PS4 Pro situation because the PS5 won't have a PS4 Fat/Slim to tow. I guess we'll have to wait on the first or second volley of 1P and 3P exclusives to make it clear that you can scale down only what has been first designed to be scaled down.
The silver tower enclosure is standard for early devkits, which are usually just PC towers.

It seems the author (Igor's lab) actually tested it with a blower-type card. Not sure if that changes anything though.
Kudos for putting out this clarification! Edit: Honestly, these are real kudos and not what some want to make out of it.
I don't think Beth is waiting on the consoles to be revealed. I think both Starfield and ES6 are early in development. Even though they said Starfield is in a playable state after E3 2018.
I certainly hope that's not the case. Starfield had been rumored for at least a couple of years before Bethesda finally acknowledged it. If they don't have anything to show by E3 2020 I'd be pretty concerned I think.
Option 2 would be the best because you can use a slower fan, it is also important to have an intake fan that the PSU gets some cooling too. Though they will need some dust filtering this way.
Option 1, 2, 3 or 4?
It depends. If Xbox is going to be rumored at 14, PS5 will follow :D
Memory setup is intriguing.I also think both will have 16GB GDDR6 ,Sony with classic 256 bit bus but what about Series X? People say that Scarlett video from E3 means 320 bit bus, what do you make of that?Back.

Decided to come back with something meaningful.
Here it is!
My updated prediction.
Base:
for Xbox:
- Xbox was easy. They already outlined the specs by multipliers. 2 times power of the Xbox One X GPU . What ever it is, as a firm value it will possibly fall into the range given by the prediction.
- They also solved some issues I was so adamant doubtful about. Their design is an elegant way to solve cooling and noise. The format of at least 150mm x 150mm allows MS to use slow 140mm fans at the top and whatever they want at the bottom. If they would go with Noctua fans that thing would be not noticeable if the supposed cooler is able handle the heat dissipation.
- If the 12 TF happens Xeontech will win our the avatar bet.
- AegonSnake on the other hand, you are on record for 14TF and I think this I will not lose.
for PS5:
- Still based on Oberon.This is the most firm spec rumor we still have about PS5. There is no other information out there that would convince me otherwise.
- I upped the spec by going full CU count (no deactivated cores for both predictions actually) and I also upped to clock to 1900 Mhz GPU.
- I assume Sony will still have to manage the high clock implications with form factor or further clock down. The design of the PS5 dev kit is for me a clear indicator Sony knows about the challenges high clocks come with.
for both:
- 3.2 Ghz CPU is a safe baseline. More is always better. And yes, I saw the WindowsCentral article.
- 1TB NVMe SSD, I don't think it will be more
- Memory and memory speed I see no difference, honestly
Again this is a prediction, not a claim or a fact that it will play out this way! Just to be sure everybody understands! There is also nothing wrong to be wrong on any on this because it is speculation!

On a side note:
Kudos for putting out this clarification!
I always was skeptical of that conclusion of a 320-bit bus. The reason is while we are know now about Xbox Series X, MS talked more SKUs in the mix (e.g. Lockhart, dev kit Dante). Just think that the logic board you saw is for a dev kit or Lockhart with a 10GB configuration. Or maybe it was something completely different.
If it plays out like in my prediction I don't think consoles are priced similar. I would assume that the PS5 would be cheaper than Xbox Series X if Xbox doesn't decide to go all in regardless of the loss they would total for every console sold.
They seem to be targetting 2Ghz, but is that possible with what we have seen with RDNA1? Even the 5700XT couldnt get there without water cooling.

Yes, Oberon is 2Ghz. But with RDNA we now have 3 clocks: the base clock, the game clock and the boost clock (which is the 2Ghz). The game clock is below the boost clock and is the average achieved clock. I went from there. Also, as mentioned, because of cooling requirements.
AFAIK 13+3 (16) was mentioned in a WindowsCentral article. Jez Corden, as I know him, only put out numbers if he has 2 or more vetted sources on this.
With a second Xbox Series S Sony can try to squeeze a 399 console out.
I think 16 gigs is just fine for next gen considering very fast SSD, so i'm not worried about that at all. I'm curious about bandwidth tho :)
