15/20% différences won't be quite noticeable in 3rd party games. It's much much less than ps4 pro/ one X. If it warrants a lower price it will be very good.

physical games are dead

Sounds very competitive with the Series X. I suppose the games will only be distinguishable by enthusiasts, so it seems like Sony have made a smart move if this is $80 or $100 cheaper.

Can already see so many insufferable fucking people in this thread with the "yikes" and "ouch" because this console isn't as technically powerful as the XSX. Y'all are so unbelievably difficult to please.

Well, it is not exactly the way things appear. I think it needs a bit of clarification beyond the spec sheet, and even from Sony themselves.
I recommend reading the article to contextualise the GPU clocks and CPU clocks.

what do you mean not the way things appear? I'll be sure to read the article when I'm at home tonight

Lower than XSex but still an awesome gaming machine. #TeamGettingBoth (that SSD is going to be incredible)

Pricing is going to be very interesting given that Microsoft has a ton more room to subsidize/make a loss on the console to be competitive pricing-wise. Especially with Game Pass.

If they can get RDNA2 at 2.2Ghz on an APU, I'm curious to see what they could get it up to with a desktop gpu.

Console warriors out shamelessly in this thread, as expected. Both are powerful and very capable boxes and will make for amazing next-gen machines. Yes, the XSX is faster, and likely more expensive, as a premium SKU. Both will be wonderfully competitive and make for a vivid gaming landscape the new few years.

The crazies borderline abusing people who anticipated this should apologize frankly. Can't wait for Demon Souls :D

Wait, so will a HDD external drive run PS5 games or will that only be limited to backwards compatible games?

LOL. That is laughable tbh. A 2080 is faster than that garbage and 2080 is a 2018 card.

I mean some of us have been saying for awhile that they are targeting $399. They pushed it all into the SSD.

I don't know why everyone kept saying otherwise.

If this's 399$, then Sony made a really good choice. If more and the XSX is 499$ then welp.

so lockhart now is a good thing for MS to go for because for multiplats it can be nearly half of PS5 power so there should be zero issues for everyone involved

This is disappointing news for the PS5, there's no two ways about it. The only positive I can see from this is it will be potentially cheaper than the Series X.

yea i dont like this approach at all, variable clock in a console is a terrible idea.

Get ready for hundreds of "ouch", "yikes', "big yikes", "lmao" etc shitposts.

Era is going to be rough these few days.
Nah, but game comparisons will pivot from Digitial Foundry to some dude with a stopwatch showing how the PS5 loaded a scene .00005ms faster than the X so PS5 is clearly the superior version

This is why MS was making it clear that the console runs at peak clocks all the time. They knew.
