New thread for new rumor; from Resident PSF Jason Schreier (while dismissing the Dualshock 5 leaks as fake):

Look, as I've been saying since roughly March 2018 (in this very thread), next-gen is coming in 2020. That Semiaccurate article saying 2018 (lol) got people's hopes up for 2019, but by now I hope it's clear that the PS5 ain't coming out this fall.

And, despite all the rumors about devkits being out (usually from rumormongers who are wrong more often than not), the number of people briefed on next-gen is still very limited. Even within companies like, say, DICE, there'll be a small team of engineers who now have a rough idea of specs, and everyone else will know when they need to know. Not a lot of devs are disclosed on next-gen right now.

In other words, don't expect much in the way of substantial leakage just yet. The only thing to know for sure is that both Sony and Microsoft are aiming higher than that "10.7 teraflops" number that Google threw out last week. (And, as has been reported, Microsoft's got a few things in the works.)

As a reference, here's what Google was bragging out during Stadia announcement:

This makes me feel a lot better about biting and buying a PS4 Pro 4 months ago.

Well, that's nice, since they will force 4K less than 10tflops would be a disaster...

can think of around 11-14 tflops.

They have to aim higher than that because if they dont one will have one higher than the other and thats an instant console war "sticker" beginning next gen.

I cant wait for the hysteria over specs again lol. Just one of the most entertaining times to be on here

Super curious to see what, if anything, MS mentions about next-gen this E3. I hope they don't reveal it at all, it doesn't benefit them in any way.

You don't think Stadia can adapt on the fly? Do you realize how virtual machine work?

I'm most curious to know if RAM will quadruple (as is tradition) in the PS5. Expecting 32GB of RAM feels unrealistic, but then again 8GB of RAM felt pretty wild at the time as well...

edit: hm, a glance at wikipedia suggests my understanding of the tradition is incorrect. wonder where I got that idea from

I won't be expecting much more than the Stadia power, just a little higher but far from a leap, they won't have 20 TFlops for example.

Quadruple? PS4 has 16x more RAM than PS3.

Traditional memory jump would leave us with 128GB of RAM in PS5, but nobody expects that now with these prices.

More interested in the CPU tho.
Expect 16 thread Zen 2 with non-crazy clocks.

i hope it's not true, there is still a lot of juice left on this gen, the earliest i want next gen is like 2022.

I don't know if this really deserves it's own thread. Seems like it would better served as a talking point in the next gen thread.

I always knew it wasn't going to be 2019, I just never understood how people could be salivating over next gen 3 years before it's expected launch

Like damn, how many months after the PS5 are some of you going to be counting the days till the PS5 Pro? LOL
