Really hope Cerny douses the PS5 in some last minute secret sauce and manages 12.1 TF in a photo finish victory.

Rumour: WindowsCentral - Inside the target specs of the next Xbox 'Project Scarlett,' 'Anaconda', and 'Lockhart'
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Seems to be the exact same specs from the Reddit post from January.This is the exact same as the Jeux Video leak from February.
we've been thinking Lockhart in $299, PS5 in $399-499 and Anaconda in $499-599
If priced aggressively you can't go wrong with any of them
But if a developer targets 1080p for crazy raytracing effects, how will the weaker console fair? Also I feel that the raytracing features will probably not be present on the cheaper console. So games that will use mirror surfaces as a gameplay element will not work.
NVidia fucked up with 2xxx series. Now they at least 70-80% improv for gpus worth the money.
The rumor is actually that PS5 is more powerful, so it is not coming in below Anaconda in price if that is the case.
Would that make you feel better about yourself or something?
i don't get comments like this
This is the dream for me for all next gen consoles. Give me both versions of the game (streaming & digital) & let me choose how to play.
Serious question though: why would Lockhart target 4TF when the One X targets 6TF? Will the CPU mitigate the graphics it loses out on? Did I even just ask that question correctly?

How do you mean play better? Better play i place as higher framerates and quick loading times. That will Lockhart do.
Cerny since day one said pretty much it's gonna be more expensive than PS4, which is gonna SUCK for Non Americans, $800 in Australia here we come.
I think that is the difference they will aim for. Same exact games. Same graphics. Different resolutions and minor effects. I think both can coexist and not hold anything back much like how 1660s and 2080s exist on pc at the same time.
...why? Maybe I'm not understanding properly, but on my own windows 10 desktop, even when I'm running a heavy game with multiple apps and firefox running in the background, I regularly still have at least another 6-7 GB of ram available for use.
I know that games are more demanding these days, but there are plenty of headroom.
if they do a decent job of optimizing the OS AND they're using an SSD, I'm not sure if 16GB RAM would be an issue.
You should be thankful they haven't brought up Dragonball yet (I think)
Beef up the CPU and scale back on the GPU in comparison to the One X to make it more compatible with Anaconda's capabilities. Target the same games at 1080p the Anaconda will do at 4K with the ability to stream games at 4K as well. Seems like a solid idea in theory if all this Lockhart stuff is actually happening.

The one X has more TF though? I guess the loading times would be faster, but wouldn't the framerate be better? Or is the CPU more significant in the lockheart
Exciting times. If there is one concerning thing that prevents this from being more future proof, it's the amount of RAM. Guess we can't have it all.
It's funny if you actually care about this assuming everything here is accurate.
Not going to lie if this is true and the new consoles are indeed that powerful, I will just buy one of those instead of upgrading my PC and wait until it's worthwhile again.
The CPU and HDD in the X completely ruin your argument. It's still running Jaguar cores which have been garbage since 2013.
I think there needs to be a sticky on era that says "don't compare Nvidia & AMD TFLOPS"
Not trying to be rude, but for years AMD have heavily over stated their numbers.

You cant compare the TF of this gen to the TF of next gen 1 on 1.
And yes the CPU is gonna be the biggest leap for all next gen console compared to the old Jaguar wich was already out of date in 2013 :)
My guess is that Lockhart is target towards 1080p and anaconda is targeted towards 4k and they in terms of development they both scale nicely reducing the amount of work involved for developers.
It is because raytracing demands resolution sacrifices. Because the more pixels you have, the more rays you need to trace. This could definitely be a possibility. I could see how many ways mirror or reflective surfaces could be used as a gameplay element.
What does "near future" mean to you? That smiley face seems suspicious....
How does that stack up against the latest PS5 leaks for those of us not following closely?This is the exact same as the Jeux Video leak from February.
This would be so exciting if true. I think the biggest part is the CPU news as so many assumed it would be underclocked for consoles but with this, combined with likely using a 3700x equivalent would be incredible my PC is going to be outdated. I'm wondering if the games are going to be surely targeting 60 FPS given such an increase from what we know. I think Lockhart makes sense as a cheaper option for those who don't need the most best IQ and performance if Anaconda is targeting 4k/60 FPS as it theoretically kind of scales to 4x less resolution for 1080p/60 FPS. We've kind of seen XB1X games hit 4K with less Teraflops and that's on a weaker architecture. I don't see lockhart hamstringing the more powerful console since from what I've read, they develop using the more powerful and then scale down not the other way round.
A Vega 64 is 13.7 TFLOPS and is weaker than a GTX 1080, though not by much.
Don't get tripped over the difference between how AMD and Nvidia calculate TFLOPs.
Weaker than the 1080 would be good for me though so I can try to avoid upgrading for a year or 2.
Yeah I'm waiting for people to explain themselves here.
There are gaming computers today are actually fine on 8GB of RAM. 16 GB is a sweetspot. 32GB/64GB is for heavy video editing/server...
