I know it's been asked but I still haven't seen anywhere DF says they heard this from developers. Even the second part of what you say says it's a hunch. If you watch the video Cerny mentions it does Smart shift in conjunction with the boosted clocks and should be able to do 3.6 and 12.28 at the same time for majority of loads.
I don't know if you're close to a release yet, they might not announce prices soon, especially with the current pandemic.
Phil Spencer already said they will not be out of position on price or power. So either Lockhart exists or Microsoft is more willing to take a loss.
Not really what I meant. Of course both discussions should and can take place... It's the way people are choosing to react that's the problem. I'm saying that the power difference this time is so small, yet you're getting people loosing their shit over it. Rather it was wider between One X and Pro and still the reactions were minor between multiplat comparisons or people simply didn't care. Not only that, the anticipation for the titles I previously mentioned is through the roof yet we don't see One X used to downplay them on PS4 with what could of been given better specs. So why this pile on to Cerny or questioning of devs excitement in the hardware, where there's about a small power deficit in Series X favour. 16/17% was it... Will be barely noticeable, so the nonsensical posting is pointless right now especially when we haven't seen a single decent length of gameplay from next gen. Godfall is the closest we have to gameplay.
Yes we get it, you are very excited for the PS5 and not so much for Series X regardless of what they will be priced at.
That doesn't mean we should let bias get in the way of reason which is why I said next gen cannot be compared to how the current gen started. Anyways you've proved it's pointless to carry on because no matter what the discussion you will continue to lean one way.
You would be wrong. There would be a difference, and advantages, but not obvious to the naked eye.
But that's the thing, apparently it suits them now and they simply fucked up its initial delivery.
Well I dont agree. If you reveal something be specific ant try to eliminate confusion and dont give opportunity to random people to start filling the gaps and in some cases create a negative vibe.
Well ERA and in the past the old site can be a savior or pain in the ass. I think a lot of buzz is created here (positive and negative) I think you would want to make your story as clear as possible so you have the momentum and positive vibe. Im a PlayStation fan but in my opinion they are doing a bad job at the moment.
I'm actually beginning to suspect the PS5 might wind up being more expensive to build. The SSD will cost a mint vs XSX's relatively off-the-shelf solution, and ensuring the GPU can sustain 2.2+ Ghz is a potentially expensive endeavor (since they wouldn't be able to use GPUs that can't hit that mark within acceptable voltages). Even if my concerns about the GPU proves to be unfounded, the difference in cost between the two GPUs will be neutralized by the differences in cost between the two SSDs (especially considering how much extra stuff Sony is throwing into theirs).
Wasn't there a DF video where they mistook checkerboard 4K for native 4K because they weren't able to tell the difference?
I think thread need to be separated and every time someone goes in X thread downplaying something by comparing to Y should be insta ban. I was really against it at the "speculation thread" time. But now, we have 1/3 of active thread beaing console wars.
There are other areas that PS5 excels at though. GPU speed and higher total ram speed. Less bottlenecks.
At the rates we're talking about? Not really.
No. The difference between the One X and Pro was something like 30% (just comparing TFLOPS). Between the XSX and PS5 it drops to around 15%.
He wrote that because devs stated previously they wanted to do that but we're limited by the tech they had. That post is a collection of various articles/tweets/posts with barely any original thought or any meaningful knowledge of the subject.
PS2 had more gigaflops than Xbox though so it was more powerful.
