I can kind of relate, i would probably drive myself insane if Sony keeps the CPU clock speed at 2.1GHZ, just because that .1 will just drill into my brain and cause havok. Atleast downclock it to 2.0 or upclock it to 2.2

Odd numbers are digusting

I don't know if anyone's interesting, but check this out: https://youtu.be/_wsTY2zhVBM?t=3

There's no dithering* (flowers close up). There is dithering if you play the game and you zoom to the flowers.

I'm speculating that this might be PS4 Neo footage. ND probably has dev kits already. PS4 Neo shouldn't need dithering (due to better GPU/faster memory). UC4 on OG PS4 is GPU-bound.

Also, the new map seems to employ HDR lighting. I don't know how they did this on the OG PS4, but it's supposed to be a killer feature of the Neo (Polaris) GPU.

It's really strange that they haven't publicly announced it. It makes me wonder if it's possible that they'll push it back. It'd probably be a bit easier for them to do given that they own the venue where it's taking place.

Remember that you are NOT suppose to known about the existence of Neo or Slim yet!

Why would you have needed to have the announcement of something early when you don't know it existed?
 
Guess they didn't care about clashing with Apple's event when they planned this, since mid 2nd week of Sept is usually their thing. Or maybe they never even thought of that?

he's talking about the event. Sony hasn't actually public ally acknowledged the event yet despite sending out invites

Sure, but i'm not actively looking at it all the time. Whenever i think of PS4 NEO, i think of the power speculation and thus 4.2 and 2.1 come up. Along with 911MHZ clock for the GPU which makes no sense to me. It should be even and consice like the PS4 at 800MHZ. That would cleanly leave 3.68.

I was glad when sony had a very clean 1.84 and 1.6 spread for PS4. But then MS comes in sloppily with 1.31 and 1.75. Like what the hell? Atleast go the full 1.8GHZ, what's the point of leaving off .05 MHZ? Would that really go across the limit of having the XB1 turn into an easy bake oven?

Oh.

You should get that checked out.

Because it's a Playstation Meeting that's going to be livestreamed. Here's a hype video that they released for the 2013 PS Meeting

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-3GMHIgR-U

That was posted on the 31st of January with the actual event taking place on February 20th. We're now exactly a week away and there's nothing like that for this event.
 
Oh.

You should get that checked out.

I am well aware i have an OCD problem, but luckily it is contained to only several areas my brain in terms of priority(mostly in terms of how i keep things in my room in a specific organizational pattern and such), or else it would actually be a serious issue for me xD
 
Wait a second, has Sony actually confirmed that the Neo is going to be unveilved at this event, or is the thread title a rumor?
 
Since the Evolution dudes are gone i wonder if we'll get any Neo patch for Driveclub.Biggest reason for me to dropping that game is that lack of AA kills me.I don't know why but only in racing games lack of AA disturbs me that much.Same thing happened with Forza 5 then i switched to PS4 and never played F6 but when i played maxed out Apex on my PC it felt soo great.So i pray we get Neo patch for Driveclub somehow.Better AA and 60FPS not hurts if it's possible.
 
Should we not expect some FCC application for it? There only seems to be one console getting FCC filings, there were just multiple for the same one item, weren't there? It looks like they have 180 NDA on the slim's info from what I saw. Don't see anything else floating around. Can they just use the same chip as the slim and not get approval?
 
What's the big deal with 5tflops >_>
It's a nice number and it's within the realm of reason for an upclock.

HDR lighting and HDR color gamut are entirely separate things. HDR lighting is a technique that has light intensity change based on the environment while HDR color gamut, a big part of 4k TVs, is actually a wider color spectrum.

I'm sure journalists have been informed about what to expect at the event, but let's just assume they haven't for a minute here. Let's pretend Neo is just wishful thinking. What do you expect them to show for 60+ minutes instead, considering Meeting events are for hardware reveals?

Heard of DC VR?
 
We have new drawings from the worker::

095103gs6jnjcjqnqxxnqk.jpg

Looks like he's tried to draw a light bar where the "on-off" label points to the thick black line.

I hope the intermediate strip is thinner than the upper and lower strips. Something about three equally thick strips strikes me as aesthetically unpleasing.

Is it really going to be called just 'PS4'?
 
Does anyone speak Chinese? Someone needs to make an account over there and start asking for specifics, lol.

no matter what they name it, it was always going to just say PS4 on the actual hardware

Good point. In fact, the Xbox One S doesn't even say it on the box (at least not large enough to notice).

I would assume he would have no idea of the TF of the machine, that info would never be labelled but they should be able to read the power supply wattage needed on the back?
 
Getting closer to the real thing

Surprised it just says PS4. Could be him not wanting to reveal the name or just a general manufacturing stamp.

It could just say PS4 on the console anyway, and have an actual subtitle on the box.
 
Its obvious, there is no other reason to host this event.

All other Playstation Meetings have introduced hardware.

Then it's possible that it was just for the Slim and possibly other stuff....
They could possibly not even show us what the Neo looks like and just announce that it's coming Spring 2017...
