That could be interpreted in many ways. For example, they won't have weaker but more expensive console.
36 CU GPU is designed for 399 dollars console. It seems that was always the case. Sony will definitely eat the cost and price it lower.
What's your thoughts on the Tflop difference versus the higher clock of the GPU? Can that close some of the gap?I think the speeds will definitely factor into streaming and loading of assets. Storing textures and any other assets that need per pixel shading however, will have to be in memory already. I'm not sure how that would translate to faster FPS though. It's a good question and one that we'll hopefully see the answer to pretty soon.
I dont feel like Odium info was far off and he even mentioned 10TF targed before (the same with Heisenberg).![]()
because you sound like i child take responsibility for it you posted fake info pretending you have sources which makes you responsible like i you're responsible for your child, you should think twice before posting any info from anyone. we will see if mod of war keeps his word and take action like he said he will.
So even after both consoles have been presented you still think PS5 is more powerful than XSX? Can you explain how that can be possible? From the GPu, to the CPU, memory bandwith, etc. All specs except SSD are better in XSX and we still have to see how if the SSD tech does make some kind of difference.
Third parties can, of course, but of you do something that's not possible on the other console...? See the problem?
Also, MS have quite a few things as well that will help with all this.
As I said, don't get me wrong here, the Ps5 SSD will alow some utterly insane stuff to be done, but you will need to look at first party for the real show stoppers there. They will more than likely still deliver some better stuff than the SX. But there ARE laws to follow that you can't break, and some of them sadly are a little bit more rigid.
If you went ps4 this gen, you will not be disappointed in any way with Ps5 next gen. that much is true. I myself went all three this gen and will go all three next gen. but there's no wrong choice this time.
The biggest issue was that utter shit show of a, well, show. It made them look really bad, when in reality they have a damn good product.

I think it's 1 TB and the rest is reserved for the system. I could be wrong, but I think my Pro also had 825 GB free from the get-go.
Odium should be banned. The whole cu's and fucking pigeon shit, he did it all to laugh at peoples expense. He created all that shit in bad faith. Bet he laughed his ass off while stream was going on and it was his intention from the start of his charade. Anyone who outright made shit up deserves the same. Odium just has less shame than that fake insider Tommy Fisher, Odium actually wants to show up here after what he said. Shameless.![]()

A 36 CU being used 80% is comparable to a 52 CU being used 70%, and the extra frequency makes all parts outside the CU faster, so the real difference between the consoles might not be that large as the numbers show.BGs could you (as a developer) clarify the claim that Cerny made about PS5's GPU being narrow and fast saying it's more performant (I think he meant more FPS?) Than going wide and slow (more CUs but at lower frequency). Anything you can say is appreciated! And get well soon!!
PS4 was 40% better than the Xbox one, while the Xbox SX is 16% is better than the ps5 so it's not the same lolYes - imagine. That is from 1,8tf - around the same performance Xbox has over PS5. If you can make a game look that good with 1.8TF - surely you can use that 1.8TF power to make a 10TF-game look better?

in first place it's his fault to give doubtful info and pretend you have sources not some of us taking his info as it's factual true. when you doubt your sources you should take responsibility on yourself rather blaiming doubtfull sources of yours.Every time he delivered infos he said he wasn't sure, it's just what he heard etc... if people skips that part and just went OMG 11.6, than really to post insider info here you betta be sure like Mark Cerny level. C'mon.
Mod of War will likely ban "fake vetted". He is not vetted, can't ban him because he told something he heard and not wanted to get vetted because wasn't sure. Grow up.

keep enjoining while trolls keep lying to your face laughting and thinking how everyone stupid in here are.Are some angry kid in his bedroom, grow up man.
That's not how it went at all... Xbox went on stage in May and everyone immediately made remarks on their TV TV TV presentation. PS4 was already top dog, and it was only made worse during E3.One thing to point out on, is this all happened last gen too. Both companies went on stage to talk about their new consoles. Xbox was the clear winner and you were embarrassed to be even seen with anyone who wanted a PS4. Then later in the year Sony done the old switch-a-roo and they became top dog and Xbox just looked like a big bag of dicks.
i'm not even replying to you and i'm wasting your time?FIRST. PARTY. SOURCE. Which just so happens to be the first info I was given At 10.5 would have been pretty much bang on for the upper limits, as it was even said they had lots of thermal issues. I was then given new numbers, and those numbers checked out as they were also reported elsewhere. Am I supposed to know that he sent me numbers because he, I assume got the willies and got nervous? I don't know. I still don't know. I'm waiting on a reply.
I was never once doubtful of my source otherwise I wouldn't post them.
You're wasting my time, and everybody else's. Take it to PM if you're that upset and it's ruined your bedtime routine.
im interested in seeing what their SSD can do in comparison to the XSX and how much was pr spin.
i feel like the 2-3 tflop difference and 44% more RT capabilities will be more noticable
That's not how it went at all... Xbox went on stage in May and everyone immediately made remarks on their TV TV TV presentation. PS4 was already top dog, and it was only made worse during E3.
Cerny mentioning they've had to cap the frequency (in this boost strategy) to guarantee the other logic systems worked correctly – does imply dev kits were probably running at 10.5TF in line with the info you had– or were running at 10.5TF when they were using fixed clocks and variable power draw, before switching to high-end cooler and innovative/cutting edge boost strategy – a strategy that probably implies GPUs for Sony are staying at 36CUs, more BVH accelerators and possibly heading for the 3.2 -3.8GHz clocks at the midgen refresh.FIRST.

I keep seeing this faux outrage that Sony is 1.5 less TFLOPPERS than Microsoft but that's in GPU. So how many TFLOPPERS does Microsoft have in audio, the other forgotten sense most humans have? Answer than, worry peeps.
I hope you get better, and your family too.Sorry but I'm worse, and my family too, so I'll make a general answer. If you can do me a favor, if someone asks something that is answered in this answer, please answer me with a link to this answer. If the answer is not answered I will answer as I can.

Maybe my translations are not always correct, but when have I said what I highlight in bold?
One thing is the theoretical number and another thing is the difference, in practice, between the systems. The numbers are very good for Marketing. And yes, it is true, the specifications are what they are (although I do not agree that RAM plays in favor of XsX, rather the opposite). But at the Hardware level, in practice, it is the generation that has the least difference between one and the other. And what MC did yesterday didn't seem to imply that. That was my analysis. Regarding your question, there is a lot of custom hardware that compensates for the small difference. And above all (by historical analysis) games. That's what history is about. If people want to continue buying a system for its "power" it is in its right, but in my modest opinion it is a mistake. It was in the past and it is even more so now. The system should be purchased based on the games you want to play. The difference in quality between the multis will be negligible (or should be in practice), I would even dare to say that in practice we will see more multis from XsX weighing down PS5 than vice versa.
Of course, DF will never have problems finding differences. They live on that.
On the other hand, there are things that have not been said or have not been explored (by both sides).
Regarding the gif (which surely more than one will ask me) the pact with the devil were two factors. SSD first. I think you still have no idea what an SSD that loads 2GB in 0.27s means. Not only useful for load times, but for many more things. Sony's breakthrough in VR in terms of photorealism and immersion. There are more things that I can not comment on, but basically it really depends on the developers.
(end response 11:13 am) that is the seriousness of the situation
Yeah it was. Look at this article which was released a couple of days after the reveal, but before E3. Sony immediately knew what to do, and passive aggressively let everyone know they are a gaming company, and not gimmicky media stuff.Haha really? Man, that's not how I remember it at all.

Why exactly "not so fast"?
Do you have any hard numbers?
how can you be not sure and say that you don't have any doubts of your source? there are many users in this thread who called 10.5 tflops it's been guesed back and forth all possible ranges of Tflops so why wee all aren't called insiders? from first page in this thread there are no so called insiders except for tommy fisher which said exact numbers for xsex i'm not defending tf he's got most of things wrong but it only need to get one thing exact to prove that you really know something.I don't agree.
If some random guy like me say "not sure but my source says that..." than I could agree, everyone can do that.
But O'dium is not everyone, at the very least he is a developer, if he says he has a source of some sort it's because he much probably has, that's why he should be allowed to speak instead of be treated like an Average Joe.
At this point, if he says that he's not sure if the source is right or not, the least you can do is, well... take this in consideration?
So, to recap:
A developer had a source
He shared some infos that weren't totally EXACT, but he never pushed 13 tf or something and he said he could not be true because has no first hand experience.
People end up totally hoping he's right to the point they PRETENDED him to be right, now that he's wrong you want him to be banned.
It's not his problem, at the very least this way of reacting will led NeoGAF to have no insiders at all, not even potentially honest people who are just giving the thread some love instead of let random goonies speak about Youtubers.
Rumors are gonna appear anyway, the only thing you can do is considering what the premises are and conduct yourself.
Oh. I was under the impression from your multiple posts on the issue that you and your mates were discussing specs in a cafeteria or something, as in close proximity. Now thats changed. It was a long distance relationship with information on next gen specs. 52coooo's and 36coo's are a big difference mate. Must've been nice being a god and having articles written about being an insider huh?FIRST. PARTY. SOURCE.

No no you'll only see true next gen on PS5!We'll have to see. Sure it's twice as fast, but you also need to be able to handle that amount of output (CPU/GPU) and how big are your games going to be if you really need to load in that many textures?
If the XSX can load 2.4GB of textures in 1s, so for just 1 current view/scene. How large does your game have to be if you really want that many textures for a single second. Imagine that you want 5.5GB of textures... You can maybe install 1-2 games on that 825GB SSD. Honestly I don't believe we will see that much of an impact. Loading will be faster, but you won't see much difference graphically.
I prefer an honest person over a trolling insider, exactly as you say Tommy Fisher got SeX right and all the rest TOTALLY wrong. Like, 13.3 FT, full BC, techland acquired or something, like really? You want this shit here, all for a correct number?how can you be not sure and say that you don't have any doubts of your source? there are many users in this thread who called 10.5 tflops it's been guesed back and forth all possible ranges of Tflops so why wee all aren't called insiders? from first page in this thread there are no so called insiders except for tommy fisher which said exact numbers for xsex i'm not defending tf he's got most of things wrong but it only need to get one thing exact to prove that you really know something.
I watched it, he was boring as hell and the spinning kept going , In Layman's terms. It was boring as fuck and not technical at all for a GDC presentation. I watched numerous from DICE and other teams.
Microsoft also offers compression algorithms.
The PS5's announced specs make sense if you think of Sony's strategy this way:
PS4 launched 2013 for $399
PS4 Pro launched 2016 for $399
PS5 launches in 2020 for $399
Sony is aiming to deliver the best value at a specific price point and is adjusting the specs to fit.
Microsoft's strategy for their high-end SKU is to offer more performance than Sony, but at a premium price point:
Xbox One X launched 2017 for $499
Xbox Series X launches 2020 for $499
Microsoft knows they won't sell that many Series X due to the high price point, so they have planned Lockhart to undercut Sony on price (but at a rumored 4TF performance).
Xbox Series S launches 2020 for $249-299?
Different pricing strategies yield the differences in specs. Very straightforward and not surprising.
It's 5-6GB per sec, more if you include compression . lets call it 10 per sec .. that's 1GB/frame @10fps , 100MB/frame @100fps etc .. that's not enough to complete loading of a scene if it changes substantially
According to this accurate leak from early 2019, it'll be 4tf at $250.
PS4 was 40% better than the Xbox one, while the Xbox SX is 16% is better than the ps5 so it's not the same lol
but how can you expect someone to know everything? like i said you only need one thing exactly right to be legit so means tommy fisher knows someone from ms side.I prefer an honest person over a trolling insider, exactly as you say Tommy Fisher got SeX right and all the rest TOTALLY wrong. Like, 13.3 FT, full BC, techland acquired or something, like really? You want this shit here, all for a correct number?
that's the point there's no reason for him to not be vetted mods in here don't share any info about insiders it's all 100% confident, by not doing that he can't to be taken seriously as real insider.I do not know if Odium is REALLY honest, as you don't know either, but that's the point. I don't know and I say that I don't know and kept my doubt until reveal, you don't know and pretend others to tell you the absolute truth.
It's up to you to call him an insider or not, because he never wanted to be vetted, that's the point.
if he's a dev in a first place i don't think dev would troll other dev so there's no reason to be not sure about your info, as he said he haven't got any doubt of his first hand source. that's just doesn't make sense.If he has a first party souce, of course he doesn't doubt his source in the sense that he's fucking sure that stuff are coming from basically Sony itself, not from anonimous indie devs. Yet, they could troll or whatever, so he's not sure about the infos.
He did say it stays at those clocks most of the time and that the downclocks should be minimal, a couple % being enough to decrease heat by 10%.I think there will be a difference in speed. I'm not convinced that the PS5 will stay at maximum throughput. I also see developing for the game being a bit of a hassle because of the power context switching. As Cerny was talking I started cringing because I knew where he was going with the GPU/CPU connection. I can imagine scenarios where this coupling could cause frame pacing issues. We'll have to see if there is a bottleneck there when games start to get benchmarked.
However, there is a twist and it's something we've covered before, that we can now see play out in real-time - Nintendo's 'boost mode'. This amounts to optimisations in how certain games selectively overclock the CPU to improve loading times. For example, when you die in Mario Odyssey, the screen fades to black and the game loads you back to the last checkpoint. There is a fairly quick turnaround in Odyssey but this is faster thanks to boost mode. During loading, the CPU gets upclocked temporarily to 1785MHz - a 75 per cent increase on the stock clock. Meanwhile, the GPU actually drops all the way down to 76.8MHz - a tenth of its usual speed. Nintendo is balancing thermals by overclocking one component to the max, while downclocking another to the bare minimum.
Cerny's presentation really made me have PS3's alien architecture vibes, but without all the complexity developers complained so much about. Seems to me Sony struggled a lot to make custom parts with the sole purpose of shifting data as fast as possible inside the system, avoiding bottlenecks and redundancies that waste processing power, time and memory/storage space. How is that in real life? Unfortunately Sony didn't show, and that's were they failed yesterday. In paper, their specs are inferior to XSX but the SSD. You don't make a point about the world's fastest system against the strongest without showing at least some technical demos. Gosh, even Minecraft and a redone Gears 5 worked in MS' favour. I still trust in Cerny, but from now on they must SHOW what PS5 can do, or MS will ride the waves of the power narrative without breaking a sweat.Sorry but I'm worse, and my family too, so I'll make a general answer. If you can do me a favor, if someone asks something that is answered in this answer, please answer me with a link to this answer. If the answer is not answered I will answer as I can.

It's not about knowing everything. I don't give a damn if Fisher has sources, other things he said were much probably pure TROLLING, because they were so exagerated and yet not even explained by him that one could think that. Plus, he never added truly to the discussion, he just shows up and throw a thing (mostly wrong).but how can you expect someone to know everything? like i said you only need one thing exactly right to be legit so means tommy fisher knows someone from ms side.

Do you have exemples of graphics cards benchmarks showing this in practice? I remember that the Vega 64 did not perform as well as the Tflops would suggest compared to the 56, but would be nice to see testes done with RDNA cards, or even Nvidia for that matter.A 36 CU being used 80% is comparable to a 52 CU being used 70%, and the extra frequency makes all parts outside the CU faster, so the real difference between the consoles might not be that large as the numbers show.
He did say it stays at those clocks most of the time and that the downclocks should be minimal, a couple % being enough to decrease heat by 10%.
What I'm asking you is this: based on your knowledge of PC cards and assuming it maintains those high clocks, will the 16% Tflop advantage of Series X amount to a 16% advantage of real performance?
