At this point people just believe what they want to believe, doesn't matter which side.
Microsoft was slightly custom RDNA 2 GPUs. Sony's PS5 is Custom RDNA ? GPU. PS5 GPU is RDNA is more customized then Microsoft's. It got RDNA2 and RDNA 1 plus some other customization. Though I think PS5 is still considered RDNA2 overall.
Also there is a whisper that the definition of RDNA 2 might have changed slightly. Idk if that effect Xbox Series or the PS5. But rumor is Efficiencies per watt is around 65-70% and the performance is even better then AMD thought it was. But we get more information on RDNA 2 for sure in October.
Richard already looked at the xbox series x gpu die shot and confirmed that its identical to rdna 1.0 5700 series cards.No, both are confirmed custom RDNA2. They'll have their own unique changes I'm sure. I was just pointing out Microsoft's inconsistency around RDNA/RDNA2 that doesn't exist with Zen 2. Zen 2 is always Zen 2 and never referred to as just Zen for example.
I'll be kind of surprised if they don't kill the Pro and just drop a new slim SKU. I don't think it's smart to have a low end premium console muddying the waters. Not like anyone has had them in stock for months anyway.
Yields are very good. Sony doubled the production to 10 mil units till end of March 2021
11 million is more than Xbox One had sold by the end of 2014.11 million is still a LOT IMO
15 million by March 2021 would've been very high anyway. By March 2014, PS4 was only at 7.5 million sold.
No way they're going over $500 if they planned on needing/selling that many so early.
why am I not surprised.

We need particular emoji "Doncabesa triggered".why am I not surprised.
It is crazy. I'm not sure how they can say yield issues when they are making 11 million in 6 months (even higher than previous 10 million)? More like they can't keep up with the demand!
Shit sounds stupid, the updated target was 10 million wtf thy get 15 mil fromSomething doesn't add up here... 15 Million is way too many units. Maybe the numbers are wrong and the original plan was 11 million units?
Also, yield issues and producing 11 million units? What?
11 million is still a LOT IMO
Yes, I was about to say that. They went from 6 to 10 million to meet demand. And now we find out they were aiming to produce 15 million?!I'm so confused. I thought the production was increased to 10m. Now Bloomberg says the production will be reduced by 4m to 11m![]()
Maybe Sony had further plans to increase to 15m after the Craig incident that Bloomberg were not privy to.I'm so confused. I thought the production was increased to 10m. Now Bloomberg says the production will be reduced by 4m to 11m![]()

Maybe a $50 difference, so standard edition would be something like $449 and DE would be $399, just a guess.$350/$450 price incoming?! Sheesh! Xbox DOA if thats the case
I keep thinking a $50 gap not being sufficient to push DE tbh. Sony i assume wants more people picking up the DE as they get a bigger cut in software sales. Have to make it tempting and $50 isn't enough imo to make buyers drop their physical collections in favor of getting the DE.Maybe a $50 difference, so standard edition would be something like $449 and DE would be $399, just a guess.
Btw that would mean standard edition £399 for us lovely folks here in the U.K right?!
Fish and Chips on me lads!![]()
PS4 sold 7.5 million at end of March 2014.Yeah. I believe the PS4 "only" sold around 7 million by April 2014.
If the PS5 is $450 and the DE is under $400.... holy shit.Maybe a $50 difference, so standard edition would be something like $449 and DE would be $399, just a guess.

It can't be can it?$350/$450 price incoming?! Sheesh! Xbox DOA if thats the case
A $299 PS5 DE would be the end of everything.It can't be can it?
Sony adopting PS1 launch strategy, mike drop moment? The 40 minute event is 30 sec of price announcement and mic drop, 39.5 min of black screen.
Nah, not in this day and age. It certainly would be something tho.
My guess would be 399/499...creates a wide enough gap to make me consider the DE and just re-buy some of the games I want to play boosted.
It would also set up the inevitable PS5 Slim DE to hit the magic $299 price around 2023.My guess would be 399/499...creates a wide enough gap to make me consider the DE and just re-buy some of the games I want to play boosted.
Allows for the possibility to drop physical version down to 450 in spring/mid-year next year to keep the ball rolling.
11 million is more than Xbox One had sold by the end of 2014.
Could Sony drop something tomorrow?![]()
