The PS5 and Xbox 2 thread - it's happening

[Makabb]

I think people can't grasp the point that there will be nothing special in the hardware inside the new consoles

Soulburner just explained the difference, if ps4 has shitty jaguar cpu from 2012 which was outdated at release and it requires latest i5's and gtx 1060's to run on PC, imagine the PC requirements if suddenly a console will run a latest ryzen.

we will once again find ourselves in a place where a console port will require a monster PC for a few CPU & GPU generations

This thread is an endless circlejerk until they annouce specs. If you believe they're going to put a $1,000+ PC into a $400 console then okay, I really doubt it, but none of us really know until the specs are announced.

We already know one, the CPU is a Zen 2, 8 core / 16 thread, and that is atleast a Ryzen 3700, which is a boss cpu.

The chip will be 100% uncut the same.... the only difference will be GHZ, the console one will be running a 3,2ghz most likely as opposed to 4ghz PC.

The PS4 is quite frankly bullwank. Got a lot more extra faff than the last gen, but absolutely fuck all of the benefits which said faff gets you on a PC.

If the PS5 & that gen is to do anything decent, it needs to recognize it's place as a console and not PC.

Consoles are there for convenience, comfort & simplicity in both use & gaming. They are the yang to the PC's yin. They are the mistress to our wives. Whilstever they try and be something more they'll just come across as shit PC-wannabees.

Wasteland 2, The Dwarves, Pillars etc. None of them work half as well on console as they do PC. They really need to get their heads around this and stick to the Ass Creeds.

This is the stuff we will see in real time on next-gen

Still betting my I7 4790k and 980 GTX will see through the next generation with a few sliders down.

Which will allow me enough time to buy a 5 000 euros machine when the next next gen comes and we all play on Google Stadia.

In 1080p at 30fps or less, 980gtx is getting dated now, you'd probably have to set all sliders to lowest or the most performance ones like shadows.

I'm fine with that.

@25 fps.

NEXT GEN!!!

Latest rumour says PS5 will have 24GB HBM2 ram

 

[taxalot]

I heard a rumor that the PS5 will have 512 GB RAM and will feature a new processor that is 10 Ghz.

 

[BlackAdderBG]

Latest rumour says PS5 will have 24GB HBM2 ram

You can't read your own posted leak? It says in the first 2 lines, it's 8 GB of HBM2 not 24, also the rest according to this will be 16 GB of DDR4.

I predict a $699 and a $799 option at launch.

What the $799 option will have extra, right now is a mystery.

Zep--

Launching at $699 base price would be utterly insane.

 

[sullynathan]

You are crazy if you think Microsoft and especially Sony, will make the $600 mistake again

Picture of the real devkit

Analysis on the Zen2/RDNA vs PC and PS4 pro, some good stuff. PS4 essentialy had a 2008 CPU, RDNA provides 60% increase on performance over GCN alone.

 

[Makabb]

In cinebench benchmark the Zen 2 is 7 times faster than the ps4 cpu.

nani !

 

[Makabb]

Changing my position after this video..... you will need a 2000$ PC not 1500$ to equal out the PS5 for 500$

 

[taxalot]

Two days after the PS5 comes out, you'll see Youtube videos "How to build a PS5-like PC for 400$ with benchmarks that compare to the actual thing.

Quote me on that.

ok, but i can tell you already that it will be not physically possible, because even in 2020 if amd/intel/nvidia will release new gpus and cpus they will have only a few % performance increase over current ones from this year that will be in PS5.

Nah, you wouldn't be able. The thing is if they don't price the consoles around 600$ they will lose too much money. Simple math shows us that for the first 6 months of console sales every 100$ loss per machine is 1B in cash.
