But Xbox said it's the most powerful and fastest console ever 🤔
They actually didn't 😬😂

See tweet above..seems jason knows nothing is back pedalling on tflops...bad signs.

Imo as i suspected, ps5 could be lower raw power but easy to develop ala GC vs og Xbox

Umm...what? He never claimed to know the number...only that both were above Stadia's tflop number and the GPUs are more powerful than RTX 2080. Which is true for the Series X.

Only disappointing thing is that I doubt we see the final PS5 console design tomorrow. Like the box. I think this will be a lot like that February 2013 event for PS4. They showed the controller, but not the box until June.

Also, just want to point out my dumb shit post asking for Phil daddy and Cerny papa to gimme the specs.... and we got the entire Xbox spec blowout the next day. And now PS5 specs 2 days later. You’re welcome. Just gotta ask nicely sometimes.
Really?? Damn, I was really hoping to see the final box design.

As I mentioned just yesterday, MS's strategy may hugely backfire on them. Now that the specs are out (for those who care about them) Sony announces more information. I'm a firm believer that they were just waiting for this moment and used the GDC excuse to play it down.

With that said, I'm not expecting a 13.8TF machine, nor do I care. I think both systems are fairly similar, with the XB edging raw power and the PS5 edging in speed and optimization.

Chances of we seeing a game running on the PS5?

I think they show PS4 games running on it, similar to what Microsoft shown.
O dont think sony will show as much as Microsoft did yesterday, i dont think we will see the box but i hope im wrong.

I think it will have similarities to cernys ps4 2013 presentation, but not as broad. Cerny will talk about the GPU and its RDNA2 Raytracing features, I think the focus will be on there ssd, it will be pretty similar to what Microsoft has said, as the 2 machines are very similar. There is no secret sauce apart from sonys slightly better ssd tech. I think xsx will be ahead on BC though.
 
Because when you can only move game data into the ram at something like 60MB/S you need to have a lot more data already in the ram that may not be needed in the immediate future. When you can stream it at at least 2.4GB/s (probably faster based on the decompression tech mentioned if the game data is compressed) you can Swap in the data into the ram extremely quickly when required.

If Mark Cerny reveals tomorrow that PS5 SSD speed is 5-10 GB/sec and works in a similar fashion like XsX, does that mean that PS5 has more assets they can load, and at a faster rate, therefore better graphics? All signs are pointing to PS5 SSD being faster and better in some form or capacity

Just a small prediction, but if the PS5 has more TF, then I'm going to think people are going to start running with the 25TF narrative.

You know that 25TF is simply Fp16 which was available on PRO but not X?

PS5 will support FP16 and will be higher than XsX provided PS5 has higher TF.

It's not FP16, people are adding regular shader performance(12TF) and RT dedicated hardware performance (13TF) to reach that. It's like having 12 apples, adding 13 oranges and saying you have a total of 25 apples.

I mean, i expect to see the improvements of ps4 games running on the ps5 but if that's the only thing, that will be a bit disappointing. For the PS4 announcement, i remember that they talked about stuff like Killzone SF, Dreams, Knack, Driveclub, etc.

And didn't the Godfall devs said that we would be seeing more recent gameplay "soon"?

This is my comment about it here where I mentioned the link and explained everything about it.

Surely they have to be close on power for Sony to do a reveal so quickly after the full specs of Series X are revealed. With all the Covid-19 panic they could have easily sat back and possibly done a delay and small re-design to boost power by delaying for 6 months etc. I’m no expert in this obviously and don’t know how feasible that is. They would have obviously lost the first to market boost as I assume they will both still launch near Holiday 2020. It’s still very uncertain though and I’m still not sure if we will see that. I am confident the PS5 will be at least 10.5 - 11 Teraflops. Can’t wait till tomorrow!

Nice to have you and your avatar onboard ;)
 

Yeah, this data shows just like Klee stated, PS5 is more powerful than XSX. But maybe Klee was referring to specific elements?? Maybe CU's are higher, CPU cache numbers are different???

Oh, HGamer explained

It depends on sort of presentation it is, i think sony do need to show something next gen, when ms have shown a hellblade 2 in engine footage, but it has been labelled "a deep dive into the PS5s system architecture"

Its a video presentation, so i expect PowerPoints and slides and cerny just being cerny and talking about each hardware component and what it will mean for games, i think it will be technical presentation and not a venue to try and sell ps5 to the masses.
