Really? I have seen Cerny's talk and got the gist of what he was saying. I mean, the clock speed advantage is good for the PS5, but I don't think it completely makes up for the CU difference. I guess I could be wrong here, though. From the rumbling all over, it seems the Series X can simply "push more" at the end of the day due it being "wider." What I've been arguing is, despite this, there wont be this side-by-side stark difference. Willing to read more on this if I can be pointed in the right direction.
The CU difference is already seen in the TFlops difference, of course here XSX has the advantage. But having more CU does not necessary means something good, specially at the cost of a lower clock speed.
There are certain benefits of having a faster clock speed, Cerny mentioned rasterization as an example of it. There is a popular Post in this thread that comes from ERA were those benefits are listed.
Again, does that means PS5 is more powerful than XBX? NO , but it means that the configurations are different and we have yet to see
those 15-18% raw power numbers in action.
