Ebay is dangerous for sellers. Not worth the risk, imo.
yup you have to deal with shipping, returns, lack of adequate seller protection, etc. Same with craigslist but I would say the latter is more about safety. There are shady people out there.

How likely do you think Microsoft will change their Jaguar CPU for a new architecture for the Scorpio? I know Microsoft said it's a 8-core CPU but they did not elaborate more from that.The CPUs for both the PS4 and XBO are they way they are because AMD couldn't deliver what either party was hoping for. There really wasn't much either Sony or MS could do about it in 2013.
No doubt, there are shady people out there. But from the 100+ items I've sold on eBay in the past decade, I've never been ripped off.
I mean....don't ship until you have the money. It's not exactly rocket science.

Zen will not be ready in time. AMD have gone on record stating they do not have any new semi custom CPU contracts for 2017
Unless Scorpio gets delayed to 2018, it will have a Jaguar CPU and Zen is off the table.
OTOH, the GPU situation is much more interesting, since Vega should be available in time. 12GB of GDDR5x and a mid range Vega would easily give us our 6TF compute power and 320GB/sec bandwidth numbers we are looking for.
Yep. But without Zen, i think Scorpio may fall to the same pitfalls some people complain about Pro for, in regards to 60fps.
Hopefully they use Puma atleast for higher clocking potential, or Excavator maybe
tks for clarifying...If AMD doesn't have a strong enough Pro CPU right now for Sony to use, why would they have had one 3 years ago?
And the GPU's at the time compared with the current GPU of the PS4 Pro were over 500$ at minimum with 200watts alone. The GPU of PS4 Pro right now, which is midrange, was the highest end single GPU at the time(7970 upgraded Gigahertz edition)
How hard is it for Sony to make custom parts then? Ian's that what Apple does with there phones/tablets? Make a lot of the innards themselves? I know they basically boast a new chip every keynote.The CPUs for both the PS4 and XBO are they way they are because AMD couldn't deliver what either party was hoping for.

When it comes to CPUs, it's not easy to make your own design your own chip. Apple licenses ARM instruction set and built a solid cpu for themselves with the A10, but that aint cheap at all. There's way more money in the phone/tablet business for Apple than there is in the console business for sony or microsoft.How hard is it for Sony to make custom parts then?

That just seems really silly to rely on other companies for one of your most important products. I could see something like controllers or input devices, but the brains and grunt of your system should be decided wholly by you no?

Game in the UK will sell you a PS4 Pro at launch for £174.99 when you trade in your old PS4 with any 5 games. A bargain for those upgrading.

Wait, so I can transfer PT?With FW 4.0, yes you can!
"You will be able to copy your games, saved data, captured videos and screenshots, system settings, and other content from a standard PS4 to PS4 Pro using a standard Ethernet cable. This process will also work from standard PS4 to standard PS4, PS4 Pro to standard PS4, and PS4 Pro to PS4 Pro provided that both units have system software update 4.00 or higher installed, and the same PSN account is signed into both systems."
It is going to be interesting if Sony will have bundles for the Pro. I am fairly certain at least some retailers might come BF and Sony themselves might have a limited time bundle then.
Tomb Raider I guess but the real big one is Horizon after launch.wonder what game will be the "poster child" for the pro at launch. seems like most of the AAA titles will have some level of support

Probably old games too like Uncharted 4.Tomb Raider I guess but the real big one is Horizon after launch.

That sucks about Zen Is it possible that the Xbox can use Puma, which is a slightly more improved version of Jaguar?Zen will not be ready in time. AMD have gone on record stating they do not have any new semi custom CPU contracts for 2017

Yikes I didn't realize Zen was behind. Not another console with that weak sauce Jaguar CPU...can't take it.Zen will not be ready in time. AMD have gone on record stating they do not have any new semi custom CPU contracts for 2017

This is wrong and the article which stated this was click-bait. It's actually quite the opposite.Zen will not be ready in time. AMD have gone on record stating they do not have any new semi custom CPU contracts for 2017

which tv? Leaning towards the Samsung ks8000Pre-ordered PS4 Pro.
Bought 4K HDR TV.
Bought Resident Evil 4 for PS4.
My body is ready for Leon in moderate polygon budget and beautiful colours as soon as the Pro reaches my doorstep. Can't fucking wait.
I'm really hoping some of my backlog get pro patches.
Witcher 3 and Arkham Knight would be amazing.
I have faith in cd project red to come through.
Damn, guess I'll be playing the ps5 definitive edition.CDPR already said no to a Pro patch

We just got a 65" KS800D which is the Costco model of the KS8000 (they use different model numbers to avoid price matching and differentiate warrantee, but it's also cosmetically slightly different with a darker metallic bezel which I prefer.) So far I'm very impressed despite worries about the edge-lit nature of the set. Uniformity is surprisingly good with just a little inconsistency around the center of the set, and a slight light tinge at the bottom of the display in brighter scenes. Saturated colors are striking and black levels in darker scenes are good as anything but a FALD or OLED set.
I won't have a chance to calibrate it properly for a while yet and don't have a game console at this residence, but feedback from owners who have put it through its paces has been consistently positive.
