We should get someone to compile a list (not too long) of questions that we think he/she will answer.

But as was mentioned here already he hinted at PS5 being loud in another post.

It only makes sense that Sony is the one that's willing to lose $100 per console. MS has shown that they aren't willing to with the Xbox One, Xbox One X, Xbox One SAD.

Most multi-plats are on PC, weak hardware is everywhere there. But, I guess they don't bother to optimize for the lower cards on PC.

Do we need vaseline and safety boots too? No?...
He didn't just hint at it, he straight up claimed it was loud, which isn't surprising at all since Sony has a history of loud consoles. It would be extremely surprising if Lockhart ends up being loud. Series X is already confirmed to be whisper quiet.

Yep. Microsoft is not known for making loud consoles while Sony is.

How else are devs complaining about it, which multiple people with sources from Jason Schreier to DF have repeated as well.

Isn't Lockhart just a trojan to boost initial sales until the big boys drop in price and gamepass?

Tommy Fisher says PS5's noise is about the same or slightly worse than Series X, he also hinted the BOM for PS5 is $600 with $100 loss.

He did not say anything about Sony, it was literally in the same sentence were they were complaining about Lockhart.

A mod said he couldn’t be vetted cause he lacked sufficient information. You think his info is still good?
No, it was Osiris. I agree though, there's no reason to take TF seriously.

Yea.. I find it hard to swallow that Microsoft, who has consistently made super quiet consoles since xbox one, is suddenly now making a really loud lower end next gen console. Also, the xbox one x dev kit served as a dev kit for practically all xbox one era consoles. Microsoft designed it that way due to the ability in place to target all the systems from just the one dev kit and their toolset is designed that way. Why send a second dev kit for lockhart when they can simply utilize the one series x dev kit using the same exact method (architectures between the two are practically identical in every way with the exception of ram and GPU power). Hell, if xbox one x dev kits could simulate performance for xbox one s and og xbox one, why can't the series x dev kit also do the same?
I don't think Microsoft is really sending out a lockhart dev kit. I think the series x dev kit IS the lockhart dev kit.

[Digital Foundry] PlayStation 5/ Xbox Series X New GPU Spec Leak Analysis: 9.2TF vs 12TF?
It either resembles the retail chip, or it’s an early test chip for Sony to get working on backward compatibility. And the real chip is better. Let’s hope for the latter. Keep in mind the docs are only 6-7 months old. Highly unlikely anything drastic would change with out a launch delay They...

Mod didn't stop him from posting insider info though so why not? And his BOM lines up with Osiris, if in fact Osiris is talking about PS5.

I want to start with saying that I agree with what you're saying. I can see why the cheaper console could in theory be loud though. Microsoft may put less money in the cooling aspects of the console, thus making it hotter and louder. In the end though, I feel that its the playstation that will be the loudest of the 3 consoles.
I've put one together, let me know if I'm missing any obvious.

Exactly, the very premise itself that all of a sudden now this is a problem is just plain bizarre, and I really hope nobody buys it, but.. yea. Did weak PCs hold back Metro Exodus or control? There are literally levels to this stuff and there will continue to be well into the next two console generations. PCs and consoles being too weak to explore RT didn't stop a significant investment in getting Ray Tracing working on Metro Exodus and Control.

PS5 stronger than SX
PS5 louder than SX
Lockhart is a pain in the ass
These are all old leaks. PS5 was said to be slightly more powerful than SX. So much so that Matt (reliable insider that used to post here) would guess that it's going to be stronger in the end.

Will have to see. They're using a far more efficient architecture all around with a far more efficient node process, and are even running lower tflops than Xbox One X. I see it being fairly quiet. They're already saving a lot of money on the build already by going lower in the specs. They will have decent cooling to keep it quiet also, I'm sure.

Won't contest any of this because these are all good points and do factor into a drive's overall real-world performance metrics. I'll have to read reviews on the Gigabyte drive in question, but one other thing I"ll add is that Cerny could've still been technically right if he's referring to that speed in terms of game software using it.
It's not a big secret that vast majority of PC games aren't programmed to use SSDs to their full capability. In fact Star Citizen is the first real example I can think of, but even they are limited by what Windows will allow them to do in terms of virtual memory mapping, and the fact they can't rely on a single standardized software stack and block of APIs for memory access to and from the drive that could be optimized by the likes of Sony of MS for their systems since all their systems will be the same spec with the same components across millions of units.

I always believed, and still do, series x will be the clearly. stronger system. Guess we'll have to see, but it's seemingly starting to gel as if what we currently know about PS5 from specific leaks (from AMD tests) could in fact be final PS5, though I hope it isn't.

I swear it's like a requirement for legitimacy. I picture the scenario goes something like this:
*Nextgen devkit spotted*
Cleaner 1: "oh shit do you see what I see?!"
Cleaner 2: "omg wtf is that"
Cleaner 1: "it's the B.E.A.S.T"
Cleaner 2: "omfg"
Cleaner 1: "we have to take a picture of this thing and post it on neogaf"
Cleaner 2: "f neogaf! We'll have to be vetted by that kratos dude"
Cleaner 1: "f that then. That other place era! Crawling with people"
Cleaner 2: "yeaaaaa but too many bitches"
Cleaner 1: "ugh.... Twitter! Everyone's on it!"
Cleaner 2: "*nods* let's do it!"
Cleaner 1: "ready?"
Cleaner 2: "ready"
Cleaner 1: "Potato cam?"
Cleaner 2: "you know it
"*Click*

Are you saying that Lockhart has its own physical devkit?

Microsoft fronts about caring for consumers but then goes and makes a console with 4 tflops that most of their consumers will play on. It's not about choice, it's just marketing and PR.

This (osiris' info) comes in line with that pastebin which said that ps5 is 'loud as fuck'. The dev kit at least. Hopefully the final product will have better cooling.
But seriously, after the loud ps4 and the complaints about the noise, Sony making an even louder console would be nothing less than a colossal clusterfuck.
Well, time to drill some holes again, I guess.

At this point, MS should go for 'world's quietest console' in its PR campaign.

were you not impressed that I was the first person after mod of war comment to flash you out ? Haha I immediately asked you about your opinion. Another guess is that you are a known person in the industry like mike Ybarra .
