Worry not good sir, currently accepting seat reservations. Departure date to be confirmed.
 
Benji guessed above $499 for seX with loss.

These two next-gen systems will have pretty similar specs. If they do launch at $499, they'll be eating $300-$400 of the BOM to get to that launch price, and that will be from a strong negotiating position since they will be buying materials in bulk. I don't see any other company besides these two that can take on that kind of a risk and survive.

So let's see...

56 CU
16 GB HBM2
8 GB DDR4
SSD Cache? RERAM?
12.3 TF

All for PS5

This is what your claiming your spirit guide told you eh. I think we need to get your spirit guide vetted 😁

I think he's trolling, i don't even know what to think anymore...
 
A simple change in clocks can make this Tflops variate more than this, I believe it will be around of it. It depends a lot of what Microsoft will show, Sony for sure will prefer keep your machine as cold as possible, as long as it remains faster than Microsoft's console.
Who is the source ? A dev ? Can you get vetted here by a mod ? We have had so many fake insiders so U can imagine why we r skeptical

Are you applying for vetting or are you going to leave in a minute?

I think a more interesting question is what would you want?

1. Kate Beckinsale one night stand and 8TF PS5

2. Jerking yourself off and 12TF PS5
 
That might be the case, but MS did not know that PS4 would get 8GB. They did know their GPU was weaker and hoped the (perceived) memory difference would make up the difference.

Up until the last few moments even Sony was not sure if they could secure 8GB of memory. Even then, though, they probably had at least a couple of people who associated with Sony guys hearing rumors about possible 8GB GDDR5 before Sony actually made the announcement themselves publicly.

I can assure you, MS was nowhere near as surprised about 8GB GDDR5 in PS4 as we were when the news was officially made at 2013 PS Meeting, just like how MS will be nowhere near as surprised by whatever Sony announces about PS5 at this year's meeting (or how Sony may've been nowhere near as surprised as we were about XSX specs or features MS have announced so far, or the XSX at the TGAs past December).

Regarding the PS MEETING "leak/rumor".

Four easy things to tell it is a fake :

1) Many things sounds way too good to be true. It is a thirsty fanboys dream.
2) The next Gran Turismo is not going to be called 7. I think they already confirmed that GT Sports is GT 7.
3) PS5 is not going to have full BC for all Playstation consoles
4) Too much detailed information for a single leak.

Also you can see that this was created by a person who is eagerly reading all the news and rumors and tries to expand on them with their own "sauce".
Nice try. I like those rumors, but because I like them that also means it is more likely to be a fake.

Dunno about the third one; if they go via emulation there's nothing stopping them from having all PS consoles supported. Yes, it wouldn't be via native hardware, but software emulation accuracy has improved by leaps and bounds since 2006, for MANY consoles. Software emulation IIRC is basically how the X does it, and people have no major issues there.

The people buying these next-gen consoles that want to play older games on them don't care about 100% hardware emulation accuracy, otherwise they would get an FPGA-based console (if one exists for their system, like it does for SNES or MegaDrive), or just go buy the original consoles off eBay or some retro games shop.

Everyone else is more than satiated with software emulation and PS5 should have the power to do software emulation for PS3 and downward. And going by the Github leak, it should have native hardware compatibility with PS4 and PS4 Pro titles. Honestly this whole back-compat and "will it or won't it" thing is the least debatable issue with PS5 imho; it's gonna have emulation support for all generation PS home consoles, no doubt about it.

The other three points you mention though are pretty much on the money and give away that leak being fake.

This generation it will be all about the games. I have no idea what has or has not changed but the last hard spec info I heard was that both were > 10 and X was 11.6 while the 5 was 12.4 (I am still standing on this hill)I was also told that the ray tracing on one was the same crap that was slapped onto the 1080ti (which I shared a long time ago) and that the performance of BOTH consoles was a bit better that of a 2080 super. Also for the millionth time they are supposedly so close in power that if you were to fart in a room while playing both systems the one you were closest to would have a slight frame rate advantage due to the excess gas helping absorb some of the heat. (I kid) Also I think that I just may get my Bloody Symphony, Thank you uncle Phil.



Dear GOD, please let all of this be true. I mean ALL OF IT! 🙏🙏🙏
