Nine times out of 10, insiders are wrong.
Point me to links showing me truth.
Two people on GAF might be right.

In my history of gaming, trust few.
Sit back and enjoy the funnies.

RDNA is the latest spec focus
Everyone was saying PS5 is close to SeX.
And after PS5 is RDNA 2 it’s 13-14 TF?
Like this post if you agree.
No I don't agree as I don't understand what u said 👀🤣

Land of CDPR and GOG.
I have some wonderful memories involving someone born in Poland.

Yeah, many good things come from there.
Are we just flying past the fact that polish women just scream and yell their heads off, then slam the phone on the ground only to continue the conversation 2 minutes later like nothing happened?
My other half is polish she has 3 sisters and her mom.
Every time the phone rings i am running for my life

If it ends up as 11+ vs. 12, then MS really needs to beat Sony on price to get people willing to leave their digital library behind IMO.
If TF are close I don’t think MS will price war it.

they clearly had a TF advantage with X and definitely didn’t bargain bin it.

Several things I’ve said have been right, just FYI. That doesn’t matter, as I’ll stick up for everybody else here and say that shit changes so much that you just don’t know one day to the next with this damn virus.

However...

Not the first time I see you saying you were right about things you said. Could you please tell me what have you predicted that was right?

Damn, I should have made a pastebin and 20 alt accounts to go with it. I could've been "famous" for a few weeks, maybe. Missed opportunities...

My wife taught English in Poland for a few years and speaks fluent Polish. We go to g’dansk on holiday every year.

We love the place. I’ll have nothing bad said about the Polish. Far more polite than your average UK chav that’s for sure.
Nice people nice places but after she made me climb up the hill in zakopane instead of taking the train i have no desire to ever go back there.

I don't think the pricing strategy of X will end up being at all relevant to Series X. X came out when the install base war was well over. Series X is their chance to capitalize on everything they've been lining up over several years. In my view, X was their way to restart a narrative, and Series X is their hopeful way to capture market share. I could be way off base, but I really think next generation has been their focus well before X launched.

Speaking Polish fluently is something to behold. People spend years here and still no way they can pass for locals. It's terribly complicated and we have very peculiar phonemes. By the way, I'm an English teacher by trade. I started learning the language through games because you had to if you wanted to play them.

Maybe if you learnt programming and worked as a developer maybe people would take interest in what you have to say.

Being sarcastic and sounding off on others is not very endearing.....

I have nothing to add, so just do humour.

I don’t think this has been posted yet, but wccf has also posted the leak from @o’dium. Although it seems like they made a miscalculation.
They are stating 11.06 TFLOPS but 52x64x2x1.743 should be ~ 11.6TFLOPS.
Well I’m looking forward to the release, I would be very pleased with 11.6 tf.

She constantly gets told that she’s amazing at it, by poles. It’s such a hard language to speak, so many different ways to say the same thing that changes based on the context of saying it. Always impresses me.

It’s the current spec.
1) Any idea on when MS and Sony have to finalize specs for manufacturing purposes?

2) Are there any signs that either company has enough cooling overhead to increase processor speed in a reactionary manner (or for pre-planned marketing purposes)?

They will be done with design already, both of them

Xbox has a tower which helps air flow, Ps5 we dont know but Sony have a double sided cooling patent if you search in this thread hard enough .... so who knows....?

Just to be clear 52@1749 was correct guess .correct ? Which you said they might increase to 1850 to 1900 since the head room is there ?

There’a a possibility of both a slight up clock, but I’ve been told more likely not, and maybe even a slight downclock. But the way it was worded to me was along the lines of its so incremental it won’t make much difference either way, but does make difference in terms of heat and other aspects. So, I can’t say one way or the other, sorry.

N NickFire you can look at past examples of console release and manufacturing schedules for this, BUT, I’ll say again... Corona has put a VERY shit spanner in things, and nothing is following the same time scale or plan.

On 2), amazingly my Xbox friends are actually locked up tighter than a school on national Gary Glitter day. I can’t get much of anything, at all, out of them. BUT, the one thing I did hear, and can’t back this up so take this as me just talking, but they have a fair bit of flexibility in their DK, to the point that they could push it a bit harder if they wanted. The kits run cold, very cool, and very silent, actually quiet than the X, which has a bit of a whine to it. But as I said, I can’t get anything out of them... believe me, IVE TRIED. Mega excited for what Xbox have cooking myself 😢

Just to add, for no ambiguity, im still of the opinion the SX will be more powerful over all. It will have a few areas faster than the PS5, and the Ps5 will have a few areas faster than the SX, but I’m talking a lot more marginal than people may be hyping up. So when I say more powerful, I mean like giving one kid 100 sweets and the other 110. You’re still getting a shit load of sweets, when you think about last gen you only got 10 or so sweets.

Its as close as damn it is to swearing, and it’s going to be B-E-A-UTIFUL.

TechpowerUp updated it yesterday. Was there any new leak or rumor that could lead them to this?


It's just one dude trying to keep up with a massive wiki of GPU specs, it's not some arbiter of truth, it's just following the rumors until official numbers are out.

Seems they just corrected it between the last time TPU came up and now, but it had 320Gflops for the Wii U until recently, it's a handy wiki but nothing but that and just as susceptible to being wrong

nothing about the RT solution?.Special sauce?.AMD RT RDNA2 tech?. That ex Sony engineer tweet sounded as Sonys solution could be different than vanilla RDNA 2 tech...

I think a lot things such as the "special sauce" are being kept close to the chest by Sony so we won't hear anything credible IMO. All hail the great and powerful Cerny!
 
Nice! Man the 2004 'remix and remaster' sucks. Not as much as RiP's though, that was a travesty.
Hyped for the next record now, and if it's as heavy/heavier than RiP like Dave said last year, it's gonna be awesome.

I'd even take a Dystopia sequel, that album kicks ass.

Yeah I try to avoid those editions 😂, I don't mind remasters so long as the mix is left alone but yeah. Dystopia was so good, Kiko is a freak.

Anyway, you know, I have a feeling that ps5 is exactly 12 tfs 😂

Other than common knowledge no. Sony are using the standard AMD RT solution, and MS are using DXR. Which will be better? That remains to be seen. I would actually put money on DXR, as that would seem to maybe get a bit more use outside? But that’s my own take on it, no facts there.
