Hey to speculate again, I'm not tech savvy at all, but 11.6 sounds very good and reasonable, especially if the aim is greater efficiency than the competition. 12+ is in line with most insiders, and more promising for VR (11.6 is promising as well, more power the better) If the ps5 does both, God damn Sony.
 
Why did I return to this thread... and I so swore to stay away until after PS5's unveiling.

There is 0% chance that the final retail version of the PS5 is 11.6tf if the XSX really is a 12tf machine. Make no sense from a marketing point of view.

But you know, some people need to be believe that, for once, MS is going to release the most powerfull console in the market at launch. They need that pyrrhic victory :messenger_tears_of_joy:

I see no problem XSX being 12TF and PS5 at 11.6TF. There will practically be no difference.

There will be other factors at play that will swing advantage or disadvantage for either side.

11.6TF would basically indicate that Sony would already massively push their GPU clocks in order to reach that number, because if they wouldn't it would make zero sense to not slightly up the clocks to tie the SX
I think that's what he meant

I think you did not read what I said "from a marketing point of view".

There is a big difference btw to be the most powerfull console in the market or not when you are going to advertise your product.

MS knows very well about what I am talking about ;)

Just thought about with tflop count.

+9-10 GitHub and Xbox wins
+10-11 GitHub loses and Xbox wins
+11-12Github loses and Xbox narrowly wins or ties
+12Github loses and PS5 slightly wins
13- Fuck... Sony, really, slightly advantage Sony.

Either way going to be fun to read comments. Looking forward to reading Dealers Twitter if odium, Heisenberg, Osiris, Klee, Moriarty, Reiner, or even Fisher are correct.

I can't wait too.

Each one of them surely has their own estimate, and there can only be one winner....... unless they are all wrong.

Out of all the insdiers, how many even got Series X 12tf RDNA 2.0 right? And that's after MS even said "double the power of X" and RDNA based. So right there you already got clues. Pretty hard to be totally off base when MS already fed hints. Even going to the name, I don't think I saw one even predict Series X as the product name.

As for PS5, that recent 5600xt 7tf might be PS5 Lite.

You knew know. Maybe MS and Sony have both a low end 4-7tf system and a 12tf system.

What market though? Fanboy market? PS5 did not sell 100+ million by selling to handful of fanboys alone.

PS5 will be fine at 11.6. There will be practically no difference.

MS can trump that 0.4 difference all they want, the playstation fanbase will not give a damn.

Who ran away? One got banned for posting fakes, everybody else is here?

I personally don't care if we get any leaks or not, but I've seen a pattern with real/fake insiders and if memory serves me right, this never happened last time. Many of the insiders post a wishy-washy vague riddled mess of a leak, everyone naturally responds with confusion and eventually frustration due to lack of clarity, real/fake insiders then say they won't post anything any more citing hate as the reason and stop posting leaks. That's what I meant by "running away", I'm aware they're still around.

You better not be on about me, because I had something serious happen I don’t take lightly, and if you are, you know exactly what you can do.

I'm not aware of your personal situation, I haven't been following the last few pages.

Besides, I don’t remember last gen one major console maker changing plans mid way through,

Change plans? Wasn't this a fake rumour to make Sony look bad?

and then 6 months from release a major pandemic that effects both life AND the market hit? So please tell me what in the flying fuck you’re talking about?

This has nothing to do with my post but I'll say this, the Coronavirus isnt the only crisis that's affecting us, there are crises far greater in other parts of the world that have existed for much longer, the virus just makes their problems worse. Its only us sitting in our cosy homes in first world countries that have the time to think about a damn virus.

100+ million PS fanbase is not in a hurry. PS5 news can wait.

It's the nervous xboys who are eager to know what Sony is cooking. Sony's silence makes them unstable. Exhibit a: Tim and the rest of his dogs.

While I agree with you it’s already mid March and we’re still waiting for the reveal. Sony can have the luxury of waiting with being the market leader but that also says Sony might be facing some challenges.

The IGN lady makes good points...



I disagree with her. If we're just talking about waiting until June to reveal then that's fine, Sony has a great marketing team. But if we're talking about product shortages AND delays? Nope, there's nothing comfortable about that position. Especially if MS has a good jump out of the gate with an attractive price.

The pandemic might have botched their reveal plans. There's always a challenge for every new gen product release. But I think they're fine. I wouldn't complain if they release some info soon.

GitHub 10TFs? lol

In my view GitHut already lose in all fronts.

Remember the Bloomberg report which stated Sony were investing in an expensive cooling system for the PS5, maybe 11.6 is the optimum level for the PS5 to run quietly for long periods of time. Anything more won't put stress on the GPU but may compromise on Sony's objective for the PS5 operating at a quiet level. That's just pure speculation of course.

PS5 news cannot wait much longer. Sony's silence makes everyone unstable.

that would mean 48CUs at around 1.9ghz, or 44CUs at around 2ghz.
I mean it could be 🤷‍♂️

Handful of active forum goers do not represent the 100+ million of playstation fanbase.

I, myself, hope Sony would release info soon. I wanted them to do that since last year when Cerny made an interview with wired.

Playstation fanbase though is bigger than neogaf or reddit. Sony still have big releases for PS4 this year.
