Wow, people are still attacking the PlayStation 5.
Don't even give those clickbait videos exposure/views
Yeah but it might be stacked on top of the CPU & GPU , look at the image it shows a stacked chip then it also show another board or chip that's being stacked on top of that main chip
My guess would be that it's either the the I/O chip on top of the CPU & GPU or they will have the I/O chip & CPU on the same layer with the GPU stacked on top. Then the other board or chip ( 9) is Wifi , SSD & so on
Sounds crazy i don't believe.
BTW this setup wouldn't have performance/latency penalty?
Nah, games like Dying Light only required a GTX 560 /HD 6870, even Project Cars 2 only requires a GTX 680 or better (in 2017
So one example? there are far more examples of current gen only games (including pc2) requiring PS4 tier or better GPUs as min requirements
he majority of PCs today are laptops, and dev's don't want to give that market up entirely.
Consoles rule AAA development priorities as they make the vast majority of purchases. Laptop gamers wont have trouble upgrading in 2021/2022 as gaming laptops are luxury items anyways, I would think desktop owners are more price conscious.
BTW majority of PCs are potatoes with GPUs less capable than the XB1S doesn't mean they are the target audience for AAA devs
I wouldn't expect any crazy RAM demands either. Max Payne 3 for example required 2GB of system memory, Dying Light required 4GB. Many games released today require 8GB of system memory, so maybe you'll start to see 16GB requirements early into the gen.
Max Payne 3 is last gen game and Dying Light is the exception not the norm (8GB)
16GB RAM would be fine with a fast 3GB/s+ SSDs and 12 core CPUs (3-4 cores for decompression). But to make up for slower drives they'll need more RAM to act as buffer
System requirements will strike a balance between SSD speeds and RAM capacity. Depending of which is more expensive they'll prioritize the other
So PC gamers can expect a raise in amount of RAM to couple SSD mandatory requirements?
A mix of both yeah, but we won't see next gen only games till late 2021 at the earliest, there's plenty of time to upgrade
