I am really impress than the console settings are basically hight-ultra but I really don't understand why
Alex have the necessity to screw in some moment his videos, like when he start again "This impressive this
behave better than another GPU with X flops".

I mean is not impressive for that reason for God sake when this guys of DF will afront the fact they were
wrong in repeat to the nauseum marketing campaign of flops, the flops are not all, also not is not because
is bad port is what is.

Everytime I read or heard that DF for some reason cannot make mistakes I remember that all DF guys
said multiple times "have more TF so should perform better" and they really have contacts so they know that
the delta was not so big or even in favor of XSX as the marketing said but even then they didn't care because
is not like DF doesn't love to ask this kind of things to their contacts.

Finally Alex should mention which CPU is using if he is using a 3800x/5800x or better that is important.
It better NOT be a Zen 3 equivalent CPU, the PCMR community's devastation would be overbearing and non-stop.

I almost sure Alex is using a Zen 3 if this is true he "forget" to mention because now that is not important, a CPU of that
gen can have easily 10% more performance using the same GPU of course always that your GPU can deliver more.

Well I wasn't lying, when I told you, that 1000USD PC of your friend cannot beat new consoles at all : )
I sent him the video and now he's saying:

"Ps5 is still limited in all other specs.
Everything else but gaming
And pcs can be upgraded every year with new parts.
For now

GPUs get cheaper year by year. Ps5 wont be the best for the full run

Its really good for now strictly gaming wise since it can pack more for cheaper. The PC Gpus have a bunch of stuff on it for other things like overall performance"

Me: "It will be a while until you can get a pc build for the price of the ps5 so"

Him: "
Thats gonna be easily 2-3 years
PC has more to offer title wise imo for multiplayer gamers. Ps5 is good for single player
Like cyberpunk how itll run on that"

Me: "Cyberpunk isn't getting a next gen upgrade until next year so that comparison won't be made anytime soon. And sure multiplayer gaming is the best for pc but I think it's dumb to invest in a huge ass rig to play games that look like valorant but that's just me"

Him:
"Reason for rig is streaming

Discord easy access

Games that are only on steam

and it's parts can be upgraded any time. Customization is endless"

Well I guess you cannot expect "gaming console" to do office work, same argument as always from the PC crowd. Since basically PS2 era, when PC gaming started to getting same level experiences.
 
"
...
Customization is endless"
A console can easily has a life of 6 years if you want your PC have a decent performance in that time life you
will need to upgrade:

-GPU
-CPU (the situation with intel stuck 4 cores was anormal)
-Motherboard (at least you have luck)
-Probably even now we should include a decent NVME

The two first components can easily reach and exceed the price of a console.

If you said he will never upgrade that PC the breach between a console and the PC will decrement
with the pass of the years because the optimizations still happens in console space meanwhile
your PC not so much.

Use the argument that PC can be use for more things is not so different than say I can play in my
smartphone but also can be use for more things.

For me the real reasons of why choose a PC above a console are:

1.- The money is not really a problem
2.- You want the best performance not matter what
3.- You don't care the console exclusives
4.-You want to play some specific games which are in PC

The prices are not so different now for old games and also the PC community is not know for buy games
is release date in some way they are similar to the people who bought a high end smartphone but don't
want to pay for a game.

I bet he used a 5950X 16 core Zen3 CPU at like 4.5 GHz lol

"The differences this time around are really minimal on PS5 and X Series. They both run at the same resolution (2160p) at 60fps. I've only found hugely slight differences in grass draw distance and antialiasing in favor of PS5, but for all practical purposes there are no differences. In the case of Series S, the game runs at a maximum resolution of 1080p. It also appears to have less hair density in NextGen physiques. "

Another win? Well, it's humiliating already.

Are we sure it's not dynamic res?

PS5 really Impressive for a cross gen game in Valhalla. Sony really put out some good HW. Yeah if u have a PC you have the option to upgrade more often but bang for buck it's a no brainer, also show me a AAA game that loads in 2 seconds from the menu like Miles Morales does.

They rereleased the 1 year subs at a higher price in the regions they pulled them from.

🤷‍♀️
Oh are those back?

Not in the US.. so not sure what you mean (MS directly doesn't sell them, it's unclear whether 3rd parties are on some existing amount of codes that eventually won't be replenished)

Calling fake news on the 4chan leak. All of its low hanging fruit and we know MS will be there in some capacity. Another glaring omission is elden ring not being mentioned when Bandai Namco has made tweets about the game awards as well. That doesn’t necessarily mean elden ring is guaranteed but, come on.

They pulled them in select regions including the US at the same time, they’re slowly re-introducing them to regions like Latin America and Brazil at a higher price point not too long ago.

We shall see what they do with the US. But I feel they want to bundle up more with their streaming and game pass.

Sure but not every leaker knows EVERYTHING that will be shown. They could still have some legit info, but who knows.

They pulled the $5/month option to make Xbox Live cost $10/month and keep Game Pass at $10/month, so that Game Pass Ultimate at $15/month LOOKS like a better value.

Better yet, he used a 20 core Intel 10900K @ 5Ghz? lol
Current gen games do not tax the cpus. Neither the ps5 or the pc cpus are being used to their fullest. If you turn on cpu usage monitors on pc, you will see all the games top out at 20-50% even at 120 fps.

He probably didn't need a 20 core cpu but for the proposes of comparing GPUs, going with a high end cpu eliminates any bottlenecks the cpu might have had during testing which means the results you are getting here are strictly gpu bound for a more accurate picture of the ps5 gpu.

When doing a GPU benchmark, which Alex is doing here, you always try to eleminate all other bottlenecks beside the GPU. So you run your benchmark with the fastest CPU, RAM, SSD, etc. This way you can measure the GPUs at their peak performance. If you don't do this, you will compare the PS5's GPU to a 2060 Super running below it's potential performance, gimping the result. If you make your CPU slow enough, the PS5 would even beat the RX 3090, which would be incorrect. As you can see, the 10900K is not stressed and so should be the PS5's CPU. Thus the PS5's GPU should also not be constraint by it's CPU in this case, making this a rahter fair comparison.

My theory is it was less thought out than this. (although I like your theory too)

Xbox's numbers were low-key terrible right before they ditched the 12 month live cards. Like everyone was praising them for YoY increases, while ignoring that their competitors all had much better years last year, as well a higher percentage increase than they did, by far. MS got a covid bump that was meager compared to Sony/Nintendo.

I think it was just a bean counter asking them to increase revenue.

360p version up

Edit:

- A bug can make the game run at 45~50fps on XSX. To solve this restart the console
- Texture detail, anysotropic filtering, foliage density, all lower on Series X
- Resolution in Quality mode tends to hover between native 4K and 1800p on PS5, goes down to 1440p often on Series X
- Reduction in LODs on XSX.
- 120Hz mode turns Tesselation off on Series X completely. All the rest becomes even worse than the PS5.


Ouch

Holy shit the difference in Dirt 5 is massive.
