Is it as many tflops as a switch pro tho?

 

[Mr Moose]

10.28 with boost - peak performance.

9.2 on avrage?

If that's the case, then yeah I am disappointed lol. If it's not $399 (whatever UK price that is)... I ain't buying it.

 

[McHuj]

Klee had the spec sheet, right?

 

[Mrdeveus]

SSD is twice as fast as MS tho but XBOX is way better at every other area

[LiquidRex]

Having only 36CUs it puts sony in a pretty comfortable position for a lower price.

Yep but weaker fps ray tracing and resolution over XSX.... The XSX is more or less future proof over the PS5

 

[Kampfradler]

"Sony's customised version of the AMD RDNA 2 GPU features 36 compute units running at frequencies that are capped at 2.23GHz, effectively delivering 10.28TF of peak compute performance. However, again, while 2.23GHz is the limit and also the typical speed, it can drop lower based on the workloads being demanded of it. "

sounds like 9,xy tf when stressed

 

[johnjohn]

so Series X has better GPU, CPU and faster memory bandwidth...

 

[Jonsoncao]

It ain't 9.2 though lol

36 CU was spot on, now the 2.23Ghz clock will put even more burden on the cooling system.

I guess I can deal with it since it will be similar to my PS4 helicopter launching.

 

[RookX22]

I still think pc and PS5 will be the best bet. Sony isnt stupid Cerny isnt stupid, cant wait to see how this will play out with real world preformance.

 

[Mr Moose]

662k people watching.

 

[pasterpl]

Am I reading this correctly? Xbsex will have faster memory as well?

 

[Bladed Thesis]

Why does the specs list the SSD not at 1TB? I'm assuming their accounting for the space needed for the OS and MS will do the same even though they listed their SSD as 1TB.

 

[Reindeer]

It says variable clock speed, which probably means it's performs below 10.28 on average with 10.28 being boost.

 

[Gavin Stevens]

I don’t... I’m actually shocked. I mean, fuck my contact, I’ll be onto that later, but what I mean is everything is worse except the SSD speed, but the SSD speed isn’t going to make up for all THAT...?

No, this is a bullshit fake out.

There’s a Pro version coming as well, isn’t there?

 

[CrustyBritches]

All insiders were wrong. Data miners had it right since early 2019. Apisak, Komachi, AquariusZi all had it right.

This is still a great system. I think it was built around SSD and BC primarily. Very exciting.

Sony's customised version of the AMD RDNA 2 GPU features 36 compute units running at frequencies that are capped at 2.23GHz, effectively delivering 10.28TF of peak compute performance.

from eurogamer, so this is max, the average might be even lower.

And now we know, why MS kept emphasizing all clocks are "locked" on everything like GPU, CPU, SSD. I think they knew this "boost" mode on PS5

 

[Mozart36]

No secret sauce then, I guess.

 

[MadAnon]

Remember all the douches who bullied githubers out of this thread? Turns out both chips were in Github.

 

[Falc67]

Variable/Up to 10.28 means it probably sits at 9.2, maybe lower...

 

[On Demand]

OsirisBlack !!!!!!!

 

[hemo memo]

Annnnnnnd every GAF insider simply vanished.

 

[30yearsofhurt]

16gb DDR6

 

[Reindeer]

Cerny starts with SSD because GPU is wack.

 

[it_wasn't_me]

Why does the specs list the SSD not at 1TB? I'm assuming their accounting for the space needed for the OS and MS will do the same even though they listed their SSD as 1TB.

Yep. Anyway SSD speed is great. More than double than in XSX. RAM speed is...well, we'll see.

 

[Soadi]

Where's my Bloodborne 2?

 

[Mrdeveus]

Only thing I like about this is you can use any M.2 drive you like to upgrade storage

 

[Fatal Enigma]

"Insiders" oh boy

 

[pasterpl]

So the best looking games this generation will be on xbsex, the fastest loading levels will be on ps5

 

[xPikYx]

And you want me to believe this shit is gonna output at 8k? Unbelievable

 

[CrustyBritches]

 

[hemo memo]

“””insiders””” indeed. Let me think. Sony changed it from 13 to 10.28 and insiders were right all along. I’m looking for an excuse to give them.

 

[Sinthor]

Well, can already tell that people are missing the boat on just how well this system will perform. We'll see when we have actual games, but looks to me like despite having lower overall TF numbers, this thing is going to be focused on performance in other ways that will make up most if not all of that difference.

 

[Bladed Thesis]

I was in day one already but this sounds like a $399 system.

Makes sense the rumors that Sony was waiting on MS to drop price news.

 

[DaMonsta]

I’ll tute my own horn in saying insiders were full of shit.

I don’t think one insider got it right

 

[HawarMiran]

Bro this ssd is mindblowing

 

[Ruben43cb]

Guess github wasnt that far off. They just up locked 2.23ghz and got 10.28. WEAK

 

[xPikYx]

He is just talking about ssd right now, it means they knkw they have nothing else to talk about

 

[it_wasn't_me]

Congrats Xbone team. You have the most powerful console!

Anyway, Github was right regarding CUs and RAM speed.

Agreed. System looks like a beast compared to this current generation and it will be $399. It has to be.

 

[Reindeer]

That's peak performance, it can fall below that as DF states.

 

[Gavin Stevens]

He’s talking bollocks btw, because you will still have loading. That’s not possible to get around on this level.

Guys, by all means throw all the Crow at me, I’ve already messaged my contact to ask what was going on, and I expect a load of emojis in reaponse.

By all means shower me crow shite I said I would take it, and here I am!

 

[Sinthor]

Yep. Overall, it means Sony will likely dominate the market again as far as sales, etc. I'm pretty sure they will be doing a PS5 PRO in a few years as well- I think that's going to be a new strategy from BOTH SONY and MS.

 

[xPikYx]

Sorry Mark but this time around you completely miss the shot

 

[HeisenbergFX4]

My PS5 coming in under XsX by 10% was off and I thought they were a lot closer then this.

I missed this one sadly

You can commence throwing rocks at me.

 

[Jonsoncao]

CHOO CHOO! For your ticket aboard the Hypetrain, REACT to this post.

This image looks so cringey right now.

 

[Crimson_Fate]

So the PS5 is an overclocked PS4 PRO afterall .. How nice.... Back to PC I go this gen....

 

[Mr Moose]

The SSD tech sounds amazing, but that GPU... :<

 

[longdi]

In Bloomberg we trust.

 

[LokusAbriss]

What a trainwreck. This is such a disapointment.
