The average person doesn’t know what a TF is or the differences in efficiency.
12tf is rdna, why would they bother confusing anyone saying “our new GPU is equivalent to double the power of the x but numerically only 1.x”

I know, i even mentioned that extreme case but no, there are so many companys everyone knows the bottom line of prices before they order and launch manifacture , assembly etc...

Not so long time ago people believed he was lying in regards to his work, yet he is verified now (and he sure has a lot on knowledge if people will only read his posts in regards to programming and technical stuff). So I will give him the benefit of a doubt for now and especially when what he wrote in regards to Hellblade 2 makes sense. I only dont get it why he was so sceptical in regards to next gen consoles, because he could very well hear outdated information from his friend and he wasn't considering that.

im just trying to see if the only reason he thinks this is because marketing buzz words. if that's the case, I wouldn't put too much focus on it. Microsoft said they also want to be the most "immersive" which could mean anything. Now I don't have full faith in OsirisBlack yet, nothing against him, just find it hard to believe Microsoft would sell two consoles that are weaker.Are you for real trying to have a rational discussion with Tim Dog?!

It goes both ways, how are you so sure that its rdna?
We still have NO proof as for yet.

Osiris "Next box has more than 10 tflops"
Microsoft our machine is 12 tflops.
Neogaf "Shut it osiris you said > 10"
Osiris "Hey the actual console is out in the wild phil doesn't have the devkit and people (besides phil) have it."
Microsoft shows the actual console
Neogaf "You didn't know they were done with the actual console."
Osiris "Hey everyone, new Ghosts of Tsushima stuff looks amazing."
Sony shows new Ghosts of Tsushima stuff
Neogaf "Shut it Osiris you don't know Anything."
aww, You guys .... I love it here.

BTW I have nothing against you, I just don't see xbox being the weaker console when they are making two of them. For all I know you could be 100% right, or you could be completely full of shit (what the hell do I know), but it is fun reading your posts!

“Powered by our custom-designed processor leveraging the latest Zen 2 and next generation RDNA architecture from our partners at AMD, Xbox Series X will deliver hardware accelerated ray tracing and a new level of performance never before seen in a console.”

Confirmation bias - Wikipedia
I'm not sure wtf is everybody talking about.
There is only one type of TF, arch doesn't matter. TF is a theoretical peak performance. Everybody seems to confuse it with some practical benchmarks and IPC improvements. Better IPC means nothing for the TF number. Better IPC means your hardware sucks less and is closer to the theoretical max. But the theoretical max is still the max.

I do Sony has a lot more riding on their games division. They need that games division to be a money maker. Having top hardware will only help keep the crown and extend the generation making it more profitable. MS is not giving phil a blank check to win a war. A decade ago he might of gotten one but not anymore.

Ill ask the same question, why is it so hard to understand that :
Everybody knows next gen is rdna, what we are discussing and not sure about is the TF count being 12Tf (nothing official yet), then we still dont know if its Rdna TF count or Gcn TF count, you know the reason i quoted you is it goes both ways to not confuse the consumer about Tf count.

No they are talking about the CPU. The zen stomps on the jaguar. 4 times the CPU and twice the GPU.
"It's not all about GPU power alone--as expected, the Series X beefs up the CPU. Spencer explained, "On the CPU side, which is [something] we really wanted to push relative to previous generations, we have four times the compute power on the CPU in Project Scarlett."
Xbox Series X Specs: Twice As Powerful As Xbox One X
In terms of tech specs, Xbox Series X will be a massive upgrade over current-gen consoles, Phil Spencer tells us.

How do you know Phil is getting a "blank check"? The same argument could be said for the playstation division, as its the only consistent positive division for Sony (compared to its music, tv, or movie divisions etc.). You could say Sony in theory is giving Cerny a blank check make the most powerful console. Either way, there is no way we would know that. I think people make up these story-lines as to why which console needs to be more powerful. Sure, Microsoft is saying its their most powerful console, but just because Sony isn't responding doesn't mean they aren't going to be. Sony is going to talk about their console when they are ready.

I think we're agreeing, but to be clear that's my point too. I think 12Tflops has only been wrongly assumed from Phil saying it was twice as powerful, because it could be twice as powerful with less than 12 paper Tflops due to the architecture improvement.
Not even that it's NOT around 12, but people have jumped on this as truth too fast and The Verge was being a bit irresponsible putting a number to Phils estimate without accounting for the architecture differences.

None of the ‘insiders’ are saying otherwise, even kleegamfan is doubling down on it being 12TF RDNA.
LordOfChaos

That's fair then. I just wasn't sure if it was substantiated anywhere outside of Phil saying it was double the performance and Verge running with 12 in the same sentence.

Has anyone speculated on how much RAM the ps5 will have, pretty sure Series X is speculated to have 16.
What a shit forum!!
i understand why Xbox fans hated this so much.
it's just our preference.
this assholes just want the Xbox to be vanish from gaming but Microsoft responded with powerful console with hardware Raytracing support and Next generation Rdna architecture.and with gamepass and punch of new studios.
in your face bitches.

So here's a more up to date spec sheet (based solely on rumors, of course)
If this turns out to be true at least regarding CPU and GPU, it would mean a slight framerate advantage for XBSX and a slight graphics advantage for PS5. Pretty much unnoticeable imo.
Code:
PS5 XBSX
CPU: 8/16 Zen 2 @ 3.2Ghz | 8/16 Zen 2 @ 3.6Ghz
GPU: 13.4TF RDNA 2.0 | 12TF RDNA 2.0
Storage: 1TB? SSD NVMe 4GB/s | 1TB? SSD NVMe 2GB/s?
RAM: 16GB?/24GB? GDDR6 | 16GB? GDDR6If this turns out to be true at least regarding CPU and GPU, it would mean a slight framerate advantage for XBSX and a slight graphics advantage for PS5. Pretty much unnoticeable imo.

Rumors showed 24 earlier this year but I suspect both go with 16

We're getting powerful hardware right out the gate this time. Reminiscent of PS360 days. I think the way things went this gen made everyone forget how things can actually be.

what would the difference be between 24 and 16 gb of RAM be?

Pushing 12tf. The more the system can use for games the better.
Pro would have been alot more capable if it wasn't limited to 215gb/s on the ram side.

I can do it! It will have between 8 and 32 GB of memory. You're welcome!
Not a apples to apples the pro tried to upping the resolution with almost no ram upgrade. Even at 16 gigs it be 5 to 13 from base to new systems. With production costs assets are not going to get a lot better. I see ram as the least bang for the buck. Go past 16 you either increase die space for wide bus and probably cut CUs or other GPU goodies. Also add cost down the road makes node shrinks much harder. Or you go to 32 gigs and cut out the SSD and silent cooling. Developers are clever they can more easily work around limited ram than limited raw GPU power or no guaranteed SSD to stream assets.

13GB of GDDR6 promised to developers? Granted that from xbox one x, it is GDDR6 and higher bandwidth, but its only 4GB more than the 9GB available on One X. That's not a lot. Yes I know the SSD virtual RAM will help, but seriously, you need to have at least 16GB available for games.

It isn't.What if the PS5 GPU is 13+ TF, but RDNA 1.0 and XSX is 12TF but RDNA 2.0? What then?

According to the rumors about PS5 being slightly more powerful than Scarlett as XBO S is than XBO, I would say 12.9.
Also, I was reading old threads and I found this guy almost nailing PS5s launch date and expected graphical power:
Mark Cerny thinks 8TF is the minimum for native 4K gaming
Incidentally, he mentioned that his personal estimate is that rendering at native 4K across the board would require a minimum of 8 teraFLOPS of computing power, and thats not something that can be achieved at a reasonable price this year. That said, users will be able to discern the difference...

If Sony said "We have built the most Powerfful PlayStation ever" it would fucking the same because the statement ia objectively the same as It only compared thie
"Ghost of Tssushima still looks amazing"
I mean is this considered any leaked info ?
Anyone could say that. Its Just an opinione that is very likely to be true
You guys should start give some confidence on real insiders who leak concrete and objective infos, not vague subjective opinion based on nothing.
Just remember the date 13.02.2.0

Ok.
Just dont believe this Guy right there was the Pioneer of leaking this info as Ive been hitting this for days now.
