anyone who actually thinks higher clocks are in any meaningful way better than slower clocks with more CUs is just as delusional as the 13TF crowd was.
the Series X is more powerful in every way aside of the SSD speed, get over it.
higher clocks will not result in better graphics than the way wider GPU, we only have to look at PC hardware tests to see exactly this. wider cards perform noticeably better and overclocking a narrower card gets you only so much performance gains.
and the fact that sone even try to spin the dynamic clock rates as something positive is more than ridiculous.
the only reason the PS5 has dynamic clock rates is because the hardware is not able to run at full clocks and full load, how the fuck is that good?
changing clocks like that are only used to squeeze a bit more performance out of a system that needs to be as cheap as possible and to look better on a specs sheet.
the only good thing about them is that it gets more performance out of the chip they have, that's it, that's all that's positive about it. it's a necessary evil basically
realistically speaking the PS5 will most likely never run at its full clocks on both ends, because if it would, these changing clocks wouldn't be needed, but they are needed. why? because the system can't reliably run at the highest clocks.
what this means is GPU intensive games will need to downclock the CPU in order to make sure the GPU is having no issues.
and CPU intensive games will need to downclock the GPU for the same reason.
this will most likely not be an issue with launch window titles since those will still be developed to run on jaguar CPUs as well, but if open world games get more complex, if more and more advanced AI and physics get used, the CPU will be taxed more and more, meaning that the GPU will most likely be downclocked.
the Series X has both a higher clocked CPU and also a more capable GPU and better RAM. meaning when games come around that will take full advantage of high end PC hardware, and then get ported to console they will run and look better on Series X, no clock speed advantage or SSD speed will change that.
