This thread is to simply sum up all articles for easy reference so they don’t get lost if a mess of uninformed conjecture.

You can expect any positive PS5 thing to get it’s own thread ... but we will take a different path here and provide a solid library for future reference.

I will update as per peoples suggestions.

(*) Sony PS5 Vs. Xbox Series X Technical Analysis: Why The PS5’s 10.3 TFLOPs Figure Is Misleading

So you want to play that game, but I’m sure you take MS’s obviously disingenuous “locked” comment at face value? 😂😂😂 They said sustained not locked. You can expect those clocks at a minimum they didn't say it would never go a bit higher

XBOX SERIES X VS PS5: WILL RAY TRACING SUPPORT BE BETTER ON THE MICROSOFT CONSOLE? - Code List

Ray Tracing represents one of the strengths of the new Sony and Microsoft consoles together with the Custom SSD which in both cases should guarantee not only faster loading times but also speed up the work of the developers. Many are wondering which of the two consoles will manage Ray Tracing...

xbox virtual ram / ssd / io performance

12.15 - 10.28= 1.87 Teraflops difference between the XSX and PS5 (52 CU's vs. 36 CU's)

Language and I used this. https://www.azcalculator.com/calc/teraflops.php It is wrong. Flops has always been calculated using clock speed * shaders * operations per clock. Rops, tmus and rasterisation have nothing to do with alu performance which is what flops is a measurement of.

I know theres plenty more hidden away .. I only want good ones .. but if they are good I’ll post them! .. I don’t care if they are pro ps5 as well it’s just about collecting all of the technical things that are good about xbox console in one place

Great thread for those of us under quarantine or about to be. Thanks

A Sony ex game designer is not a relayable source.
Facts confirmed by Microsoft are.
So an example, Jason Schreier with his story that 3 developers saying the PS5 is equal and at some points better than the SeriesX
Is also a rumor and not a fact
Stick to the facts

There are at least 4 articles on Xbox Wire that were practically never discussed.

 

[Nemesis Prime]

Probably not the right thread but there’s so many... in terms of the power gap between the XSEX and the Ps5, is it similar to the XONE and Ps4 gap, or larger?

if life were that easy I’d do that. We had people post that the xbox wasn’t 12 tf after MS confirmed it .. now we have people posting that xsx is variable clock speed when MS made a huge point if saying it’s not.

I will not be the judge of truth ... ( although I’ll have an opnion sometimes) ... it it half seems reliable I’ll post it.

That is yet to be known, let's just say it's very different because there's more going on. The Series X is undoubtedly more powerful, but with the RT stuff factored in, the memory bandwidth differences, its yet to be seen by how much.
