    Indeed... but nah... in this power envelop... it's impressive as fuck.

    Cows are fucking stupid
  3. So you think Sony was stupid to push absurdly high SSD speeds with such little RAM-APU bandwidth? You do realize that with better compression, developers can store that information in smaller chunks which don't require as much bandwidth to get to the APU, right?
  4. Dude... how can you not realize what the fuck you're being told? Everything about the design of BOTH system is designed around minimizing the size of data stored in the RAM, as well as augmenting that RAM with super fast storage which can swap that ram out much faster. It's not even close... you simply cannot compare it to current consoles. Listen to what Sony developers are telling you.... this will enable things never before possible.
  5. You didn't.. lmao. I said it was unclear... which it was... and which was why they had to clarify.
  6. I'm pretty sure I was the one who told you that... LONG ago regarding this gen... And while TFs don't matter to developers... they matter to marketing...
  7. Yea... which is why they've already announced a price.. right? Wait.. no.. they've said themselves that they're waiting for MS.. .because they REALLY don't want to be caught having 2TF+ less than their competitors at the same price.
  8. lmao... yes there is. They were caught off guard... and have been spending all this time struggling on how to market the fucking thing compared to 12TF Xbox. And yea... keep laughing..
  9. To reduce costs. Because it's prohibitively expensive... These are chips faster than the fastest PC shit... it doesn't necessarily mean $399.. lol
  10. Apparently Sony was internally fighting over 16gbps ram vs 14... and settled on 14. The thing sounds like a bit of a mess. They definitely bumped the clocks because they realized that Series X was far ahead.
  11. They were obviously caught off guard with MS' specs man.. it's fucking obvious If MS matches them price-wise... LOL
  12. Dude... you might want to hold off on proclaiming that too loudly. The HDD to SSD is huge indeed... and 2.4 to 5.5 is also huge... don't discount it. But more than the speed of the drive, it's more important how their compression works. Sony may have a huge advantage too. I don't know if it's true or not, but there's rumors that with PS5's SSD speed and their custom I/O block.. they can load the state of the OS almost instantly. What people are speculating is that Sony may have almost all of the 16GB of RAM available to developers for games with just .5GB or 1GB stor
  13. lol we'll see. I think they're more different than people appreciate from the hardware side.. but yea, I'm definitely not saying that either will do things the other couldn't. I think regardless, the improvements to efficiency and hardware features are going to make this gen far more interesting between the two. God I cannot fucking wait to see Forza and GT on SeriesX/PC and PS5 respectively. Shit is going to look REAL.
  14. I think you're wrong. I have no idea how sequential speeds of these drives means one will perform so much better in the real world than the other. Sequential speeds are not a good indicator of real world performance... we already know that from the PC. What matters are the details that they AREN'T telling you. As for this "secret sauce"... texture compression is not a myth... it has real world implications. The better they can compress textures, the more memory is available for either more textures or other stuff. Not only that... in conjunction with Sampler Feedback.. they c
  15. I think the reason why they've been so quiet and hum-ho in the past bit is due to figuring out how they are going to paint and market their specs in a brighter light. Apparently they're struggling internally about specs they've chosen. The slower RAM being one of them.. Obviously they're going to focus on the SSD, but it's quite obvious that they scrambled to push extra clocks out of the PS5 in an effort to not look so far behind their competitor. It sounds like there's so many caveats to that "10TF" of performance... and you have to remember that they have less memory bandwidth
