Forums - Gaming Discussion - How powerful should ps5 and Xbox 4 be?

I think they should come out in 2019 or 2020

20 teraflops

DDR6

8 terabytes of storage

4k blu ray support

 

The consoles should easily be able to do 4k 60fps with HDR.  I would like next gen to focus more on physics and number of characters on screen. With 20 teraflops we should see some areas photorealistic!

DDR6???? Hahahaha
That doesn't exist lol. And it won't exist by 2019 or 2020 either. We just started using DDR4...



I think you are going to be disappointed just as people were with the basic PS4 and XBO. The upgrade will be mostly predictable: a mid-end GPU circa 2018 standards, a low to mid-end CPU circa 2018 standards, 16 GB of GDDR6 (maybe GDDR5 or HBM depending on what mid-end GPU's have at that time and whom the manufacturers make deals with: Nvidia or AMD), if we're lucky -- terabyte SSD's (should be affordable by then, and I don't predict games to bloat in size too much.)

That will leave room for a (or a few) PS4 Pro/XB Scorpio like upgrade(s) mid-generation.

He probably meant GDDR6.

I would prefer if SONY focused on something else. PS5 being just being another dumb PC would blow. SONY's is a hardware firm so should be able to come up with a new hook

Enough power to be backwards compatible, but not so much that it makes them expensive. Anywhere in between those two is fine by me.

They probably won't put resources into backwards compatibility as PS4 shows unfortunately you don't need it to sell units, which sucks. 



There's only 2 races: White and 'Political Agenda'
2 Genders: Male and 'Political Agenda'
2 Hairstyles for female characters: Long and 'Political Agenda'
2 Sexualities: Straight and 'Political Agenda'

They should have so much power that their power becomes self aware and we can no longer play games because SkyNet has taken over.



Hmm, pie.

Backwards compatability will be much easier if they use the same architecture, so it likely won't take too much resources.

Console Skynet wouldn't have a chance against #masterrace Skynet anyway.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Powerful enough for 60fps to be the standard.
