| Dgc1808 said: I remember the 8GB PS4 threads getting laughed at. Most people were expecting 2-4GB. At the most, I expect PS5 to have 64GB. And 32GB of that will be purely for OS features we can't think of right now. 32GB sounds more realistic to me. It really depends on how long this gen lasts. |
32GB for OS features alone? The most taxing OS around right now draws 2-3GB at most. My Win 7 takes up about 2.2GB at present. People are actually attempting to streamline their OS today and are integrating more processes into the core scripts and registry, freeing system memory for other vital tasks. Steam OS, for instance, aims to free memory for gaming purposes instead, it really is needlessly taxing on the memory to run most OS processes and a big chunk of expended memory is simply wasted on archaic secondary processes, this is especially so in Windows.
Agree with the last point though but I think 32GB is the absolute highest possibility here, I find 24GB more likely though.
