PS1 had 2mb of ram 

PS2 had 32mb of ram, a power increase of x16

PS3 had 256mb of ram + 256mb of vram (512mb) again an increase of x16 

PS4 8gb of ram plus 256mb for background tasks, again an increase of x16 the power

 

Ps5 131gb????

 

I can see next gen being very little difference between Ps5 and pc

 

x16 does make sense, though.

+ PlayStation releases every 6-8 years ? which would be 2^3 or 2^4 ≈ 16

Holy crap, proof

 

Can anyone on here find a thread with predicted ps4 ram before itches announced, because I bet a lot doubted 8gb

 

Nope, that is just bad science and engineering sadly.

 

VRAM is becoming more important than actual RAM, and as long as consoles give themselves the arbitrary power limit of 100 W, they won't ever have much in them.
