Fair enough, but will there even be games that need this level of power? I mean, won't multiplats be designed around the capabilities of PS4/X1 for financial reasons, meaning raytracing won't be viable?

Sure enough most AAA games are designed around consoles but there are a few out there like older CD Projeckt Red and Cloud Imperium Games (Star Citizen) who will be experimenting with raytracing ... 

If they want to be compatible with consoles then they can opt in on a pre-baked global illumination solution instead of raytracing ... 

That makes sense I suppose.

It's be really interesting to see how far you could push graphics at 1080p with this much raw horsepower.
