The amount of power needed to make a significant leap forward is just not going to be ready, or at mass market prices until then. For A PS5 to happen, Sony needs to have a 12TF GPU minimum although something closer to the 40TF that Nvidia is promising with Volta would be more of a real leap, they need 128GB of RAM, and an SSD that is large enough, and fast enough to fill that RAM. All of this needs to be done at the $400 price tag people have come to accept for a console. This is unless people start to put more value behind consoles. If consumers are willing to pay $800 for a beefed up PS5 in 2019 - 2020, then the next gen could start way before I am antcipating. I just don't think Sony and Microsoft can convince people to put down more than $400, even if these boxes become more versitle and see high usage than PC's, tablets, or Laptiops. |
Can you maybe explain why we need 40TF of GPU power, 128GB of ram and a few TB of SSD's?
Are we trying to run a Pixar/Dreamworks renderfarm at Imax resolutions or just a "next-generation" console?
