Reading through superchunk 200 page prediction thread about xbox one and ps4, nobody was able to guess the ps4 spec. So I assume everyone will be wrong again about ps5.
But I will try anyway for fun :)
- 4 core zen cpu, it will be zen2 the newest architecture. Won't be a 8 core cpu reason for this is 8 core has a die size of 190mm2. It is just way to big even 4 core seems abit to big. Other reason is 4 core is cheaper and will be able to clock higher than 8 core in a small package.
- Midrange nvidia gpu, the architecture will be whatever comes after volta. Expect around 11 Tf and around 1080 ti performance. The reason I put nvidia is just that Amd gpus are just falling so far behind Nvidia that Sony and Microsoft will have no choice but to go nvidia next gen.
- 16 gb of ram. Ram pricing is just not dropping so I assume anything more will be to expensive. Maybe we see 24gb.
- 2tb non ssd drive. I just don't believe ssd prices will drop enough and even if it did Sony still probably go with 2 tb mechanical drive.
Price 399$ released 2020 oct-nov. 2019 possible as 7nm will be ready by than. But 2020 is more probable for numerable reasons.
Bad news is, NO backward compability.
Edit: Forgot, expect pretty much all AAA games to be 4k checkerboard rendering. The performance gain from using checkerboard is just to big (around 100 %). So I expect pretty much 0 new AAA games use native 4k in ps5. And still 30 fps, but will probably see more 60 fps games because of a improved cpu.

LOL. Not quite. AMD is doing just fine with the new Vega line.
