I'm going to guess the Vega 64 is what the PS5 is going to be rocking. Of course, I'm going to guess it'll be somewhat customized with a few advancements in tech made along the way. So, ~6.5X-7X more powerful than the OG PS4 and 3X more powerful than the Pro. Add in a much better Zen or Zen+ CPU and 16GB of RAM. I'd say that's good enough for a generation leap.

Not with that power consumption it won't. That's just too much for a console. They would need to bring clock speeds down to about 800-900 Mhz to tame that beast into a console, and by that point it wouldn't even have twice the power of a PS4 Pro anymore. That would probably not be enough anymore to differentiate it substantially from the Pro.

I'd rather say it will be based on Navi, Vega's sucessor. It could use 64 NCU but at a much lower clock speed (I guess around 1000 Mhz) unless Navi clocks much better than it's predecessors

Vega itself will most probably have a bumpy start, since the drivers don't even unlock all it's power and features yet. Once that is achieved, I'm sure it will compare well to the 1080Ti , but until then it will probably stay in between both 1080 models
