The rumor says 20GBs for games plus 4GBs of cheaper ram for the OS. But even so, it'll have 24GBs for games alone. Is 24GBs overkill for current gen? Of course it is. Will it be for next gen, I don't think so. If they release 2020 they'll have to be relevant up until 2026/2027, that's where it'll make the biggest difference. As soon as next gen releases game development itself will climb another notch and all games will be asking more of their systems than they do now. It's always like this, as soon as the PS5 is out 4K everything will be the baseline for game development, even if we already have 4K for years, the real push start when the new consoles come. Look up to the PC spec bumps when the next gen starts getting to rol, you have probably already noticed it, tho. So we'll have that big next gen bump in game development itself plus at least 6 years of evolution for the consoles to keep up with and 16GB of RAM suddenly become a bottleneck that consoles would like to avoid. IMO there is no chance for the PS5 to release with less than 20GBs of RAM (for games), zero. |
16 gig is more than enough for 4k. Anything else just adds to the overall cost of the console.
