people don't understand that raw power isn't all there is to it - if the slides in Cerny's presentation are any hint the I/O complex (which includes ESRAM) on the PS5 APU might be bigger than both CPU and GPU parts, meaning that there is a big big investment attached to the blazing fast SSD
Cerny thinks this is the best way to get as much out of the whole as possible, but in the end it probably also means it will be just as expensive as the competition
that is a risk, as the traditional "more is better" approach is simply more marketable and word of mouth is a powerful thing
