Which will prevail? Xbox Power or Playstation Speed?

lol lots of brand rationalization going on in here, if this was the opposite where Sony had the higher specced system people would be yelling from the rooftops about it.

There's probably nothing that stops the XBSX from going to higher clock speeds if MS wants either making that gap in power even larger.

Thats just not true. It's fundamental the you cannot numerically compare systems that have different architecture. 

Now PS5 and XBSX have similar chips but their micro-architecture seems very different which complicates things. MS's clock speeds are fixed and set in accordance to their thermal dissipation design. If they were to over clock they would need to change their cooling mechanisms which could change the entire physical assembly of the box or parts of it: it's too late for that. 

And I haven`t seem anyone saying PS5 is more powerful. The question is exactly what will impact more our gameplay and will be more liked by gamers the extra power of XSX or the extra speed of the SSD.
