The specs are a known quantity; I defer to those who know more about tech than either of us such as Pemalite; XSX is more capable.

This is just another case of fans focusing on the one thing their box does better than the 'enemy' box.

I'm not disputing Permalite, neither am I disputing devs talking about how the TFLOPs difference won't matter and we should feel silly talking about it.

On paper there is no discussion, the XSX is superior overall but is also inferior on some ways, and its in a field where devs have been talking about game changing things will come from.

What will bring more to the balance is yet to be seen, as of right now we simply can't prove anything aside of on paper, which XB won.

I'm not focusing on it, I'm waiting to see what it can actually bring to the table. And asking a question.

Seems like you are rushing to conclusions there, sadly.

The only conclusion I'm rushing to is that I'm inclined to believe the analysis of those who are more knowledgeable than myself now that the guts of both machines are known. 

No doubt there will be games that leverage the SSD advantage on PS5, just as there were games that leveraged Megadrive's CPU speed advantage. I never meant to imply otherwise.

I'm simply pointing out that, as always happens in these situations, people defending their brand will always fixate on and overhype any specific advantage it has over the competition while downplaying the areas in which it falls short. In three decades, that hasn't changed.
