Sorry, didn't see this. 

First off, I never said more CUs (which are shaders) = worse performance. I said XSX would have a harder time hating that 1825Mhz lock than the PS5 would have hitting its 2230Mhz clock. Saying something will have a harder time is not the same thing as saying t can't do it...unless that's what you want to see it as. But it's not the same thing though. I mean I think even in what you quoted I literally said "they will hit those clocks whenever they are needed to hit them".

The reason is simple and obvious really... the size of the chip. Its simply easier clocking a smaller chip higher than it is clocking a larger chip high. And its harder dissipating heat from larger chip than it is from smaller ones. Look at every single GPU out there, or CPU, it's not a coincidence that the ones with really high core counts run at slightly lower clock speeds.

And with regard to the other stuff I posted.. you and others may call it one guys opinion, but it doesn't mean he said is no true. If you take the information available, his depiction of things is literally the benefits that the SSD would bring. And how it can be utilized. I obviously agree with his explanation, which is why I posted it. You don't have to agree with it obviously.

Microsoft has stated it's performance profiles can be maintained without variability AFAIK.
It should be able to maintain that 1825Mhz clock without any drama.

Of course, it would...again, i never said it wouldn't. They would have put that thing through all sorts of hell anyways and devices a cooling solution or it that can adequately accommodate those kinda clocks.

just standing that "typically" its generally thicker cooling higher core count and bigger chips than cooling smaller ones.

And if all my pots were read, I also said I don't even believe the PS5 would run both its CPU and GPU at those peak clocks at max load. I said I expect the PS5's CPU to be routinely cocked down to like 3.2Gz to lead some power overhead so the GPU can hit its peak cooks and remain there if need be.
