Some of XBSX RAM is slower though. That would only be a partial truth. Also depends on how you want to look at the GPU speed. On paper, PS5 is clocked higher, so that's something MS would have a hard time pulling off in terms of marketing. Even if MS does keep fastest, it wouldn't be dumb for SNY to use that as well, since it will just confuse some customers, and if they can't decipher who's really faster and what each means, things like price and games will become much more important to them. If SNY doesn't use something like being the fastest in some of their marketing, they will be handing XBSX easy consumer points to their own detriment.

Correct. A portion of the memory is slower. - But those regions are mapped out and exposed so developers can prioritize the bandwidth-hungry operations to those memory locations where-as bandwidth insensitive operations can stay in the slower memory regions.

In general, it's a non-issue and still gives the Xbox Series X the faster memory advantage.

In practice yes, but SNY can easily muddy that with non specified SSD marketing if they want to. If MS is simply going to use catch words without explanation, SNY can as well and take away that marketing advantage XBSX has right now. Based on the more recent "for the players" and "best place to play", SNY may very well ignore any hardware advantages completely in their slogan/phrases for PS5 though.

PS5. The Fastest. Most Advanced.

That would be hilarious to see. lol
