Again, as he said those articles were from before the XSS was even announced.  Tom Warren was under the impression that the XSS was the exact same as the XSX.  Microsoft corrected him. It's 0.2 GHz slower.  

PS5 will run at 3.5 GHz most of the time.  

3.5 GHz isn't some random maximum that it rarely hits.  It spends most of the time there. And if you down clock the GPU, it can spend all of its time there.

You said: "PS5 has SMT on all the time. 3.5 GHz with SMT". 

But I was not talking about what you said anyway. The "you" was in general (as "someone cannot", my bad) as I looked up your link and even some others and yes, they say "3.5ghz with SMT all the time" basically and then "variable frequency". This is just weird wording and assuming that while SMT is on all the time, the frequency is not really 3.5ghz on average (just the highest possible) compared to the X/S with fixed frequencies is not crazy :) 

Those are two separate sentences saying two separate things. Both sentences are correct.  They're not correct if you combine them.  

First: 2020/09/10 is after the Series S announcement.

Second: I am talking about 3.6ghz/3.4ghz and every article I linked is talking about 3.6ghz/3.4ghz not 3.8ghz; so not sure what you are talking about the "Microsoft corrected him". Unless you are going to say that the CPU is 3.4/3.2...

I'm talking about assumptions based on what we know (and keep telling how nothing is sure) and you state your points as "we know for sure" from a one-liner (one sentence too by the way from YOUR link and any other link or source I cared to read or look at following your response "8x Zen 2 Cores at 3.5GHz with SMT (variable frequency)").

I'm done, you are right: CPU is faster, all articles are wrong and variable frequency means most of the time.

Good for all of us anyway, still getting a play station five digital when it will come out.
