Thats just it....

Your quoteing a NXgamer video... where it you notice 1 single tiny bit (like a secound) of action.

The same guy, NXgamer, used a program to analyse frames shown on both, playing through a sequence of say 1hour or something.
He analysed the differnce in terms of FPS, and came to 0.02% differnce statistically.

you can cherry pick, 1 single moment you see.
But its odd your source, is the same, as the guy claiming there is no differnce, statistically.

This is why people use graphs and analyse data.
1 single tiny moment, in a game doesnt represent how the entire game will run.

The best idea, is to look how it plays over a long periode.
When you do that, you can compaire how often X drops frames vs Y ect.
Which is what he does.

He says theres only a 0.02% differnce in performance between the XSX and PS5.

And my point is that just because that bottom resolution is hit in a momentary instance, that does not mean the resolution is automatically lower overall.  In fact they both average around 1440p, which would suggest that there are points where the XSX has a higher max resolution, or has enough instances where the resolution is higher to even it out.  It is simple math really.

And that is where the problem with your claim lies.  You want to split hairs for a momentary instance where the resolution drops to 1180p, but don't want to split hairs on the fact that certain special attacks can make the PS5 frame drop to 56 fps where the XSX maintains 60 fps.  If you want to split hairs, you have to do it both ways, and that will end in a tie.

Digital Foundry and NXgamer both say it is.
As do others.   Avg resolution is lesser on the XSX.
