Seems powerful enough. Wonder how much of it comes from IPC increases and how much of just the higher clock speeds...

Speaking of clock speeds, the high base clocks of the Ryzen 7xxx chips are pretty interesting to me. I wonder how this will translate into the mobile APUs next year; maybe we'll get some 8c/16t U series chip with over 3Ghz base clock, Zen 3+ was already pretty close to that (2.7 Ghz on the 6800U)

PS5 price to increase in select markets due to global economic environment, including high inflation rates

May as well be everywhere but the US. This feels like a foreshadowing for Lovelace and RDNA 3...

Wouldn't this be the first time that a console's normal price would be adjusted upwards after release? Or did this happen before?

I knew there wouldn't be any price cuts this gen due to the inflation, but a price increase is not something I ever expected!

Yea the APUs are gonna be very interesting with the increase in popularity of PC handhelds.

I believe so. PS4 went up in price in certain regions like in Canada but that was due to the currency being arse. I think this is the first time it went up in so many regions.
