9 billion? Where did that come from? 

2019 will be an epic battle between Nintendo and Sony, I predict Switch will sell 14millions units and PS4 14-15 Millions units. Switch has so far taken the lead according to vgchartz first week.

Hmm I don't know where you gotten geforce 1080 ti performance from never seen that anywhere, I think Navi mid-range cards will be between geforce 2060 and vega 56. The latest rumors had Navi mid-range at geforce 2070 but it was likely all fake though.

Right now I believe PS5 will launch Spring 2020 at 399$ with 3,2ghz zen 2 cpu that has 8 core and 16 threads, Navi at 9TF likely vega 56 performance, 12 GB Gddr6 Ram on a 192-bit bus and 1TB NVMe SSD drive.  

To all those involved parties that see this......

See that post up there....... this is exactly why I always end up in those "clarifying arguments" about the NS being a handheld r a home console. In a "home console" thread people like him will come and champion it being a handheld. 

You are clutching at straws. VR is still and will probably always be an enthusiast level accessory. There is not a chance in hell sony bundles a VR headset with a PS5. How do I know this? Because sony has NEVER bundled any accessory with any of the playstation consoles. NEVER. The most that we will et as far as VR built in support in the PS5 is a thunderbolt port which will allow one cable power and data connection to a VR headset. And dds are PSVR 2isnt even coming till 2023.

There is no reason or indication as to why the PS5 will not at least match sales the PS4 in NA. As long as it still has EU and Japan and ROW its pretty much guaranteed to outsell the next XBox. How do I know this? Cause the worst playstation console still outsold the best Xbox console even while losing in NA by 2:1.

This PS5 is in trouble message you are pushing.... its based on nothing but bias. Like there is not one sensible thin you have said to support your theories. Instead you are cooking up scenarios that unless you have been living under a rock for the past 5 yrs have pretty much zero chance of happening.

It happens just around when a new PS console is being released. Every single time.

Pre PS4 it was that MS were buying EA and AMD, PS4 was having 4GB ram and using cell processor 2........etc.

Beautiful......

And you probably will be wrong on just about everything you said there with exception to the CPU.

Damn there is s much wrong in that post......

GPU:

Lowest to expect will be 10TF. First off we know nothing about Navi other than its a more efficient architecture than Vega or Polaris(whats in the PS4pro/XB1X). So if we take the CU cunt of the XB1X, do nothing but put it in a 7nm chip, we will be able t clock that GPU t as much as 1.8Ghz. Being that its really small. That alone gives you 9TF+.

But lets say they can some how throw in more CUs (which should go without saying really) And lets say for some reason they can't double the CU count (PS4 to PS4pro) or Triple the CU count (XB1 to XB1X) But instead only can add about 50% more CUs to whats in an XB1X (so 40 to 60 CUs). Now since the chip is bigger, say they only clock the GPU as high as 1.35GHz. You end up with a 10TF+ GPU.

And this is not taking any new improvements a new GPU architecture will no doubt bring

RAM: 

Not a chance it has the same amount f RAM that the XB1X that was released in 2017 had.

Further more you also aren't taking the inherent benefits of GDDR6 into account. Each GDDR6 package has twice the capacity of GDDR5 (16Gb vs 8Gb) while also being twice as fast. This means that if sony goes with a board layout similar to the PS4/PS4pro the least they can end up with is 16GB or GDDR6 ram. If they go with one similar to the XB1X, then they end up with 24GB of RAM.

Oh..... and definitely not on a 192bit bus.... dont even know where you pulled that from. Minimum 256bit bus and max 384bit bus.

SSD:

Just forget that NvME drive.

It may be an M.2 drive. And as such an SSD but definitely not NVME class.

I wouldn't say that doing something one time equals "they tend to do it". Sony kinda has this thing figured out.

Also, before somebody says vita, I think it was a worthy successor with lots of great ideas for (at the time) the same price as the 3DS. It just didn't catch on at all.

No, you didn't. I asked you if you think PS5 is going to be successful (saleswise) or not. But you gave me a weird binary answer. Because you bet for Switch, you don't bet for PS5 (i don't understand this, you mean, in 2021, 2022, lifetime???). Why if one console is succesfull the other can not be too?. Couldn't Switch be predicted a success back then before official anoucement because we didn't know exactly what is going to be and because PS4 was dominating sales back then?? What a weird logic....

If you're saying NO to my question, it means that PS5 is not going to be a succesful console (saleswise), and if this is true, i've never seen a person so wrong in 10 years visiting this site....(maybe on par with  the ones expecting a console selling 200M, or a company disappearing). Your reasoning about Nintendo winning 50% against PS because of handhelds is as wrong as expecting a COD not being the best selling game in home consoles each year because their handheld versions (just one, that psv version, but this is just an example) were a failure and were beaten by other handheld games (a lot of  3ds games).

Home consoles and handheld consoles are not the same, and should not be compared the same. They're part of the videogame industry but their markets are different. 

Let’s be realistic here 

The rumors about ~1080TI came out around the same time as the Forbes report.  Though, it may have just been a 1080 and I'm remembering it wrong.  I just don't see them aiming "low" with the PS5.  I think they are going to try to roughly double the Tflops of the X's GPU, so ~10-12 Tflops.  And there is no way they are just going to match the RAM of the X.  They will have at least 16GB in it. 

I also wouldn't count on a SSD.  It will most likely be a 1TB HDD, with the ability for the consumer to upgrade it if they wish.  It's just too costly to throw in a large capacity SSD.  I mean that's a $50 difference at retail.  It may be more like a $30 difference for Sony, but that's an added cost of $150M for the first 5M units alone, which would be better spent putting a more powerful chipset in it.  If we ever get to a $5 difference between drives, Sony will probably throw one into the PS5 Pro at launch and probably a Slim, but not the launch model.  The only one I could see putting a SSD in is MS in their top of the line $499 model, and that would probably only be a 500GB one.
