I'm failing to see how power and speed differ in a computing context.
CPU wise PS4 is weaker and slower, no matter how you frame it. Maybe on the GPU side you could make an argument for that difference, but still.
Either way, seems like a strong move forward for gaming.
- withthewind 7y agoWell the article explains what they mean by power and speed. The PS5's novel approach to storage will drive high quality real time texture streaming to games.
- donatj 7y agoThere's a couple of things in the article. The Xbox has a faster CPU, but the PS5 has a faster SSD. The Xbox has more GPU cores, but the GPU cores of the PS5 are faster. I would say number of cores versus speed equals how power and speed differ.
- _bxg1 7y agoIt's a silly artificial dichotomy they made up so they could have a catchy headline. They do define it, as CPU/GPU vs SSD, but it's a fairly contrived way of framing the two consoles.
