DF written article on PS5 and XSX spec leaks: https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/...laystation-5-xbox-series-x-spec-leak-analysed
The scale and scope of this latest leak is remarkable and the origin of the new information seems even more far-fetched than the Gonzalo story, leading many to believe that the entire thing may be a work of fiction. However, having looked into the situation and independently verified the source, the overwhelming evidence is that the data does indeed originate from AMD - and hasn't been doctored. We're lacking crucial context for sure but the reasons to doubt the veracity of the leak are somewhat thin on the ground.
From what I can gather, someone at AMD's ASIC validation department used GitHub to store fragments of internal testing data from a range of work-in-progress Team Red projects. The leaks include testing of next-gen desktop and mobile Ryzen APUs along with some deep-dive testing on the PS5 chip, now codenamed Oberon. While the data is not public, it's clear that the GitHub test data has travelled far and wide: further details from the leak mentioned in this article are being discussed at length on ResetEra, for example. The genie is out of the bottle.
Then there we have it, ps5 9TF. It was what i expected.
Nothing is sure until SONY gives official statement of PS5 specs. These leaks can always be fake or something else than ps5 chip. Also I saw something about that this leak was fake and/or it is not about PS5 chip but something else
AMD tests lot of chips so it could be anything, even some different versions of PS5 chip and the real one didnt leak. Or partial tests for some compatibility mode, who knows until it is official.
Just because some popular site/channel/dude says so, it doesnt make it 100% trustworthy.
There are always people whom like to troll or gain fame, on every gen.
I would guess that there is maybe 30% chance that ps5 will be 9tflop machine and 70 % chance that it is something else.
This 36CU @ 2Ghz just doesnt sound believable to me, clocks are too high for a console and CU count is too low for the available tech.
Sony isnt stupid company, they have epic engineers so I would be surprised if they would lose so badly to xbox, unless it is really only about the price point strategy.
