Next Generation Hardware Speculation with a Technical Spin [post E3 2019, pre GDC 2020] [XBSX, PS5]

[bgroovy]

The share/record that feature in 4K means you need some write speeds as well I think

Only like 5MB/sec.

Phison E19T is on TSMC 28 nm. What would the custom Sony designed ASICs be on?

Probably 28nm. It's one of TSMC's low cost workhorses now. And not susceptible to 7nm tight supply.

If the Xbox SSD is software defined it will be faster than PC SSD too.

With more details, they gave this spec sheet to the dev with a 1 GB/s SSD and they give it to dev last quarter 2019. They were knowing they will not use this. Out of teams with devkit I doubt the teams knows the final specs of the two consoles.

EDIT: And only Xbox Series X(Anaconda) no Lockhart spec sheet for the moment.

EDIT2: And for the Sony fanboy, this is really 12 Tflops RDNA as a target.

This leak looks awfully similar to January 2019 leak on Reddit.

Exactly they give this but with much more details and a presentation to dev without devkit last quarter 2019. I think out of team with devkits, no one has the real spec of the console. Sony and MS try to hide a lot the specs of the consoles.

Well, I can believe that. There is 0 reason to put out elaborative diagrams and specs 2 years before consoles are out. Its not 2004 anymore.

We got PS4 full specs in April 2016 and for XSX I think they didnt have dev kits out until like half a year before release. Pretty sure the reason we got no specs is because very few have them.

Just remember that raw speed of the controller alone is not enough, according to Cerny:

“The raw read speed is important,“ Cerny says, “but so are the details of the I/O [input-output] mechanisms and the software stack that we put on top of them.

After it is not a problem, the only problem is when you fail to reach the target spec and studios with devkits need to downgrade.

Here the Xbox SSD was beefed up.

Thats also not a problem, was done already in current gen(2013 e3)

There is a difference this time the studios were thinking to have less power not more like in 2013.

Did they success?

That leak with $249 lockhart? kind of hard to believe, but who knows.

Ew.... they put fake vents.

Must have had issues getting airflow through the PSU and blocked some to get more pressure on the bottom or something, there's no way they designed this voluntarily with fake vents. This is going to be reworked.

They didn't even attempt to obscure the serial number.

Could be intentional "leak". We see nothing of value considering they already released what the enclosure looks like. And everybody is talking about it so it works.

Perhaps ... But what do they even get out of it? Not that many are talking about it.

They're not even good or interesting pictures. If any single one of us here had physical access to that, you know there would be pics from the top and bottom and all the internals. Maybe it is intentional 'leak', cause it's such a nothing-burger.

Supposedly, someone tried it.

Oh yes that thing would be torn apart before even looking for the right screwdriver.
