Playstation 5 [PS5] [Release November 12 2020]


We've received a continuous stream of reports over the last few months suggesting there's a problem with PlayStation 5: VRR support...game performance can be interrupted by a continuous, obvious stutter that manifests every eight seconds....we can confirm it is a real problem, impacting both PS5 and Pro consoles - and based on our tests, it will impact any VRR-compatible display.
 
We're almost 5 years in and Sony is still struggling with VRR, a basic feature. It's embarassing.
Cerny's contribution created a console that looks weaker on paper but holds parity with it's direct competitor and is more developer friendly. Thats a big win in his resume.
The VRR feature doesn't appear to be his fault

At the cost of one frame every 8 seconds. Where does that frame go? It's sacrificed to the Playstation god. We've only seen him once, with his purple head made of shaded polygons. DF didn't detect this anomaly because they are focused on frame times, not frame tithes.
