Fake 4K and High Price: PlayStation 5 Issues Rumored

As part of the latest release of the Internet podcast Basement Radio Arcade portal editor VentureBeat Jeff Grubb shared an interesting rumor regarding next generation consoles Playstation 5 and Xbox series x… More specifically, the journalist spoke about the difference in performance between the two devices.

So, according to information Grabba, now some third-party teams are faced with certain difficulties when working with Playstation 5primarily due to technology SmartShiftthat allows you to dynamically adjust the GPU and CPU frequencies.

“The technology used in the PS5 architecture is AMD’s SmartShift. And many users confidently expect that the performance of Sony’s hardware will directly match the Xbox Series X. And, in fact, such a scenario is likely, I am not a developer and I do not presume to judge. SmartShift raises certain questions.In fact, this system allows you to transfer power from the CPU to the GPU and vice versa, only in the past, developers have never done such manipulations on consoles.

Ultimately, at least at launch, all this can result in a number of situations where, for example, Digital Foundry specialists will make their reviews, in which they call the PS5 versions of games not the most outstanding. Over time, the situation will change, developers will get used to the process, Sony will find effective methods of work and convey them to technical specialists. But, as I understand it, this is not happening now, and this is where the problem lies. Therefore, at the start of sales, some [покупатели PlayStation 5] may be disappointed with versions of games like Madden NFL, NBA 2K and Call of Duty. This is unlikely to make a very good impression, “explains Jeff Grubb.

It is noteworthy that more recently about the difference between Xbox series x and PlayStation 5 was told by another insider – Dusk golem, which on the example of the upcoming horror Resident evil village told that the developers from Capcom right now are having difficulty optimizing their new project on a Sony console

Soon after that Dusk golem reaffirmed his words, assuring readers that, according to his information, with performance Playstation 5 really everything is not too rosy. Moreover, according to his sources, the cost of the Japanese console may be higher than the price tag. Xbox series x

“People misinterpreted what I said a little bit, which is partly my fault. Of course Resident Evil 8 will perform well at launch. [на всех консолях], I never doubted it for a second. But many now need to prepare for an extremely likely scenario where the PS5 will cost more than its competitor. All this will put the Xbox Series X in a situation where it will not only be cheaper, but also more efficient. I’ve voiced the RE8 story as a common example, but other developers stumble across the same difficulty, especially when it comes to 4K resolution. You can expect a lot of “fake 4K”. Someone doesn’t care, yes, but it’s better to prepare yourself in advance. Xbox Series X has no such problems, “writes Dusk Golem.

Launching consoles Playstation 5 and Xbox series x will take place before the end of the year. A new gaming system from Microsoft will arrive in November.
