Next Gen PlayStation: zvonuri si discutii

[paul]

M-am gandit ca daca avem Next Gen Xbox: zvonuri si discutii, sa fie un loc si pentru urmatorul PlayStation.

Ieri Nishino, president si CEO SIE, a raspuns asa cand a fost intrebat daca urmatoarea generatie va fi cloud gaming:

“Cloud streaming is progressing well from a technical standpoint, as we have demonstrated with [our] offerings, but end-to-end network stability is not in our control and the higher cost per playtime compared to the traditional console model remains a challenge."

“Cloud gaming is increasingly providing an additional option for players to access content, but our belief is that the majority of players continue to want to experience gaming through local execution without dependency on network conditions. And PS5 and PS5 Pro have validated this thesis, I believe.”

“We now have a large ecosystem of highly engaged players across both the PlayStation 5 and the PlayStation 4 generations. So naturally, therefore, there’s a huge interest in our next generation console strategy.”

“While we cannot share further details at this stage, the future of the platform is top of mind. We are committed to exploring a new and enhanced way for players to engage with our content and services.”

Zvonurile spun ca va fi si o portabila. Ceva detalii de la KeplerL2:

KeplerL2: There is no planned Z3 lineup for AMD's next-gen APUs. The next OEM handheld APU lineup (if it happens at all, as AMD seems to be losing interest in this market) will be with their next-next-gen lineup in 2029. The only AMD handheld with AI upscaling anytime soon will be the Playstation handheld.

so we can expect the handheld to have 16GB of ram.
KeplerL2: Well duh, 16 GB of LPDDR5X is dirt cheap

We can also expect that machine to have 36CUs
KeplerL2: Nah, remember RDNA5 has way way way higher perf/CU.

KeplerL2: Handheld only has 1/3 the memory bandwidth of the PS5 (although more cache and improved memory compression), it's pretty obvious that a mode that cuts bandwidth in half is meant to simulate the handheld.

How much more cache? Do you know?
KeplerL2: 4MB L2 + 16MB MALL

Would they launch with this type of memory few years down the line still though?
KeplerL2: Yeah, LPDDR6 is too far away still

RDNA5 or RDNA6 though? Isn't this a spin off of the PS6 die?
KeplerL2: Both are a fork of gfx13 (RDNA5/UDNA/whatever AMD decides to call it)

how does it compare to PS5 GPU again (main bandwidth abuser)?
KeplerL2: PS5 and PS5 Pro are both 4MB L2 but with no MALL (Infinity Cache)
