They’ve taken some stuff out, and replaced it with more advanced equivalent is the word on the street. The only things we can go by at the moment is respected tech analysts and their vetted sources.

Red Gaming Tech (RGT): The PS5 has a custom feature to be found in future RDNA 3 Cards.

Well that is because the PS5 is a cross of Rdna 2,3 and 4. Maybe Sony can fully disclose when AMD unveils rdna4.

Ah ah, he's a long time Xbox fanboy. What's next ? Timdog ?
Some Xbox fans seem more interested in PS5 hardware than PS5 fans themselves. They definitely should buy a PS5 for their peace of mind. You know you can order one, yeah ? Come play with us and stop arguing about technical tags you don't understand at all.
I can't understand this stupid debate about RDNA version number. It makes zero sense, any platform maker may use a similar or better custom solution they made themselves of any RDNA feature, like they do all the time.
Look at the results, the results only. If Hellblade 2 or Demon's Souls looks great, who cares the RDNA version number or the way they achieved that ? Unless you're trying to get a dev job at AMD maybe...

Seeing this thread i can only imagine the theme music of x files playing while sony fans post all this nonsense, maybe a new case for fox mulder and dana scully?

Same guy who told a lot of BS months ago and tried to damage control what he said? He also seems to follow the biggest Xbox fanboys on twitter?
Yeah, that's him. lol
This guy doesn't even have a dev kit and said PS5 would struggle in open world games. It's obvious why XboxGAF would believe everything he says.

RGT apparently has very solid sources at least when it comes to AMD stuff, so in turn that would suggest he may have reliable info about both PS5 and XSSX.

Nah, dude. It's not crazy to say that a console has 1 or 2 features that will appear in a future GPU. This can apply to any console.

Guy's a tester, who got elevated to doing design bits at Sony. Got let go and has never had a job in the industry since.
In short: Not technically competent to do more than pass along scuttlebutt, not a great success in his chosen field of endeavor, and a person who may well have an axe to grind against his former employer. Credibility low as a result.

This fine gentleman must have parted ways with his former employer under less than amicable terms. “Full RDNA2”...Riiiiiiiiight...
I remember him from one of those quality Dealer’s podcasts...He does not know shit tech wise.

He leaked a lot of correct info on RDNA 2 PC GPUs so his sources are good. PS consoles always had stuff that was going to be implemented in future AMD GPUs, stock GCN 1.0 for X1 and Polaris for X1X and PS4 had GCN 1.1 prototype and Polaris with some Vega features in it for Pro.

Any future PC RDNA 3 can claim "full RDNA 2" when it's a superset of RDNA 2.

BiG NAVI's very fast 128 MB Infinity Cache is based on Zen 2's Level 3 cache IP, hence it has its own data retention behavior.
SRAM cache is not built the same.

It will be back compatible, but with a different collection of evolved tech features. Some will stay the same, but not all - otherwise it would just be RDNA2.

Both RDNA 2 and future RDNA 3 still runs on the native RDNA instruction set.
RDNA and RDNA 2 = GFX10 family. RX 6800's RDNA 2 GFX1030 a superset of RX 5700 XT's RDNA 1 GFX1010 .

Nobody thought a god of war sequel would be ready by next year bruh! Fuck outta here with that shit!

? MLID got it from RGT.
RGT probably heard it from Matt the former SCE software engineer, whom he invited on his show.
I watched a few MLID videos long before he got into next gen consoles rumors.
I standby my claims, he is throwing shit to see which sticks, his sauces are from 4chan,wcftech,vidzcardz which gets from chinese forums chiphell/bilibili,reddit,youtube,neogaf->internet->neogaf,twitter
aka he has no insider sources.
Unless you are MLID, i dont get your angst?

Regardless of if he shares wrong rumors, what was said in that specific clip was accurate and backed up by things that have been officially said.
Posting it in video form just makes it easier for the guys who seem to have a hard time reading.
So? What part of Custom chip is difficult to understand? Direct x api which is there in dekstop GPU is not part of Sony GPU. They have their own custom api for that. This has been done like million times and still people don't get it.

10-15 years ex and working at a sports company ? He really has a chip on his shoulder, friends with Timdog, wonder if he got kicked out as he is really bitter.
Who cares, his problem. You are going to say Odium is a developer next and quote him as well. LOL.

My point exactly lol. A new tweeter emerge. Fanboys are so naive and desperate at the same time. MS + AMD already shut that up. Now hope Ps5 ain't all smoke and mirrors like the 2tf ps3 or PS4 Pro doubling to 8.4 tf lol.
Edit: Only 800 followers lmao

Didn't the Xbox 360 have some GPU or CPU features at the time of its release that no PC had? I might be misremembering that. If so it's definitely possible.

The same guy who said that the PS5 would have a problem with open world games (the one with the much superior I/O subsystems...right...), before retracting his statement. Also the one who had heard that the difference between the two consoles was, and I quote, “staggering”...The guy is so full of shit, it is actually comical to see him have a go at it.

Unified shaders I believe.
Bluntman

Yes, it's GPU had unified shaders which came to PC months later.
PS5 has every GPU hardware capability the XSX has, the technologies built on top of them just have different names, or no specific names whatsoever. Microsoft is using DirectX 12 features as a marketing tool here. They are technically right tho, the PS5 won't have them, because the PS5 doesn't use DirectX 12, but it's PR speech nevertheless.
PS5 can most certainly have many custom things, some of which could end up in RDNA 3. So it's not that PS5 has RDNA 3 features, rather the opposite.

All it takes is 1 developer with a latest ps5 dev kit to spill beans.
If its true, there will be more in coming weeks, If its bullshit, there will not be anymore mention of this.
There are a number of twitter users who leak PC parts saying similar things, but we wait for better information for sure. (Kitty / Rogame circle). But again just gossip.
Cant keep secrets forever, it will all come out anyway.
For my part, I do not know so I am on the fence. Wait and see.

Yeah next few weeks someone will X-ray the PS5 APU and we'll know what the heck is in that chip.

Dont even need that, Just AMD to follow up with white paper on this slide and there it is if you read each point carefully and understand the direction and meaning.

Someone being dev means nothing. They could be devs and do something really minor in the company.
Long term hobbyist with passion for hardware probably knows more than most regular devs.
And this "full rdna2" is just retarded, when some take it as == best
Just shows how little they understand

Just hoping Sony releases a pic of the APU soon so we don't have to rely on poor scans from enthusiasts.

We know for sure the ps5 certainly does not have every gpu hardware feature the xsx has would you like me to list them or are you capable of looking it up yourself?

If you were to listen to some of these people the ps5 is less powerful than the PS4, maybe it's as good as the PS4 pro... But that's stretching it.

which people said that?
Its the other way round imo. Since Amd 28Oct event (or non-event for those hoping for certain unveil), the narratives have quickly switched to 'XSX is old and dated and weaker than PS5.'
Thank god most of us know the reality from fud attempts.

It literally happened with the PS4 and PS4 Pro. So, yeah it's normal.

so the xsx (54cu) is a 6800, (with 1 WG missing in each block... so 18 cu’s x 3) or two thirds or 66.6 (lol) percent of a 6800xt
so the xbox series S is 20cu, which is a quarter of a full 6900xt...
the split memory stuff in the xbox’es probably can be explained but the memory mapping of the cu’s...
(custom?)
a ps5 is a half of a 6800xt with lisa su “brand” of “hot sauce”... lol
