AMD may never be able to catch up with Intel. With the reviews of the Ryzen processors being absolutely disappointing.
During Sony’s recent business segment meeting and investor presentation regarding its game and network services, the PlayStation company revealed that PlayStation 5 is the company’s “most profitable generation to-date.”
It’s the top slide of the presentation, showing that in its first four years, the PS5 generation has already hit $106 billion in sales, having almost caught up to the PS4’s total $107 billion generated.
Operating income for the PS5 generation has also already surpassed that of the PS4, having now reached $10 billion.
I wouldn't doubt it. They released a high quality system. A lot of high quality games from themselves and their support of 3rd party developers and indies. They released many high quality remakes and remasters. They released a high quality GaaS game going against the naysayers thinking Sony would abandon single player games. And they most likely are profiting a lot more than PS1, PS2 PS4 and the loss leading PS3 that drained all their profits.
Now, I'll wait to see what's cooking tomorrow. But can you use some of those profits to better support your high quality VR headset? Because, by supporting it, you can sell more games and more systems and make more profits?
This will surely shut up all the new trolling accounts trying to spread lies and non facts in other articles comment sections before this article is posted.
Wow! I am super impressed that in just 4 years, ps5 already caught up to the PS4's. Congratulations.
This sounds like a very interesting mobile gaming PC. ZOTAC returns to COMPUTEX 2024 to showcase its biggest push yet into brand-new product categories from Handheld Gaming.
An official PlayStation VR2 adapter for PC made by Sony is being certified. It won't be long before the VR headset is officially compatible.
one step closer to unlocking the headsets full power.
I'm extremely underwhelmed with how Sony has treated it's psvr2 customers seriously Nintendo treated it's Wii U owners of which the sales were probably equal in the headsets 2bd year v the consoles far better.
This is the least they could do
so now Sony is going to sell me an adapter I have to buy so I can use the headset on my PC? Gee, how generous of you :P
While it's great that I will be able to use this headset instead of my Index or Q3 for PC only VR titles, it's still a sad realization that Sony is sorta waiving the white flag here. Here's hoping they at least make some of their PSVR2 exclusive content available on PC as well now.
It's most likely just going to be a usb c to usb 3 adapter. Even for modern era a lot of new cases and motherboards don't have a usb c ports.
The budget but still fairly fairly high end pc I recently helped my friend build. He went with a b550 motherboard. Didn't have a usb c port or a on board socket to connect a pc case with a front panel usb c. Had to get a cheap pcie usb c.
The game engines and windows can be patched. During the bench marks for DX12 AMD was crushing NVidia. Now NVidia has updated there drivers and flipped those bench marks. I don't know that this will happen for Ryzen, but it could.
I think a lot of the testing so far is rather misleading. Ryzen is an incredibly powerful CPU and in tests that are designed to take advantage of high core and threads you see it doing very well. Mostly outperforming Intel and definitely outperforming Intel in operations per dollar.
But when it comes to gaming the software itself is based around a four core system and isn't taking advantage of Ryzens extra cores and threads. I was watching someone benchmark games and game after game the Ryzen was only using 25-35% of the cores/threads power. When gaming software catches up and takes advantage of higher core/thread counts Ryzen will shine.
This happened at the start of multi core computing where single core processors that were able to run at higher frequencies at first outperformed dual core processors. That was until the gaming companies really started pushing threading. And well the rest is history. Now you can't even buy a single core processor. Ryzen is ahead of the curve and a great value option.
For me getting 10% higher FPS doesn't outweigh the multitasking ability of Ryzen. If you stream games (or do video editing to upload to YouTube) I can guarantee Ryzen will be able to stream (capture) and play better than a 4 core 7700k. Or for me, I often play a game on one monitor and watch a movie or a stream on another monitor Ryzen is much better for that.
I watched Linus Tech Tips review and they looked really good.
A Lot of people dont understand that. Drivers... Bios and other updates need to come out for these CPUs. I seen lot of people shit talking these but yet they still pack a punch even if not fully up to par. But cost 1/2 of what Intel is selling. people would be saying this 1 or 2 years later when Zen is a monster and at its peak
the consoles will keep amd alive for as long as it takes for them to beat intel
