In the last month, Sony has begun the rollout of their latest revision of the PlayStation 5, model CFI-1202. There has already been a teardown showing the model’s redesigned board and cooling that is smaller and lighter. Power consumption is also reduced while giving the similar performance. To accomplish this, AMD’s Semi-Custom design teams have ported the PS5 silicon to TSMC N6, codename Oberon Plus. Angstronomics reveals exclusive images of the new, smaller die, and we discuss the how and the why behind this update.
During the Dead By Daylight Year 8 Anniversary event, it was revealed that a new collaboration with Castlevania is coming to the game.
VR goalkeeping game CleanSheet Football is getting ready for a PSVR 2 launch later this month from INCISIV Ltd.
Resident Evil's Mercenaries mode has been a highlight of the last few games and if it returns in RE9 then it needs to pull the trigger on one feature.
“we estimate that each new PS5 going forward costs Sony around 12% less to make overall”
And costs us 10% more to acquire - so the combination of a die shrink and price increase netted them a gain of 22%, nice!
Changing my day one for this model when it's available in the UK. Shouldn't cost anything extra really and a fresh warranty is always nice
Im interested in their new model that can be digital or disc with the addon usb drive. Will is be a slim or will it look like the existing ones? Good times are ahead.
So it is true that they use smaller chip in the latest SKU model.
Now having lighter more power efficient PS5 with the same outside shell design sounds like the way to go for me kinda like the 50000 model PS2.
There's a new rumor about another new PS5 model having a detachable USB-C Blu-ray drive to save cost.
But I'll be waiting for 1200 model to hit shelves and take one wanna save few bucks on electricity.
will help to increase supply. Demand is still strong.
