As you may know yesterday afternoon, Sony has made the final decision by providing more technical details than will be its commitment to the new generation of consoles: PS5. As is often the case in these types of ads, we get reactions of all kinds from fans and big personalities in the industry.
Some may not remember it, but one of these is Albert Penello, the first commercial head of the Xbox. As reported Wccftech, Penello has decided to approach the Rocketera forum to find and comment on his upcoming Sony console ideas, and we're here to tell you.
Tony made a wise decision with PS5, according to Penello
After yesterday's announcement, Albert Penello had some doubts about GPU flexibility and the Sony console console's CPU flexibility:
Did I hear right? For GPU to reach 2.3. Ghz, CPU * can't work at full speed? I have to admit, I am confused as to how well the calibration power will work.
Cerny said that excess CPU power will go to the GPU to hit 2.23. He then talked about the "theoretical" case where the CPU and GPUs could outperform.
In addition to talking about variable frequency, Penello was also asked if he was satisfied or disappointed by the general specs, replied that he never expected the PS5 to offer much higher power than the 9 TFLOPs, but if the console comes at a competitive price it will have a positive impact
I think they make quite a few trips, actually. Remember, I never thought it would exceed 9 TFLOPs so I'm not disappointed. If the console comes at a price of $ 399 it will be a lot of fun.
In the end, he also wanted to talk about the SSD the PS5 would have, in light of yesterday's announcement it would have great potential, and compared to the Xbox Series X it didn't know how it would launch for better or worse:
Well, the Xbox has its own drive, and the internal SSD is for sale on board, so I'm not sure which is better or worse.
Albert Penello has worked for Microsoft for over 18 years, and it's exciting to know the opinion of someone with a wealth of experience in the industry. Of course, as we have already stated, they were not the only ones to indicate their reaction to the announcement made by Sony, and that, for example, Microsoft congratulated the Japanese company yesterday.
