Although so far there has been much talk about what the next generation's gadgets will carry, the fact is that today it is not known for sure what the Xbox Series X or Playstation 5 parips are. However, building blocks New consoles are enough to try to determine the practical fullness in the functionality they will provide. And this is how they compare the CPU performance of current and next-generation consoles, and provide information as close as possible to the achievements.
To begin with, to take a lesson done by redgamingtech, we have to consider the CPUs of the existing consoles, where we get the same type of processor on the Sony and Xbox consoles. Jaguar-based CPU, which has 8 cores at different clock speed. In fact, it is particularly interesting to note that, in addition to providing efficient Teraflops capabilities, attempts to fit data into today's widely used unit, Computer Units, or Compute Units.
| Playstation 4 | Playstation 4 Pro | Xbox One | Xbox One X | |
| CPU | AMD Jaguar 8 Cores 1.6GHZ | AMD Jaguar 8 Cores 2.1GHZ | AMD Jaguar 8 Cores 1.75GHZ | AMD Jaguar 8 Cores 2.3GHZ |
| GPU architecture | Based on GCN 1.1 | Based on GCN 4 with a specific GCN 5 | Based on GCN 1.0 | Based on GCN 4 (Polaris) |
| GPU types | 18 Compute Units @ 800MHz | 36 Compute Units @ 911MHz | 12 Compute Units @ 853MHz | 40 Compute Units @ 1172MHz |
| TFLOPS | 1.84 | 4.2 | 1.31 | 6 |
| RAM | 8GB GDDR5 | 8GB GDDR5 & 1GB DDR3 OS | 8GB DDR3 and 32MB in SRAM | 12GB GDDR5 |
| The bandwidth | 176GB / s | 217.6GB / s | DDR3 68GB / s eSRAM 204GB / s | 326GB / s |
And here we see that current payers, Playstation 4 Pro and Xbox One X, offer around 36 and 40 Universities, respectively. And from here, to analyze what might have been verified, establishing a direct relationship between what is here and what will enter P5-build and Xbox Series X. Even if you try to extract more information than is necessary, for example, to find the number of elements, it is impossible today. It is known that both the Xbox Series X and Playstation 5 will have an AMU-based CPU The Zen 2 8-core is, therefore, 16 threads. frequency will exceed 3.2Ghz.
Based on estimates and assumptions, calculations are possible 56 units to integrate Xbox Series X, translated in the form of 12 TFlops, and 40 Compute Units in the latest version of Playstation hardware. of what is known.
Now, we are focusing on the analysis of current and next-generation CPUs, where they seem to be able to establish some performance data. By comparing the 8-core Jaguars that equip today's hardwares, to find different prices for the 8-core processors on the market based on Zen 2, a very exciting conclusion is drawn. On the other hand, the function of adding functionality based on Multithreading or multithreading has improved considerably. But thanks to the practical power, we see that the various AMD Zen processors offer far greater functionality than those offered in the past.
Processor for Playstation 4 Pro, 8-core Jaguar at 2.1 Ghz, to discard modest statistics in comparison with any other proposed analytical procedure. In fact, the result of Ryzen 7 3700X which may be ready for configuration available for Xbox Series X or Playstation 5 at 3.5Ghz. We're talking about four times the performance of Jaguar's PS4 Pro.
Keep in mind that this AMD Zen 2 CPU shed already introduces newer technologies, such as RDNA, which helps to get up to 25% better performance. In addition, tests have been done taking into account other factors, such as new ones NMVe SSD and the memory of the latest generation with the same features described for these comforters. The fact is that whatever CPU they put on to console the next generation, the performance jump seems to be much larger than it seems to be set for GPUs.
In addition, another part of this performance analysis is to talk about AMD's efforts to ensure that its components do not consume too much energy. Thank you RDNA2 you get better performance with more powerful use. However, in this environment, console settings are not allowed to be targeted in the PC sector, because they are specifically designed for hardwares with very customizable settings. The time will come when we will see how much food consumes a new generation, but We know that their consumption will reach the highest level with the services they can offer.
For the most part The success achieved by AMD in launching its CPUs in Ryzen is undeniable. Even on PC, these processors have far exceeded the performance of Intel processors. And now, with the introduction of the APU for laptops, AMD is back to offer the result of the thanks to the Ryzen 4000, who have offered almost twice that of Intel processors for the same hardware profile.
If you look at the consoles, this analysis compares the CPU performance of the current and the next generation, which shows something already described. And that a large part of the old connection will not be left in the drawings as much as the idea of the game they were preparing. Greater power in the CPU will allow for better use of physics, AI and features that can serve as a viable jump to gaming knowledge and help to work more effectively.
And as always, this commentary is only trying to draw conclusions based on guesses, because today, there is no clue as to what side of the new generation will handle. Of course, it seems likely that Microsoft is betting first on raw power, if the data shown in this analysis is verified.
