In case you missed this very confident "leaker" of the now confirmed devkit of the console (again: devkit):


Sony details HDMI 2.1 features in its 2020 OLED & LCD TVsTech Guru wrote A side note , which is disappointing & underwhelming , that at CES 2020 2020 Sony 4K TV flagships (X900H & X950H) are not confirmed to have the fully fledged HDM 2.1 inputs with 48Gbps , VRR , ALLM , & QFT. The 8K Z9H is only confirmed to have the full fat HDMI 2.1 ports.

Nice Update.
So most probably the x900h will be the perfect fit. I am still skeptical until I see the official testing / reviews of rtings.com with their comprehensive thorough testing.
65" 4k HDMI 2.1 HDR TV or 65" 8K HDMI 2.1 HDR TV a good one nets you a an easy 2k + PS5 + UPS for it etc.. ~ 600 USD min , plus yearly memberships for Network .. For a full fludged experience, nets a USD 3k investment min Full package ~ extreme pc case lol.
Sony/Cerny focuses on balance, so they won't incorporate a huge bus while they cant feed it accordingly. Also MS used a mixed module configuration because for each bus width there is a set number of manufactured chips and thus configurations, here is a table to explain things:Tech Guru wroteIt will have a relative RTX2070 super class perfromance in raw rasterized rendering , with optimized titles like Sony Exclusives
Native 2160p High Setting / 60Fps or 120fps on Pesudo 2160p ( as the current PS4 Pro Does ) - Checkerboarding , Dynamic 2160p , 1800p upscaled to 2160p.
Lot of Hype and fake percetions , actual perfromance will be like that.
Added , for 2160p 120hz a decent 55-65" 4K Real HDR HDMI 2.1 TV is needed ~ 2k USD.
It will have a 6 years Life Cycle for a 2080 and a CPU < i7 9700k level performance + a new tv investment for the 2160p 120fps feature (HDMI 2.1)
It would have been much better for the ps5 to have 352 bit bus interface ~ on GDDR6 rather than a 256 bit bus interface. This will give a real graphical computational power not a 5.5 Gb /sec SSD.
A Gen 3 PCI current NVME nets 3.5GB / sec vs 5.5 GB / sec nets a few seconds less in loading & textures streaming.
Nevertheless, if Sony continues its trend on solid exclusives. PS5 will seal the deal vs Xbox Series X.
One point I really dislliked about the Xbox Series X and it needs proprietary expansion card. It will only accept the Xbox Series X Storage Expansion Card. It’s being developed by Segate. The PS5, on the other hand, will have an expansion bay for an off-the-shelf M.2 NVMe SSD giving it more flexibility.
Frankly I am not convinced with Sony approach. A 3700x class CPU and RTX 2070 - 2080 equivalence - More than 480GB/sec of memory bandwidth will not be bottlenecked at all at 2160p , it is the opposite higher memory total bandwidth will push more frames ( min frames at 2160p). Example an RTX 2080ti has a memory bandwidth of 616GB/s will not be bottlenecked at all a system that has an I7 8700k / 3700x at 2160p 60fps or 60fps gameplay.kareem_nasser wroteSony/Cerny focuses on balance, so they won't incorporate a huge bus while they cant feed it accordingly.

DF clearly explained the different approaches here, and in some cases the XSX might be bottlenecked due to the huge GPU and CUs which requires a relevant number of ROPs, memory and memory speed to be fed. DF also stressed that the clock speeds on PS5 are ambient temperature agnostic.
Currently there is not much to talk about which matters the most...Games, both didnt talk much about games (if at all) and MS focused on backward compatibility, yet again. I know they have a dedicated team for it, but still this is a brand new console.
Thats impossible. They have xbox to compete with and could if it had a price like that it wont sell. Probably a mistake.Tech Guru wrotePlayStation 5 will cost a massive $1032, A Danish Store listed its pre-order:

Agree. I have enjoyed Sony Exclusives on the PS4 Pro they nail it in:TrollFatGuy wroteI see your point in that, and while I do agree with everything you mentioned, the biggest counterargument is exclusives.
Most (if not all) Xbox games are coming to PC, where you can enjoy them with as high of a quality you would like, so I do not see the appeal in owing an Xbox at all. Nintendo and PS consoles on the other hand, have the best exclusives.
If I recall correctly, you mentioned on a separate thread when God of War came out, just how good of a game it was. There a ton of exclusives out there, which is the sole reason I own a PS4 (non-pro mind you; I only have it to play the game on a 720p TV) and am looking to get a switch.
I am not saying I will purchase the PS5 on launch date, but as long as the exclusives are that good, I know I will be buying the consoles for the games and playing them at sub-par quality just for the experience.
