fucking bits how do they work?

 

[Spukc]

PS5 is 64 bits, a major step down from PS2 that was 128 bit.

PS3 was 2TF - PS4 only 1.8TF. Sony downgrades their consoles all the time...

This is not how any off this works

 

[Moses85]

it'll have all the bits you desire

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

More like zero tits.

 

[saintjules]

*all the bits*

I'll raise you

 

[Bigfroth]

It will be a minimum of 2048 bits, plus the ability to display a full 256 colors in an all-new format.

 

[Hyper_hyper]

Lol

Good memories abou 32, 64, 128 bit GPUs.

[OLED_Gamer]

2,048 tits?

Oh… bits. Whatever.

 

[BlackTron]

Since it's apparently just flexing N64 ports anyway, Switch 2 should have been called the Switch 2,048

 

[Gameplay Gods Bless]

Not sure where you got that number from. The PS5 has a 64bit CPU.

Bits being a defining aspect of performance hasn't been a thing for decades.

256bit bus too but even if you add them up (lol) it's not 1k bits

 

[Ceallach]

Literally all I can think of is AVGN whenever someone mentions bits

 

[troubledApplicant]

Yes

PSSixer will have 2048 tits...

Tits and bits can work in harmony

 

[Kemosabe666]

Damn I really miss the bits...
Too bad it stopped after the N64.

 

[saintjules]

 

[VeganElduderino]

64 bits of pure power

 

[Wonko_C]

Sorry op but we stopped counting bits a couple decades ago...

It's bytes now, so PS6 will be a 256-byte console, duh.

 

[German Shocks]

2,048 tits?

Oh… bits. Whatever.

That's only 8 tits.

You still have 2,040 more tits to go.

 

[Hello My Name is]

LOL, where did the 1024 bits come from. I'd love to see the math on that one.

PS1 32bits, PS2 128bits, PS3 256 bits, PS4 512 bits, PS5 1024 bits. Simple.

 

[Bojji]

PS1 32bits, PS2 128bits, PS3 256 bits, PS4 512 bits, PS5 1024 bits. Simple.

They totally forgot about 64 bits.

 

[rodrigolfp]

PS1 32bits, PS2 128bits, PS3 256 bits, PS4 512 bits, PS5 1024 bits. Simple.

Not so simple as Sony skipped 64 bit so your original point about "doubling" don't stand.

 

[xanaum]

I love these drunk weekend threads on GAF.

 

[SportsFan581]

PS1 32bits, PS2 128bits, PS3 256 bits, PS4 512 bits, PS5 1024 bits. Simple.

You've got to have at least a convoluted excuse, haha. At least Dreamcast had the 128bit FPU, Xbox had the 128bit bus, etc. Getting to 1024 would have to be a trip for the PS5 with the 64bit CPU and the 256bit GPU bus. That's what you call going full "Jaguar".

 

[StueyDuck]

You know... im more of a 2047 bits man myself. That extra bit is just excessive and I wont be a part of it, no sir

No. PS5 uses a 64 bit CPU but the GPU is higher.

2 hours of pushin broom buys an 8 by 12 4-bit room.

 

[Audiophile]

2048 Bitcoins

 

[Shogmaster]

I added all the rumored bits in PS6.

It's 69 bits exactly. Plus or minus infinity.

 

[PlayStaytion]

Since the PS5 is 1,024 bits, will Sony do the historical move of doubling bits to 2,048 or will they try to save money with only 50% more bits? Perhaps they will go with 1,536 bits for the handheld and 2,048 bits for the console?

You've just multiplied the number twice on every gen after the PS2. PS6 is different, basically it's everything except high bit count for whatever reason and it takes Cerny to explain all this.

Oh, you meant encryption? No, the US government would prefer being able to sniff your data.

You're saying you expect 4,096 bits? That would make a 5090 look like an Atari.

 

[rodrigolfp]

Very possible for them to skip a gen again. Poor Nvidia will need to catch up fast with AMD bits...

 

[Audiophile]

PS2's embedded RAM has a 2560-Bit Bus Width of sorts, so I guess that wins...

whoa, that's a LOT of blast processing!

 

[nkarafo]

Bits?

The exact post i wanted to make when i saw the OP

 

[poppabk]

Helix is rumored to have 2049 bits. Game over for Sony.

 

[Hideous Snake]

 

[Jesb]

If bits never disappeared how many bits would this generation be? We went from 64 to 128 I assume when we went Dreamcast. So I assume PS3 was 256, and than I assume PS4 would be 512, so than maybe PS5 would be 1024. So yeah, PS6 will it be 2048?
