Sony has announced that its PS5 lead system architect, Mark Cerny, will provide a “deep dive” into the forthcoming console’s system architecture tomorrow. The video will stream on the PlayStation Blog at 9am PT (12pm ET / 4pm GMT).
he special event follows Sony’s confirmation of the PlayStation 5 name back in October, and details about the power of the console earlier in 2019. The PS5 will use an eight-core CPU (which will be based on AMD’s third-gen Ryzen line) and a custom GPU based on AMD’s Radeon Navi hardware. Sony is also supporting 8K resolutions, 3D audio, 4K gaming at 120Hz, a lower power consumption option, and it’s including an ultra-fast SSD inside the new console.
Sony’s event comes just days after Microsoft revealed the full specs for the Xbox Series X console.
