Analyst Damian Thong believes Sony to release the PlayStation 5 in 2018’s second half, and is making predictions about its GPU, which he said it would contain more than 10 teraflops making the PS5 the most powerful console that would ever be made.
It is worth mentioning that the upcoming Nvidia Geforce 1080 Ti will have 11 teraflops of power, so if what Damian Thong said is true, then the PS5 would have enough juice to rival flagship gaming PCs today.
“While the Scorpio’s dethroning could come swiftly at the hands of this newly fabled PS5, it is important to note that many gamers have been thoroughly dissatisfied with the more recent PS4 Pro, which shipped without 4K disk read capabilities and barely raises the bar any higher than the already aging benchmarks of the PS4, meaning Microsoft has a big opportunity to win over any disgruntled PlayStation owners in the months it has before the PS5 actually arrives in 2018.
Obviously, each iterative hardware release by either company will (hypothetically) be greater than the last, so news that the PS5 is going to be more powerful than Xbox Scorpio shouldn’t be much of a surprise to anyone, but if the reported hardware capabilities are true, then Sony will surely get a good long look from most gamers, especially with such a strong slate of exclusive games, such as the newest release, Horizon: Zero Dawn, which has seen massive success as the biggest new franchise launch seen by the PS4.”
