This escalated after an interview with an engineer from Epic China (which has since been taken down) revealed that the demo seen running on the PS5 ran just as well on a laptop. In fact the PC reportedly ran the demo better, with the PS5 managing 30fps at 1440p while the laptop hit 40fps at the same resolution.

The laptop in question is no slouch mind, featuring Nvidia RTX 2080 graphics and a 970 Evo Plus. Epic's CTO, Kim Libreri, has already confirmed to us that you'll get "pretty good" performance with UE5 running on something like an RTX 2070 Super, but having a more specific performance figure is always good.

2080 about to be old news after the next series of cards. Supposedly a huge jump from the 2000 series.

Consoles will never compete with pc. It's like comparing a professional sprinter to a person with no legs. Shouldn't even compare the two.

I don't think it's even a little bit surprising that a card that cost more than the likely launch price of the PS5 is more powerful than the PS5. Especially when I was under the impression that the new Xbox was even more powerful than the PS5.

PS5 was never intended to graphically compete with PC which is why Sony didn't stupidly advertise the console that way and focused more on optimization.

Microsoft on the other hand, didn't get the memo and that's why they're going to get slaughtered again in the console race.

How did MS advertise it as a PC competitor? I've just seen them advertise it as the most powerful console ever, which is still true

Sorry they didn't however marketing it as the "Most powerful console ever" along with its PC tower design instead of a budget gamer PC that's only a difference of a couple hundred bucks makes the whole idea of buying an Xbox seem even more pointless in the upcoming gen. Sony at least has a really good catalog to carry them on a slightly weaker hardware.

30 FPS? They're seriously going for resolution over FPS at the stage where at? Next generation will be 64K graphics and 20fps outdoors

Yeah no shit, it's not even a fair comparison. A console is made to be powerful enough to impress but cheap enough to be widely available, and often sold at a loss initially to build up a big enough audience. High-end PCs aren't aimed at the same target audience, they're always going to overtake console hardware.

I highly doubt Sony or MS want to sell at a loss anymore.

That's why the jump between the 7th Generation -> 8th Generation of consoles wasn't that great in terms of graphical fidelity.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seventh_generation_of_video_game_consoles

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eighth_generation_of_video_game_consoles

I'm pretty sure they spec-ed out their hardware to "Break Even".

That's it.

A high end laptop outperforming the PS5 is obvious though. The question is; can a laptop under $750 outperform the PS5.

Zero excuse in 2020 (current year btw) for 60FPS not to be the baseline standard for consoles and PC's.

laptops are also notoriously overpriced for the same performance as desktops so the price difference is much less than people here are actually saying.

tv is 30fps, figure out how to market 60fps.

Graphics sells, no one's going to give a fuck if the xbwak is going 60 fps at a lower resolution, they're going to do a video comparison and go look this looks worse than this! So you will always have consoles aim for resolution over frames, because resolution condensed still looks better.

No one wants consoles to run for 1k+. You're fine to choose to want to spend more to get better graphics and better frames, that's cool. But this notion that the pc mustard race can't figure out basic marketing is a bad look.

Man, for people that allegedly have a way better experience, PC guys sure are salty.

Maybe it's the 30 different launchers clogging up their desktop.

Or the hacked online clusterfuck that every game turns into.

A lot of us are just tired of consoles holding games back. The new AC game for example will "aim for" consistent 30fps... that's just sad. Not to mention every game being babyfied for console players who are scared of actual buttons to press.
