First PS5 Die Shot Posted Online; Here's the Console's SoC

The very first PS5 dice shot was posted online virtually an hour ago by Twitter user @FritzchensFritz, who specializes in taking close-ups (including infrared shots) of loftier-end chipsets.

One thing that'due south abundantly clear from the PS5 dice shot is how caches are separate, which means the PlayStation five features no Infinity Cache, despite speculations of the contrary. AMD introduced Infinity Cache on its RDNA 2-powered Radeon RX 6000 GPUs; it's an 'all-new enshroud level' of 128MB whose purpose is to enable high bandwidth performance at low power and low latency, acting equally a bandwidth multiplier, delivering up to 3.25x the effective bandwidth of 256-bit 16GB GDDR6 memory. The cache is seen past the graphics core every bit a whole, capturing temporal re-utilise and enabling nearly-instantaneous access to data.

Every bit a reminder, below you'll observe the official specs of the PlayStation 5 console. Sony's adjacent-generation hardware had the best launch ever for a PlayStation platform, the company said recently, though analyst firm Ampere Analysis believes it is on par with PlayStation iv thus far.
