delusional
"A delusional person believes things that couldn't possibly be true. If you're convinced that the microwave is attempting to control your thoughts, you are, sadly, delusional.
Delusional comes from a Latin word meaning "deceiving." So delusional thinking is kind of like deceiving yourself by believing outrageous things. Delusional thoughts are often a sign of mental illness, but the word can also be used more loosely to describe behavior that is just not realistic. If your friend thinks he's going to get rich playing video games, he's probably not mentally ill, but it's not a stretch to call him delusional."
I am pretty sure you are saying anyone that believes PS5 is 13TF or more is delusional. That you have insider knowledge from your developer friends that is fact and PS5 wont be 13TF or greater and anyone that believes contrarily to your opinion is delusional.
No. I’m not saying anything of the sort. I’m saying that there are quite obvious theoretical limits to how things work in conjunction with each other, and that you are essentially pushing common sense and proven theory aside, to get your box of choice to a level of performance that isn’t realistic.
You are free to believe whatever you want. Believe the earth is flat for all I care? But when people show you pictures of it round, don’t move the goal posts and call people crazy. Work within the confines of reality. I’ll say this again, and then my time in this thread talking about anything of substance is sorted:
What’s more plausible? That Sony have an 10.5-11.5tf machine that has a few parts better than MS and bridges the gap. A machine that is on par with performance as everybody says, matches what a lot of what people say including people I know personally, and also matches the rumoured bom costs, making it an achievable price point for mass market appeal but still higher than we have seen before.
Or....... that Sony have some how managed to make a machine cheaper than anybody else on the planet, that runs faster than the SX not by a little but by a considerable amount, have got around voltage and heat issues and increased the yields on their chips higher than anybody has ever managed before to this point, including stuck it all inside a much smaller traditional form factor.
Remember it’s not the fact that it’s faster that’s the issue. It’s the fact that 12-13tf is already pushing limits of what is known to be usable on a mass market level with yields that won’t sink a company and heat that will be manageable, all at a good price. MS will have stopped at the level they are because they know this, and yes, anybody who understands technology knows that once you go past this point with this level of technology at this supposed price range, you are going to get massive diminishing returns for much more risk.
I would be saying the exact same thing the other way around, it just so happens though that it’s not, and as such you don’t like that. Notice that you people are all crying about anything the same. 9tf or 0.5 off of 12. It doesn’t matter, you won’t entertain the idea, at all, that it’s NOT the fastest thing in the world. And I’m not saying it’s impossible, no... I’m saying it’s HIGHLY unlikely.
But please keep on calling me delusional now for the second time for using actual back-up-able hard data as to why these expectations are unrealistic.
Also, welcome to the block club. I don’t have time for people who can’t hear other opinions. You’ll notice several people here that I both disagree with and disagree with me, who are NOT acting like children. Maybe take some tips from that.
