AMD CEO, Dr. Lisa Su, has once more been talking about the work its semi-custom division has been doing with Sony to get the Zen 2 processors, and the upcoming AMD Navi silicon, working for the needs of the PS5.
But just how much influence has Sony had on AMD’s next-gen graphics architecture? And if the answer is ‘a lot’ does that mean it has any call on hardware exclusivity, potentially shutting Microsoft out of a Navi-based APU?
The Pokemon Company had retail sales worth of 10.8 billion US Dollars in the year 2023, based on the latest report.
that merch tho.
ridiculous the numbers they pull in, which makes it even worse when i think about the low budget broken games they make. or have made recently
Bitmap Bureau has announced its plans to release Xeno Crisis to the Game Boy Advance in both physical and digital form.
We've wrapped up our live interview with Boosteroid. Lots of new information released about the cloud service:
- New datacenters (Brazil, California, Omaha)!
- New AMD hardware coming. Specialized for Boosteroid.
- Cloud Gaming User Counts
- Boosteroid Coming to Vehicles!
- New Smat TV Apps
The answer is no. Only custom design choices build around Navi will be console "exclusive", the GPU architecture wont and both will come equipped with a Navi/ Ryzen SoC.
Don't think so.
Highly unlikely given how much money they would lose by not selling to both
What doesn’t AMD have to gain by going exclusive?
Well if Sony worked closely with AMD developing a special Navi variant just for the PS5, then possibly that specific variant would be exclusive. I don't think that it really matters though, as I would think MS will have its own blueprint for a customized version of the chip.
