Sony teases new GPU tech coming to its next PlayStation
"Sony's next console (presumably the PS6) is coming in "a few years time," according to someone who I'd believe to make that claim. Mark Cerny, lead architect on the PS5 and PS5 Pro, joined Jack Huynh, SVP and GM of AMD's computing and graphics group, in a YouTube video wherein the pair spend nine minutes going through some very specific, co-developed advancements in graphics technology that will come to the next console. But the pair cautioned that the technologies are still "very early days" and "only exist in simulation right now.""
"Much of it boils down to how the companies are working to make it easier for future GPUs to handle graphics upscaling, ray tracing, and the super-intensive path tracing techniques used to make game worlds look more realistic. Cerny says "the current approach has reached its limit," so Sony is working with AMD to integrate components of its next-gen RDNA architecture in future consoles. AMD's Huynh introduced Radiance Cores (similar in theory to Nvid"
Sony's next console is expected in a few years. Mark Cerny and Jack Huynh outlined specific, co-developed GPU advancements that currently exist only in simulation. The developments aim to enable future GPUs to handle graphics upscaling, ray tracing, and computationally intensive path tracing more easily. Cerny stated that the current approach has reached its limit, prompting Sony to integrate components of next-gen RDNA architecture into future consoles. AMD introduced Radiance Cores as a hardware element to improve ray/path tracing and upscaling efficiency. The technologies target faster performance and better power efficiency, with potential benefits for consoles and handheld gaming devices.
