Well-lets be clear - if your gpu is unable to hold native resolution at at least 30 fps and rely on upscale - that means gpu is not sufficient for that resolution . And don’t forget the cpu part . In ps4 as cpu acted 8x netbook core cluster. Which was total junk even on release date . Previous generation of those cpu was destroyed by Intel ivy bridge U(15w ) i3 . Where 2 cores 4 threads of i3 completely destroyed 4 cores amd counterpart . I am highly doubt that this cpu changed much for consoles in next generation

Graphics evolution in low power bracket is extremely slow. Slowest possible

Evolution in sub 100w is faster but 10 years does not provided much difference in terms of architecture .all performance gains is mostly rely on lithography and clock speeds . And that’s the saddest part . Last lithography which added power efficiency was 14nm. That’s why ps5 does not started new next gen era .. ps5 is not far from ps4

Main problem of that chip is not the screen . Main problem is tablet grade power limit . Spec wise chip could handle 1080p easily

Even if directly compare them .old ps4 GCN design will be at least twice faster .. deck 15w - ps4 75w

Tablet grade is definition of thermal package . Not theoretical performance. For example let’s compare deck with Xbox series S (counterpart of ps4 pro) which feature the similar RDNA2 arch .

Xbox 1280/80/32 1565mhz clock 100w chip package power Deck 512/32/16 10000mhz clock 15w package power

I bet you understand that deck is not even close

Tablet grade 15w cpu+gpu package found his limit in games with 720p screen? Can’t be???!!!😆

It’s not THAT MUCH overspecified .. stable limit is somewhere 75w per rail (210w per 8p rail ) . With 100w (300w per rail ) even old 8p melted . Now imagine - they shrinked contact area for 1/2 of old 8pin connector.. and said - 100w per rail and 600w per connector- guaranteed 🤣

Lame excuses again . They reduced the contact area compared to the 150w 8 pin connector. At the same time they increased the power transfer. And started wonder why the contacts melted?
