Oh look, someone at Sony decided to update the AMD graphics drivers included without first testing every combination to find the specific driver that actually works.....

Please don’t do this to me. The whole point of a console is convenience, and it’s not like you had to test for multiple platforms. You control the hardware.

Stop giving these companies your money!

They have what, 3 variants of the console? Regular, Slim, Pro?

Meanwhile on PC...

[–] [email protected] 19 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

No. They have 1 model with 2 cases. They use the same internal components, but the slim has a more compact cooling solution.

Only difference specs-wise is that the Slim has a ~1 TB SSD compared to the ~850 GB SSD

Thank you for the correction! I thought it was like the PS3 where there was different hardware inside the different models. Well, some of them.

...but wait, if all the internals are the same size, why wasn't the regular one the size of the Slim? Is it just space from having the disc drive removed?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

They only have 2 currently.

Pro isn't out yet.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

They're probably testing on it though

[–] [email protected] 1 points 12 hours ago

Probably even more so than what's currently in people's hands, based on the news article here. lol

Im a pc user, and the pc world is still a lot more complex than just "regular, slim and pro" versions. Different hardware and combinations males it a lot more complex.
You could say "low, medium and high end pc" but that means nothing as even a medium pc could have different cpu's, gpu's or even ram timings...

But yes, the different console versions is stupid

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

Yes, that was my point, haha

[–] [email protected] 3 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

I wonder what causes it because i updated fine and have been playing wukong with no lag.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Not all games were affected

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Wukong is one of the mentioned games.

The PS5 shit show continues.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

I love my PS5 🤷🏻‍♂️

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 hours ago

Same. I love my PS5 and have had almost no issues at all with it. I also love my PC but I use them for different purposes.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 10 hours ago

The last console I owned was a megadrive and I still don't feel I ever missed out on anything at all.
