I wonder how the PC market compares to the PlayStation 5's speeds.
You can achieve, and beat, PS5 read speeds on PCIe 5.0. No game will really take advantage of it though. They don't even really take advantage of it on the consoles
I think it's a chicken-or-egg dilemma for PC gaming. Game devs don't want to lose the big market of legacy hardwares, so core gamers can't maximize their top notch PC's potentials.
I wonder how the new Ratchet and Clank runs on pcs.
Good question. I found a comparison video by GamerInVoid https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VODSVVkKRD4
According to their video, I think Ratchet and Clank is still playable on a PC with SATA SSD, but the waiting time when jumping between the worlds is definitely longer than NVMe
Mostly fine. The loading screens (rifts) just take a bit longer on slower hardware.
Akin to volume 10 and 11 on an amp. Would you really notice if it only said 10?
Well it's one louder, isn't it? It's not 10.
