  • AMD did not announce or unveil the Ryzen 3600G at CES 2019.
  • AMD wouldn’t call it the “Ryzen 3600G” in the first place.
  • AMD isn’t charging $199 for the nonexistent Ryzen 3600G.
  • $199 is almost certainly too much for just the console APU.

I got that on my phone this morning. There is so much wrong with it I couldn't stop laughing for a while. Suggesting that an APU that you or I might pay $199 for is the same that Sony would pay is utterly stupid. As for $400 for PS5? I'd revise that upwards quite a bit if I was you.

Another take on it.

I didnt write the article so therefore there is nothing for me to revise . My personal opinion is i dont have a favorite console, but to be honest i would rather support a new comer like the madbox if it is any good

So much nonsense in that article, they sure don't seem to know much about tech. :lol:

If rumoured APU 3600G exists with them specs, it's GPU would be too low end to be for a PS5. Graphics performance would be quite a bit below a PS4 Pro. Sony also won't be paying retail money for APUs too. Seems suitable for people who want a system with onboard graphics that can do so gaming on a level above 1050 Ti saving having to buy a separate graphics card.
