That's up to Sony as the Pro uses a downclocked 480 which originally retails at 240 and higher. Does Sony have the engineers to custom create a CPU like microsoft has to limit the cost? Microsoft uses a 1070 equivalent but cost was cut because they custom made their CPU in house. Don't be surprise to see Microsoft Scorpio at 399. The only negative is memory which is why Sony PS4 originally was 399 at launch. DDR4/5 is expensive
Sony has used customization on all of their CPUs. Even the ones in the OG/Pro PS4s. They are a hardware company and that's what they do.
The cell should have been used again, but I know they wanted to go the x86 route to make things easier and cheaper so I don't "blame" them but that cell cpu was a beast.
I just don't see Scorpio being 399....not with a water cooling solution and those specs. 499 at best. It's obviously not a machine for the masses, but 399 damn near impossible with what they are putting in there. And you better get a warranty on your shyt!
