- Microsoft and Sony both pulled back the curtain on the internal specifications of their next-gen consoles this week following months of anticipation.
- We can now at least partially compare the performance of the Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, although we have yet to see either running a next-generation video game.
- While the PS5’s raw numbers pale in comparison to those of the Xbox Series X, both will be incredibly powerful and should run current-gen games at lightning speeds.

By the time we actually get our hands on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X this holiday season (providing the virus doesn’t ruin everything), many of us will have forgotten all about the teraflops and gigahertz.
No matter how powerful a new video game console is, what really matters is the quality of the games available on the console, and how well it plays those games. Unfortunately, it will be quite some time before we can see either the PS5 or the Xbox Series X running next-gen games, so in the meantime, there’s only one way to compare the two.
This week, both Sony and Microsoft divulged the full specifications of their upcoming consoles, and while there are a number of similarities, there are a few key differences that will have fans arguing for months.
