PlayStation 5 vs. Xbox Series X: Comparing the specs

Earlier this week, Microsoft revealed the details for the upcoming Xbox Series X. Now, Sony has done the same for the PlayStation 5. This means we can start looking at their specs side-by-side. And while this is far from the whole story when it comes to how much you’ll enjoy either box, it’s an important first step in figuring out which one is right for you. The quick version is that in terms of raw graphics power, Xbox Series X has an edge over the PS5. If you only care about the teraFLOPS number, which measures how many floating point operations per second a video card can perform, Microsoft is on top. Xbox Series X has 12 TFLOPS while PS5 is pumping out 10.28 TFLOPs. But the new Xbox doesn’t over match PS5 across the board.
