Could this mean we will be seeing a “refresh” of the PS5? … with as faster processor and possible more ram.
Taken from Videocardz … Following a launch of 4700S kit with salvaged PlayStation 5 SoC, AMD is set to launch a bit more powerful version known as 4800S very soon.
As we have revealed in December last year, AMD is preparing a new small-factor motherboard with a preinstalled processor. This device would offer more options than existing 4700S Kit and support more powerful GPUs.
Make no mistake, AMD 4800S Desktop Kit is not a high-end spec’ed system. Along with 4700S, those products are using repurposed current-gen console chips: PS5/XBOX Series. The 4800S has not yet been confirmed to use Xbox Series X chip, nor Xbox chip for that matter. However, given what we are hearing, this is very much the case.
Yesterday, with the announcement of Radeon Super Resolution, AMD mentioned 4800S Desktop Kit in the footnotes of the blog post. This is actually the first confirmation that 4800S even exists. It says that Smart Access Memory is supported on Ryzen 3000-6000 CPU series, but also on this Desktop Kit. It would appear that 4700S does not support SAM, but 4800S (and later) will.
