How much does the ps5 cost in production?

The ps5 has built in such blatant things that they definitely make a minus. Which of course they bring in the money with other things. But that's not the point. How much would the ps5 actually cost if you produced it, so what you would pay for a console and what I would pay if I theoretically rebuilt the ps5 as a PC. I would be very interested in that.

You can't recreate the ps5 because exclusive parts are built in. The ps5 probably costs around 350 euro for the manufacturer. In addition, this is also the point of a console, simply that you get a lot of performance for little money, anyone could replicate it would no longer make sense.

I don't know the specs exactly now, but as with the previous Playstation devices, the parts are not that blatant and accordingly not that expensive. The software is responsible for the fact that the devices can still process high-end games.

The Playstation 5 would cost about 1388.99 euro as a PC, so nothing special. 1400 euro for a PC does not result in a high end, especially not with the weak graphics unit of the Playstation 5.

The Xbox Series X in comparison costs as about 1698.99 euro

Nobody here can tell you how much the console will cost to produce, since both Sony and Microsoft buy in bulk and have to pay a reduced amount…

For example, the SSD costs 100 euro and Sony buys 10 million pieces of it.

Normally you would then pay 1,000,000,000 euro, but that's not the case, Sony and Microsoft pay significantly less.

First of all, it is mass-produced which makes everything cheaper for Sony

Second, a current reasonably decent gaming PC will still surpass them

Beware, there will be a reason why Sony has still not named a price, which will be significantly higher than the Ps4. The times when consoles with expensive games were financed are over since the current gen

Unfortunately, there's no official evidence of how much the PS 5 would cost. They are mostly made in China or Japan. The production costs are estimated to be around 400 EUR. You can buy the console itself at the Teleshop Sender. The console costs around 1700 EUR. But unfortunately without a game. According to GIGA.de or other sources, the games should cost around 70 to 100 EUR.

The console should cost 1700 euro?

What world are you in

Rin Pc with a RX5700XT and a Ryzen 7 3700 costs only 1400 euro and even less.

Ke

That's true:-).

Above all, there's an RX5700XT in the Playstation 5. Just a bit of ray tracing which will look terrible on the Playstation.

In comparison, the Xbox Series X has roughly the performance of an RTX2080S

Ab

Yeah young, do you read or don't you watch the news? Ne Ps 5 is just a luxury. The 1700 EUR are only estimates. Can also cost 1500 EUR or something. You can read it on Giga.de.

Both are to be doubted ^^ Nobody would buy a console as expensive as an Iphone

That was no longer the case with the first Ps4 (eraser design) and the first Xbox One

Not even in your wet dreams…

It is still like that!

Or why are there subscription services, please?

Exactly to get back the lost money

Ke

That's so.

:-).

But yes, you Playstation players can only be jealous of us Xbox Live users:-)

Va

Please what?

Consoles are generally scraps, regardless of whether they are a Playstation or an xBox.

Ke

Reason?

FPS limitation
Strange operating system
Office or similar not possible
Expensive games and online services
Childish community

1. You have to accept the FPS limitation because the games are optimized for the consoles and fixed frame rates are required for this.

2. Strange operating system? With the Playstation yes, with the Xbox no. Why? Because the Xbox operating system is based on Windows 10

3. Why would you like to run Office on a game console 😂😂😂

4. The games are not particularly expensive than on the PC, but there are just more offers on the PC. You also have to accept the online service because you get a console for a very, very cheap price, for whose hardware you would normally pay 1000 euro or more.

5. The childish community is on the platform! No matter if PC, Xbox or Playstation! There are lots of kids everywhere! And why? Because children have more time than adults

Yes… That's exactly why you should get a PC. A PC for 500 euro (Ryzen 3 3300x and RX 570) easily manages over 120FPS in CS: GO, a console? Oops, the game is only available on the PC!

Strange operating system? With the Playstation yes, with the Xbox no. Why? Because the Xbox operating system is based on Windows 10

It is based on Windows 10, but has 0.5% of the functions.

Why would you want to run Office on a game console?

Don't you go to school or don't you have a job? On the cell phone you get cramps quickly and especially during the Corona period, home office was or is very important, which is impossible on consoles and only leads to more costs (e.g. For a new laptop).

The games are not particularly expensive than on the PC, but there are just more offers on the PC. You also have to accept the online service because you get a console for a very, very cheap price, for whose hardware you would normally pay 1000 euro or more

It depends on which game is being talked about.

In Minecraft, an old office PC creates higher frame rates than the PS5 or xBox Series X will have. In e.g. In GTA V it's the other way around.

One can't generalize that.

I'm just saying "console war".

Sure there are people like that in the real gaming community, but not even close to as many as there are with consoles.
