PS6 Chip’s Bill of Materials is $200 Lower Than Project Helix – Rumor
A rumor from leaker KeplerL2 suggests the PlayStation 6's bill of materials is approximately $200 lower than Microsoft's Project Helix chip, despite the latter having more raw compute power. The report indicates that console design is a long process and neither Sony nor Microsoft intended for next-gen consoles to exceed $1,000, with current hardware market conditions for memory and storage being a significant factor. Despite potential delays being discussed, production pipelines for both consoles are reportedly too far along to change.
