The amount of RAM in the PS5 is about what we expected, given modern PC comparisons, but it’s a lot of RAM for a video game console, which typically has small amounts compared to their PC cousins.
The PS4 only has 8GB of RAM and the PS4 before it had a paltry 256MB! Not even a single gigabyte! As we’ll soon discover in the storage section of this page, this amount of RAM is helpful, but it will be pushed to new heights of efficiency in combination with the SSD inside the PS5.
It’s interesting to look back at predictions like this one.
