The fluidity of the graphics – counterintuitively – does not only affect the image. The last two generations of consoles did not impress with the smoothness of the generated image. Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 very often spit graphics at a level below 20 fps with great difficulty. Current consoles at least stick to a constant 30 fps, but still rarely reach the considered optimal 60 fps. This problem is due to the relatively slow CPUs (main processors) of these devices. In recent years, Sony and Microsoft have focused mainly on increasing the power of console graphics systems, saving costs (both in economic and energy terms) on the processor. We have had the opportunity to see the effects in recent years. Fortunately, both next-generation consoles will be equipped with efficient systems with Zen 2 architecture, reducing the aforementioned bottleneck ....
