I have 2080 super, which is probably a bit behind the 3070 and it pretty heavily out performs my ps5.
on what games you have compared to? how do you get that conclusion?
Control. Runs better, looks better on pc, compared to ps5.
Baldurs Gate 3. Main thing I've noticed, which may be a CPU issue is there's a longer pause on the Ai's turn on the ps5 sometimes. I have a 5900x on the PC, and playing in normal, whereas I'm playing tactician on PS5. So maybe the harder difficulty requires the CPU to think longer, or my cpu is just significantly better than the one in the ps5.
Edit. Pretty sure I was using the ryzen 3600 for control. 30fps with ray tracing on PS5, and while not a solid locked 60 on pc it was pretty close. Control is why I want Alan Wake 2 on pc, but I refuse to buy from epic.
Looking online, the 5700xt or 2070 are the closest match to the ps5.
BG3 is a CPU issue because of how the game was made.(mentioned in DF's video)
Control however is a build issue where developed features for RTX/DLSS are not available on PS5 due to hardware and API limitation.(thanks to Nvidia). It's not really a good comparison unless you run without those and pick the same texture resolution/render upscale etc. Then compare your frame time/fps to claim 2080 super with your rig outperforms PS5. Remember, when we say "out perform", we need to compare with as close possible work load and then see which one finished faster. Not which one looks nicer with all the knobs tweaking.
Ps5 does have other stuff like checkerboard and dynamic resolution available though. Fact remains, control was almost a locked 60fps on pc, and locked at 30 with less impressive visuals on PS5. And I would bet it'll be same for Alan. In that I could get better framerate while also having better visuals on my pc than which I would get on the ps5.
I went to look up spec data, PS5 10.29 TFLOPS, 2800 Super, 11.15 TFLOPs. So by spec number 2080 Super is slightly better than PS5's GPU. But for Control like DF mentioned RTX/DLSS gives pretty big advantage for fidelity.
