A very, very nice tech uplift and should be a good pointer for the new PS too.
The only way to give RT the real kickstart it deserves (i.e. proper developer time) is to get it onto consoles.

Very nice indeed, and considering what it costs for just a rtx card alone, if they can sell this for the £499 mark then it looks like i will be upgrading my XBX on day one for a X series.....love that cooling setup, very impressive looking.

It's a beast no doubt, Microsoft isn't messin around. What I'm interested in most is to see how much, and how well ray tracing is utilized.

It's and impressive console just like the Xbox one X, my issue being if it's like the xbox one(s/x) what is the point of it. There were so few exclusive games even if you just count the pc/xbox exclusives. Unless you really like Halo, which last generation a one Halo game, which wasn't that well recieved or Gears of war which 4 was meh, 5 was a lot better. It's hard to get behind this an be like yeah! At least for me, though I am sure the PC community due to nearly all the games coming out on PC don't have many reasons to look at this.
But even taking away my PC, I can't see myself buying a console for maybe 1 halo game and 1 gears game maybe 2. When they don't seem to have these big exclusives coming out like Sony has the past decade or so now. My personal take anyway.
Hardware is great, best in the console world. Wondering where the software is to truely back this up.
That or more effort into the backwards games, with more enchanced, only 69 right now currently have this (which is great don't get me wrong but if they got no big first parties coming out why not have more effort on that front?)

Now they only need to disclose the price of the console.

Think I’m probably going to continue with what I did this gen after selling my Xbox One X, just have a PlayStation for the exclusives and a PC for everything else.

Hooray for having a 3700x/32gb/2070 Super, I won't have to upgrade my system to run games for many years now, since the console is using pretty much the same stuff (except AMD GPU).
I would have bought a GPU from AMD also but my last one was awful as per drivers go. I couldn't do my production work any more on the system because of it and dual-screen support was a lagging mess when it even worked at all. Good riddance. I booked from the AMD GPU scene about a month before the [expletive] hit the fan about their drivers. Good thing they got on it some, though.
Hopefully consoles won't have any AMD driver issues (I would hope not!).
To that end I never had stability issues on my Ryzen x570 setup here outside of the Rx 480 8gb GPU drivers. Everything else has been golden, and not one hiccup since adding in the 2070 Super for too much money.
Can't wait for some games that really leverage this 8-core (a select few do now, but it's not many and more the exception rather than the rule), to give us the interactive open worlds we want in future titles.
