The PS5 has a digital-only option as well.

Also important to note is that the Xbox Series S system is consistently in stock at various retailers, while the same cannot be said about the Series X and PS5. Still, it offers the same functionality as the Series X minus a disc drive and some horsepower. At $299, the console isn’t nearly as powerful as its more expensive sibling, targeting 1440p gaming rather than 4K. There’s a less expensive console in Microsoft’s lineup, though: Xbox Series S. We also know it supports features like a variable refresh rate, Variable Rate Shading technology, and a low-latency mode so you can get better responses out of your games. The Xbox One X uses 12GB of GDDR5 RAM, and even a small boost to this would likely be sufficient for future games. The Xbox Series X features 12 TFLOPS of power and up to eight times more graphical performance than the Xbox One and twice as much as the Xbox One X. The PS5 also comes with a 4K Blu-ray player, placing it in line with the Xbox One S and Xbox One X, and the discs have a capacity of 100GB - double that of the previous generation. This information comes from an interview that Lead System Architect Mark Cerny had with WIRED, and we later learned the GPU runs at 10.28 TFLOPS with 2.23GHz, putting it in relative competition with the Xbox Series X GPU. The PS5’s GPU is also from AMD, based on the Radeon Navi line, and it supports the resource-intensive process known as ray tracing. Its CPU is, on paper, slightly less powerful than the Xbox Series X CPU. This CPU uses 7nm Zen 2 microarchitecture.

This includes an eight-core CPU running on a modified version of the Ryzen line. On the PS5 side, the console uses AMD chips across the board.
