DDR5 / DDR6

[Guest2]

I was under the impression that DDR4 is the current / new standard in PCs and DDR5 is coming next year or 2022.

However I never noticed that the PS5 and Xbox series X consoles are shipping with DDR6.
PS5 16GB GDDR6/256-bit, Xbox-X 10 GB GDDR6.

Is this the RAM or GPU memory. Are consoles ahead of PC components for the first time ever?

OK, so it's 16GB pooled system RAM and the GPU uses what it needs from this.
But still 16GB of GDDR6 memory from what im seeing online everywhere (not GDDR5)
