i dont know why a few people are speculating the CPU will be an 8 core, unless the console is going to have some fairly powerful video editing or 3d modeling software an 8 core CPU is a waste of time and resources, look again at PC hardware especially gaming PC's, they dont require 8 core CPU's to run the latest games as most game's dont even make use of quad core CPU's its the GPU that is the main focus point, last gen consoles were very limited in terms of dedicated video ram 'VRAM' current mid/top end PC graphics memory uses GDDR5 while system memory uses DDR3, the 360 had unified RAM with just 10mb of dedicated VRAM as the system RAM is being shared by the system its not as quick as dedicated VRAM.
im sure some one who knows what im trying to say can say it in a way that makes it clear to those that are unfamiliar with PC hardware.
