I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure Jaguar is nowhere near as powerful today as the Cell was in 2006, or the 360 CPU was in 2005.


The cell was far superior to the tri-core CPU found in the Xbox 360, which was inferior to the Core 2 Duo I compared the Cell against, which was roughly twice as fast as a 2 core bobcat chip, add in the 20% power increase that the new Jaguar architecture gives,  and consider the 6 OTHER cores, both CPU's are clearly superior to last gens and it's not even close. 

I didn't say Cell/Xenon were as strong as Jaguar, I was talking about how  the Cell compared to 2006 cards versus how  Jaguar compares to today's cards.

Ahhhh, my bad lol.

I kinda doubt Sony/MS would choose CPUs weaker than PS3/360's for their next gen consoles, haha. XD


lol yeah, but to answer your question, the Cell proccessor would be an absolute beast by 2006 standards if it were easy to code for, and the tri-core CPU in the 360 wasn't a pushover either compared to high end CPU's at the time.
