Trust me. I am a BSEE. I understand this stuff isn't always black and white. This anandtech article says it pretty well. I think at the end of the day, GDDR5 is the better choice for a gaming centric console, hands down. Microsoft is most certainly aiming for a media hub, and there could be some advantages to DDR3 there. But from a games perspective, its hard to argue against GDDR5 being better, especially AT 1080P http://www.anandtech.com/show/6972/xbox-one-hardware-compared-to-playstation-4/3 Also, 32MB was probably more of a "cheap" spot too in terms of cost. |
I don't believe that is the argument.
I think the argument Microsoft is making is that while Sony has the performance specs, it doesn't necessarily equate to a significant advantage due to the limitations of the choices made.
