Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Wii U hacked and CPU clock speed revealed, apparently.

What I find more interesting than the (even more disappointing than I thought) numbers, is the thing has apparently been hacked already.

 

Taking a console apart and measuring the hardware does not equal that its security has been hacked. Hold your horses there.

To know these numbers they had to take the part off of the Wii U and connect it to a PC. Also, lets not forget that this isnt exactly the most trustworthy source.

That can mean any number of things though. I'd need more details on what he can and can't do with the system. Vita hacks came out pretty early, too, but they were still limited in scope.



Have some time to kill? Read my shitty games blog. http://www.pixlbit.com/blogs/586/gigantor21

:D

You need more than just clock speed to determine how powerful something is, though.



4 ≈ One

They gimped the chipset in order to get that small casing and low power draw. So I hope people who live in Hobbit holes, and are eco concerned are happy.

But in this case, you can see that it can't be very powerful, with the power consumption it has, and the silicon real estate it uses. The CPU is tiny in comparison with any other CPU, it has three cores with the same size than one ARM A9 core at the same process.

Welcome to the current gen, Nintendo. =)



And they still sell them at a loss. That controller must be really expensive to manufacture, let's hope they get the cost down quickly.
