Charles Martinet curiously on IMDB is listed for Galaxy 3 and Sunshine HD.

Well Ruby's added a few things to the mill on the CPU.

NX HC CPU:

✔️ L2 Cache: 2 × 2 MB

✔️ Frequency: 1.9 GHz

✔️ Dual 3 Core Modules.*

In case anyone missed the GPU rumour

AMD HC GPU Specs:

✔️ GPU Clock: 880 MHz

✔️ TMU's: 128

✔️ Stream Processors: 2048

✔️ ROP: 32

✔️ Memory Bus: 384

Finalized.*

Ruby knows her shit.

Pardon my ignorance but who is Ruby?

Someone aiming to feed one bit of information a day from their sources until the reveal, they're not posting on anything else other than twitter as they don't want mass attention and people/sites bandwagoning on their claims.

Their claims are interesting in that they're plausible but aren't saying what the other rumours are yet do match some of the patents and circumstantial information, it's worth noting Ruby mentioned bundles a week or two before the recent retail rumour.

So what exactly does 2 3 core modules mean? Its a six core machine? Is it like how Atari Jaguar was 64 bit because it had 2 32 bit processors?

It basically means the CPU consists of two modules housing 3 execution/processing units or cores (cores just handle programing instructions) as they're often known as, modules are as the name implies they just parts, in CPUs each part would have or be given a specific task or tasks it handles with in the whole system. To give and example one module may handle the task of allocating memory while the other selects the correct textures and assets to be sent through the memory to be accessed.

So would this be more efficient vs the 8 jaguar cores the Xbox One and PS4 use? You know how the talk goes. Moar cores and all that jazz.

Number of cores doesn't really mean something is better much like clock speed doen't mean one CPU is better than another, being more modern it's very likely that the rumoured CPU is already more efficient and better, the CPUs in X1 and PS4 weren't really that good to begin with regardless as the Jaguar family were more used for tablets, mini PCs and mobile.

In the Wii U, I think it had 3 cores but one core does most of the work. The dual-3-core set up, if true, could be something designed to enable ease of backward compatibility. An older 3-core system working with something more modern or mainstream than the Power PC they've been using.
