One next-gen console to have AMD CPU and Graphics

Ugh Why? AMD has absolutely lost the good battle, especially in the GPU department

What? AMD is behind in GPUs by about 0-10% depending on game, and only since early January (previously they had the lead since mid-year). Their chip is much cheaper to manufacture too so they're making more profit per GPU than Nvidia. And AMD will launch their 40nm high-end ahead of Nvidia by 3-6m, because Nvidia screwed up their 55nm and now 40nm GT200 shrinks.

CPUs, maybe. Console CPUs aren't high-end for a PC, but they need to be cheap and cool which is what AMD is very good at. Anything below $250 and AMD is the best option.

 

   When you sent the link you linked to one of the few game tests on which ATI was competitive, on the next one, dead space, ATI got blown away (half the frame rate of the high end Nvidia cards) and overall only won in one category, guess what one ATI won in.

 

  That's right, heat generation running at over 90 degrees Celsius when engaged and using way more power both active and idle then comperable Nvidia cards.  Not like any console makers have had trouble with cheap GPUs that produce excessive heat am I right?

 

   I hope its not Nintendo (I'm 99% sure its not Sony since they already have the cell going for them) since I want to see the new Nintendo system do well especially if they finally make it HD so I can rebuy it.
