$1000 Intel Core i7 965XE's inter-core bandwidth = 40,003MB/s (basically 40GB/s)...TOTAL bandwidth (cache+memory+inter-core) = 106,176MB/s (basically 106GB/s)

$400 PS3's Cell inter-core (EiB) bandwidth = 197GB/s (proven)


If that is true, my friend will be pissed. He spent 2000+ dollars on an uber gaming rig. He thinks he will be able to play PS3 emulators as soon as they pop up in a few years lol.

 

The Cell is a good processor.

However, the console is bottlenecked by every other component.

Duh.(couldn't help it)



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.
