lol im not a tech person so i have no idea what that means :P. im mainly seeing this because i thought they ment that we are going to have uncharted 2 like graphics on a handheld :P

im sorry :(


I appologize too...that makes sense and I forget not everyone looks in to the specs being discussed with detail.

From a technical point, this really isn't all that far fetched...for a portable GPU to match the PS3 GPU.

If Microsoft did one thing right, its have  the "Xenos" GPU as 360s GPU. It is really not comparable to any desktop video card as it has 48 unified shaders, tessellation support, and has 10MB of integrated eDRAM. Its almost a generation ahead of the PS3's video card... "RSX" which is quite literally a 7900GT clocked to 550MHz with only 8 ROPs.

While it would sound as if the PS3 would be at a disadvantage graphically, this is not the case when used correctly as the Cell is very capable of taking on rendering tasks as well, almost like a second GPU. The Cell is a beast...and this mobile GPU alone can not compete with the PS3 visuals at all thanks to the Cell.
