| Kenryoku_Maxis said: Nintendo never makes a system that costs more to make than what they sell it as. And if rumors are to be beleived, their going to make a system 'about the same as an XBOX360. Why would that exceed $300 dollars when MS is selling the XBOX360 for less than that? |
Actually, if rumors are to be believed, it's quite a bit more powerful than the X360. If it's based on the RV740 GPU, like
many suspect, it will have 3 times the Gpixel fill rate. That is not 'about the same as an Xbox 360'. In Gpixel rating, that's a huge jump.
As for CPU, if it's Power6 or Power7 based, it would stomp all over the X360's Xenon CPU. Just comparing core count is pointless. Would you say a Core 2 Quad is just as powerful as a 2600k Sandy Bridge CPU? Both are Intel 4 core CPU's but the latter kicks the snot out of the former.
