Ok, now it hits me... Why would Nintendo use a very unpopular and uncommon memory standard, such as XDR2, instead of just using more GDDR5?

This specs list is false.

PS3 uses XDR. Its fast.

Well, XDR1 was fast back in the day. But that was not my point: While XDR2 is as fast as GDDR5, it's expensive in comparison. And this is Nintendo, so no.

Nintendo always uses strange memory formats.

As for the 32nm GPU, do some research. AMD have been talking for 2 years about making them.

 

Also, in comparison to the 360 or PS3, this is not just "moderately" more powerful.  The 360's GPU is capable of about 300 GFLOPS, the PS3's, about 200. This rumored GPU is put at 1300. I just bought a GTX 460, and it is just barely 1000, so this GPU would be better than that (PS3 is about as good as a 7800, 360's somewhere in the mid 8000 series)

Nope the Radeon HD 6xxx series were gonna be 32nm but TSMC cancelled 32nm to move straight to 22nm. So the 6xxx series are still 40nm.
