| superchunk said: He's definitely not getting 8GB... It'll be 2GB to 4GB max of shared RAM in some form. Look what they have now... 512MB and they make games that have recommended specs of 4GB on PCs. Just quadrupling it to 2GB total RAM will allow 1080p visuals easily on a dedicated gaming console. |

PC memory increased 16 times from 2005 to 2013. It would suck if X720 and PS4 only increased their capacity 4-8 times when RAM is much more affordable than it was in 2005-2006.
I need 8GB in the PS4.
