I just bought an HD 6670 low profile card, and I'm not impressed by it at all. Cant even do 1080p with all effects without major slowdown. So someone with more knowledge about pc cards, feel free to correct me, but if these specs hold true, then Wii U won't be too far off and will infact be able to receive ports easily (if not the main console that does the porting, ala PS2). |
Bold: You are correct.
Unbolded: WiiU's GPU crushes the 6670.

Not if the wiiU rumors hold true.
And in regards to the card, you have to consider that dedicated hardware will allow for developers to get the most out of the hardware, instead of generically scaling it. Another note-worthy thing is the assymetrical crossfire that gives the machine a secondary GPU for that ekstra boost.
I still think they should have gone with a cell design though, and I gotta say that I'm not very impressed with, especially the CPU... But with the economy, and sony as a company as is, They probably can't afford to take big risks. This seems like a "safe" machine.

What rumors would that be?

That the wiiU is roughly on par with the ps360 visually ?
It's also worth noting that it's HIGHLY unlikely that the wiiU will have a better GPU than the ps4. I base that on current gen and anything that has been revealed so far, including statements from nintendo, about how they are going to continue in the same direction as the wii took them. - It should be noted that I still rather see a more powerful GPU from sony, but i'm withholding judgement. I am with the WiiU too, But I can't help but form an opinion on both of them based on what I've read and heard :P
