None of those links officially say anything. The GPU rumblings are still hearsay and IBM has said they're using the Watson's cpu, which is indeed the Power 7s. But then again Intel said they were putting Pentiums in the original Xbox and we know how that all ended up. Those were just the first two and if it they weren't from endgadget I would have dismissed them right away. What I will dismiss is Wikipedia and IGN.

The Engadget links are official: It doesn't get much more official than confirmation from IBM themselves. And it's pretty common knowledge that the GPU is from the R700 series.
The fact that you choose to dismiss the Wikipedia and IGN links is irrelevant, as they just mirror what is stated in the other links anyway, which is reality.

And "common" knowledge hasn't come out of anyone's mouth, it's all hearsay and rumblings, just like how the Vita was supposed to be using the Tegra.

Nope. Engadget never says hearsay, rumblings or rumors when mentioning the GPU. Neither do several other sites. In fact, Engadget says "simialr to the R770" specifically. Whether or not Nintendo decides to scrap this and go with something else for the final version (which is extremely unlikely) is another story, but as of now a simple Google search will show that it's "common knowledge".
