I doubt it's only clocked at 2.9 GHz. Even the Cell processor is clocked at 3.2GHz and from my understanding the 3850 APU is relatively easy to overclock. I reckon a 3.2GHz APU minimum with Sony's own custom cooling solution.

I also doubt they're using a 3850 based chip. The CPU architecture in that chip is anchient. If they go the APU route they'll probably be looking at Trinity based APUs which are based on Piledriver (2nd gen Bulldozer/FX chips with a 7 series GPU). Would make more sense having two 7 series GPUs in the same console in crossfire too.

I suspect we'll see 1-2 Gb of total RAM. 2Gb should really be the minimum imo.
