Tahiti is the 7950 and 7970 GPU, not 78xx series. Thus this rumor is debunked, Sony won't put a $500 GPU in their console, and especially with only 2GB of UNIFIED RAM for the WHOLE system - those GPU's themselves have 3GB of VRAM just to feed them

Complete nonsense. A 7850 graphics card with 2G GDDR5 ram is under $250 shop price _now_. By end of this year, chip yields will be considerable higher, so a console version of a 7850 card with 1G of GDDR5 (enough for 1080p) would be considerably less than $100 to manufacture.

Its NOT THE 7850. Tahiti is the 79xx cards!

Guess what, 2GB of unified RAM is fake. It would be a waste of time putting a GPU with 128 texture units it when there isn't even enough RAM to feed the texture units and 2048 shaders, let alone that AND a freakin quad core CPU.
