"The Wii U is a custom 45nm #power7 chip. Same SOI design in #ibmwatson"

I think that tweet confirms beyond a doubt that Wii U is NOT a broadway based CPU in any form. Its clearly a Power7 CPU and therefore more powerful than PS360 in any configuration.

I'm not that technical, so I don't really know what this means... what will this mean for WiiU?

It simply means that the rumor that said WiiU was using a Broadway enhanced CPU was BS.

Oh, I get THAT ;) But what will it mean for WiiU's graphical ability? Is that something we can guess at now?

Oh, that.

I'm not sure it will have any impact on the graphics of the console, that's what the GPU is for, but at least it won't be a bottleneck unless they have clocked it at a ridiculously low speed.

We'll have to wait for Viper1 or someone with more knowledge about this things to know more.
