Minimum system requirements for Far Cry 3 are 4GB of RAM (reminder that both Win7 and Win 8 use less than 512MB of RAM)
Epic, Crytek and Square asked for lot of memory. Crytek specifically asked for minimum of 8GB (and I would bet Epic wants that too, them being one that pushed Microsoft to increase RAM in 360)
As for 8 cores - bulldozers have 8 cores @95W TDP - if they use GPU similar to 7970m (basically mobile downclocked 7870 with TDP of 75-100W) I don't see problem with system's TDP, so why not...

Um this isn't PC ram this console Ram.  Console ram is customized and doesn't need 4 ram because it doesn't have to 3-4 at time while runing the game. PC runs general purpose like ram not like console. Please give me quote were Square/Creak asked for 8gb ram because I know your bsing because that would be completely overshot.

""There's two things: memory and processing power," he said. "We need lots and lots of processing power. The more you can cram into a machine, we'll take advantage of that." While 'more power' is the obvious answer -- both on the CPU and GPU side -- we wondered what wouldn't be 'enough' to work with."

That's them talking up storm as usual like when they were saying back during the (2006-7)ps3 days saying we wish it had more ram. They do this to build hype up for there games to say we are going to max out the ram when they never really do until the end of a generation(2010-12).

"Enix believes the PS4 and Xbox 8 will need as much RAM as possible if they want to match the experience of PCs with ever-evolving hardware. "

This didn't even give a number just a lot which can mean anything.

Like I said 4gb they they ideal for 8gb because if there thinking towards the end of the gen for ps4/xbox720/Wii-U. Which would be true by then it's time go.
