| HoloDust said: Hm, if I'm not terribly mistaken, isn't full Cell (with all 8 SPEs) rated at only 230 GFLOPS single-precision (which gives PS3's Cell with one 7 SPEs even less performance)? Compare that to estimation of rumoured A10-5700 + 7670 combo for PS4 which gives 1350 GFLOPS just from GPU elements, and I think you'll have your answer which path is better for next-gen. And just for fun, let's compare it to 7970 with 4000+ GFLOPS of single-presicion.... ;) |
Cell CPUs were fundamentally designed to work in parallel with one another, it's a case of one plus one yielding exponentially greater than two.
