BlueFalcon said: What makes things even more complicated is that Xbox 720 might use PowerPC CPU and PS4 might use x86 CPU. Even if we know the GPU comparison, it'll become very difficult to compare the CPUs. Then there is eDRAM which complicates matters as it can be used reduce the performance hit a GPU incurs when accelerating anti-aliasing, somewhat making up for lost memory bandwidth. And there is always a possibility PS4/Xbox 720 could use some truly innovative technologies to reduce latencies like die stacking (http://semiaccurate.com/2012/09/06/die-stacking-has-promise-and-problems/). But let's not even go there :) |
Thanks for all the info but I think a lot of users here came to similar conclusions. Any comparisons based on only a limited number of specs are going to be bias and only show a fragment of the overall story.
Btw, I'm bookmarking your post, lots of useful info there
