I know I mean technically the PS3 can output 4k images via the photo viewer. But we will see few 4k native games as I said but must will be 1080p or less IMO, 4K will likely be to next gen much like what true 1080p was to this gen. Most developers would choose StarWars 1313 in 1080p than games that look like current gen at 4k even if they had the power of a GTX680 which they won't as it has a TDP of 195W by it's self. I'm sure the next 2D Rayman will blow minds at 4K.

I agree... some games.

For the GPU I expect a new generation from AMD (GNC2) with power near the GTX 680... the GTX 680 have 3 TFLOPS power... I can see a HD 8850 with the same 3 TFLOPS power and 130W TDP *(that's what the rumors says)... a custom HD 8850 for consoles can have even a better power consumption.

130W for the GPU fits with the full system over 200W.

The same about nVidia... I expect a GTX 770 have the same power than the GTX 680 with less power consumption.

What I have heard is an increase of ~15% with the next gen GPU performance at the top end, which is pretty good for no die shrink and the same architecture but it's not going to be that big a difference. The "leaked" chart smells far too much like bullshit. 

Keep in mind Nvidia flops and AMD flops are not the same thing and doesn't mean a whole lot in terms of actual game performance. The HD7970 GHz Ed is a 4TFlop GPU but the 3TFlop GTX680 still beats it in many games. And 3Tflop GCN is closer to the 7950 which has a TDP of 200 BTW so even if 15% improvement in effeciency is true (that 15% improvement in performance could be including a higher TDP considering it's on the same proccess and architecture) is looking at a TDP of ~170+ for a GCN2 3TFlop GPU.

A 3Tflop GCN2 GPU does not equal a GTX680 at all. And bassed on the infor that is floating arround 2.5TFlop is probably more realistic, that is still 10x the X360 GPU in Flops for what it's worth (very little).
