This article is BS like all other spec leaks articles, but if Sony was to implement an A10 APU and 720 has an 8770, 720 would mop the floor with PS4 in terms of graphics. PS4 would be cheaper though.

PS4 has a dedicated GPU on top of the APU.

I see. That makes even less sense...

Sony could make a call to Intel or IBM who would in 15 minutes provide them with a CPU more powerful, with lower TDP, for less money than the A10 or a variant of that architecture. A10 has a benefit of having an GPU but if they are adding a second GPU on top, it makes absolutely no sense to use an APU.

Prices below I used are purely OEM speculative and slightly less than current retail but:

A10 APU ($100) + 6670 GPU (50$) in crossfire would get owned by an Intel G860 (50$) + dedicated 7770/8770 ($100)
