Jaguar of course... R10 if you mean HD 7xxx but I think Sony will use a customized HD 8xxx (anyway there is no much difference in performance between HD 7xxx and HD 8xxx... or is there?). Now I hope Sony change the memory size... 6GB is better than 4GB... or 8GB will be amazing... 4GB is just fine. |
Sea Islands it's self is a slightly modified version of Southern Islands. Whatever custom chip that AMD have cooked up for Sony bassed on VLIW5 will likely incorperate some of the same improvements they were working on for Sea Islands. I would imagine anyway. If they go for unified GDDR5 there is no way they could go past 4GB, I mean 4GB GDDR5 is already 16 chips, unless they are really going for 3D stacking that is already pushing the limit. GDDR5 is half the density of DDR3 and costs more per chip if I'm not mistaken as well.
