From GAF...
I think the most interesting "new" part in this are the Extras, but there isn't really a lot of information there. However: - Audio Processor (ACP) Should take some signal processing load off the CPU, which is good considering its relative weakness at that task compared to Cell. - Video encode and decode (VCE/UVD) units Really interesting if we could get across-the-board support for low-latency streaming to Vita. - Display ScanOut Engine (DCE) I guess this time around the Sony console won't have a disadvantage in scaling. - Zlib Decompression Hardware Certainly interesting for loading and streaming. |
This + extra 2 CU's are the special sauce.
