Just looking at the specs of the APU demonstrates that this rumor is 100% BS ...
The A10-5800K (AMD's current top of the line APU) uses 100 Watts of power and is (roughly) 1/3 the processing power of this APU, so either Sony's processor will start fires or the rumor is crap. |
the A10-5800K (3.8 GHz CPU/800MHz GPU) has much more processing power if you include the gpu core, which ofcourse is included in the 100 Watt TDP
at slightly lower frequencies (-400MHz CPU clock/ -40MHz GPU clock) the A10-5700 is a 65Watt TDP chip, so I believe power consumption doesn't scale linear with frequency
|
The HD 7660D (The A10-5800k's GPU) has 384 stream processors running at 800MHz which puts its performance around 300GFLOPS, this rumor is suggesting that Sony's APU has a GPU of 1.9TFLOPS ... It doesn't take much to realize that the rumor is far beyond what is reasonable to expect from an APU

I already edited my post (while you typed yours) and your calculation of the GPU core misses a x2 - each stream processor can do 2 floating point operations per clock (single precision)
