It's good but its not mindblowingly good as people are talking about it here. In the end of the day it is just ram. The graphics card and its shaders are what makes games look pretty.

you can have the best gpu in the world but it would be useless with out plenty of fast ram, they go hand in hand.

Exactly. You can have the fastest, top of line ram in the world but that would all be useless with a crappy GPU. From the looks of it the GPU of the ps4 will be equivalent to maybe the 7850-7950. No reason to get excited for that amount of ram or speed since the GPU will be the bottleneck. 

 

Im not an expert but it seems to me that Sony will be unneccessarily increasing the cost of the console with that type of ram with not much return on performance.
