Yes... depending on how you look at it.

Its 8-core. That's badass.

However, its 1.6GHz... 1/2 the speed of X360.

Its also a "mobile" series of the chip so in relation to other chips AMD will produce, it will be a lower-spec'd APU.

But don't worry, its still ~4x the power of WiiU's CPU and almost ~6x the power of PS360 (if you consider them relatively similar) AND its a far more modern architecture AND you have a TON more RAM that is also 100x faster. So in the end, its a pretty big jump in capability.

clock speed isn't important - architecture is, compare a 3.4ghz Pentium 4 HT to a 2.66ghz Intel i5-750 to see what i mean.

.... aaand I mentioned that in my post. But thank you. My answer of "yes" isnt' in relation to PS360 but to other AMD configurations of this chip.
