PC trolls are just a bunch of wankers that get wet reading the specs sheet of their overpriced garbage. So much that they keep publishing them thinking they are porn. They look as bad as the cases of their ugly machines, with an arm as a keyboard and the other as a mouse.They are the Quasimodo of gaming, the polluted race, the ill maniac obsessed that as soon as a new piece of HW is out they have the compulsory urge to buy it to replace the 2 months old one. Upgrades their hordes buy in high quantities saving the money downloading the games from the torrents.

So, yes, PC trolls have never been so annoying like now that the next gen consoles are coming out. What it is good is that with a simple spell they disappear. The new secret formula is: "8GB of unified GDDR5 RAM". Better if said rotating a PS Move in front of their noses. Poof! They are gone in desperation trying to find out WHY their PCs can't have it.

PC's have been using GDDR5 ram in their GPU's for ages now .

But not as system memory and never up to 8GB in total. Which, since they are clueless about what it really means, they just know how to spell by memory all 17.274 different CPU and GPU model codes in the market, it causes the PC trolls much discomfort.

To me the PC trolls are like those spoiled (and ugly) kids with a lot of expensive toys whom nobody wants to play with, because the others prefer to play football between friends with a cheap plastic ball. Kind of a sad image, to be honest.

I think the same could be said about a lot of trolls . for instance i could easy say Sony/Ms/Nintendo trolls are people who have no lives other then going to forums and trolling other systems more then they even play games on their systems but i wouldnt do that as what would be the point?.

PC doesnt need GDDR5 as system memory as we have it as the most important memory and thats GPU ram where its mostly needed for everything else we have DDR3 ram to go along with our GDDR5 video ram.

So imo 8GB DDR3 system ram+ 3-4GB GDDR5 Video ram more then makes up for 8GB GDDDR3 unified ram in the PS4 since pretty much no PC game even goes past 3GB of system ram i dont even see the point in the Ps4 having 8GB GDDR5 ram unless its going to be used for something other then gaming .


4 Gigs of DDR3 system ram with 4GB of GDDR5 video ram more then makes up for 8GB of GDDR3 unified ram.

DDR3 Ram is generally better for CPU use then GDDR5 is.  (Let alone when DDR4 comes out.)

GDDR5 is just DDR3 ram that's redesigned to work better for GPUs... and is worse for CPUS.

Most likely when they went with GDDR5 in the design Sony had planned to use more GPU Ram with the CPU as a bottleneck.  Developers told them they eneded more CPU ram so they upped to 8GB late in the game, unable to change the design just doubling the slots.

It's the only explination for them not using ANY DDR3 ram, since the GPU is weaker then the Titan, and the Titan only uses 6GB of GDDR5.

It's likely why people think the additional GDDR5 will be used for non GPU reasons though it could of been the GPU just wasn't using maxium ram to begin with.

Using GDDR5 ram in a PC would be jut stupid even if you had an integrated graphics card.
