| Zappykins said: It's totally exciting - we are in a new era of tech advancing super fast again. IMO, things have been rather stalled the last 6-7 years, as tech was moving to more efficient and less raw power and speed. It's kinda sad in a way new consoles are coming out right at the beginning of this, as in just a few years, things will be 10-100 times more powerful. |
The first card to come out utilizing this will be launched in 2016 at the earliest, and it will probably be reserved for their $500 and above cards only at first. By the time this becomes more mainstream we will be talking about PS5 anyway.
Also just to compare:
X360 ''Xenos'' gpu has a bandwith of 22.8 GB/s. PS4 will, if it's indeed based on HD78xx technology about 153GB/s of bandwith. So that's about 8 times as much. Going from 153GB/s to 1000GB/s would be an increase off about 6.5 times. So no technology advancement is not speeding up.
