That I agree with this.

So we can agree that PS4 is about 9x as powerful as the PS3?

Also that explains the CPU situation, I said before how big the jump was, I only said it probably wan't too large considering it's a Laptop CPU in the PS4. So the jump is what 5x (You said the new CPU is comparable to a Quad core-4.0GHz, PS3 had a 3.2Ghz single core). Still my arguement is that the CPU's performance won't make the PS4 more then 9x more powerful, if anything it would bring it down a bit.

Hey, man, if you read my posts, I never once contested anything you said. I'm only trying to explain to CGI-Quality that if the GPU performance is 9x PS3's power. all all the other jumps are 9x or less, then the PS4 is not going to be more 9x as powerful (I was arguing 6-9x because of other slower, but I'm not too computer oriented, so I won't argue 9x). You seem to agree on me with this.

So what's with the negative attitude?

Do you think it's about 9x as powerful, or slightly less? or slightly more?

-Let me just do the bloody math:

-16x the RAM

-The RAM is at least 3x faster

-90nm CPU -> 28nm = 3.2x the room for more transistors (What makes up CPU's)

--90nm GPU -> 28nm = 3.2x the room for more transistors (What makes up GPU's Core)

-8 cores instead of 6 (Useable for gaming).

-The PS4 CPU has 8 full cores instead of 1 core + 5 SPE's.

-The CPU speed will probably be at around 1.8 GHz instead of 3.2 GHz

 

So how you put a total number on that is beyond me, but look at it this way:

-The PS4's GPU can calculate 2176 GFLOPS to the PS3's 176.  That is 12.4x the power alone!

With everything else, it is very fair to say the PS4 is AT LEAST 10-15 times stronger than the PS3.

 

Now just accept it!  Otherwise I can break down how the Wii U is no stronger than the PS3...
