The eDRAM is transparent like a cache is. So arguing this would mean systems with cache don't have unified ram. And we are talking about a console from 2005, technical aspects changed of course. But yes, it was unified ram. Devs could use it as they wanted. And why do you repeat saying known things about gddr5? We were talking about 360.

 

Just using it as an example to how modern tech designs can be used to virtually eliminate bottlenecks and truly be future-proof, no eDRAM necessary.

Depends on what your decisions are. Saying eDRAM is never necessary is way too much - you always have to consider "system performance" which is more than the sum of the seperate parts. Just because PS4 doesn't use it doesn't mean it isn't necessary. It just seems to be not necessary in PS4.
