Just a few minutes ago, I wrote a lengthy post explaining some of the wrong assumptions you make. Pretty much every other point you made in your post is also false. If you want to learn why the gddr5 memory in the PS4 produces LESS heat than the ddr3/esram, and why designing a mb with gddr5 ram is easier (and hence probably cheaper) than one with ddr3, I suggest you download the data sheets from hynix/samsung and read through them. I don't hink I should waste my time writing another article explainig it to you because you seem to simply ignore what people write if it doesn't repeat what you _think_ you know (and yes, I am right and you are wrong) |
Same reply as ethomaz:

"There are merits to both approaches. Sony has the most present-day-GPU-centric approach to its memory subsystem: give the GPU a wide and fast GDDR5 interface and call it a day. It’s well understood and simple to manage. The downsides? High speed GDDR5 isn’t the most power efficient, and Sony is now married to a more costly memory technology for the life of the PlayStation 4."
Feel free to post some more personal opinions and theories though.
