Rumor - Microsoft may increase RAM to 12 GB and GPU clock increase to Xbox One

That is a good question, but it would be 9gb DDR3 vs 7gb GDDR5, the PS4 still needs the 1reserved.

they would both have their own benefits i would imagine.  I guess alot depends on just what they can do with the ESRAM

It really depends on the usage scenario.

If for example you weren't approaching the 7Gb memory limit, then the 7Gb of faster memory would be preffered.
However, if you are hitting the 7Gb limit and need to start sacrificing parts of the game in order to fit into that memory footprint, then more memory would be preferred over faster memory.

Obviously a mix of Fast+Large memory is always welcome over either scenario.

I would have liked for more and faster Ram thrown into both consoles, but I'm still interested to see how the current memory amounts on the consoles will translate over to console ports on the PC.
