It won't happen cause 12 GB would have to be triple channel memory on 256-bit bus.

No it doesn't.
For example with a PC you can run a 2Gb stick of Ram and a 4Gb stick of Ram in tandem for a total of 6Gb, it's still Dual-Channel, of course you do have a minor performance penalty once you exceed 4gb as information isn't being accessed in tandem from both modules.


So, they will lose RAM bandwidth and also creating a bottleneck in the system by doing 12GB upgrade. I think this is not going to happen and if they do then it will create more problems in the system with some bottlenecks since they did not design system with 12GB in mind so this will lead some bottlenecks which can give more problems over minor advantage they get by increasing RAM.



GAMING is not about spending hours to pass/waste our time just for fun,

its a Feeling/Experience about a VIRTUAL WORLD we can never be in real, and realizing some of our dreams (also creating new ones).

So, Feel Emotions, Experience Adventure/Action, Challenge Game, Solve puzzles and Have fun.

PlayStation is about all-round "New experiences" using new IP's to provide great diversity for everyone.

Xbox is always about Online and Shooting.

Nintendo is always about Fun games and milking IP's.
