Sorry, but Wii U's GPU is nowhere near comparable to a HD 5770, which has similar power as a HD 4870 and is, in fact, more powerful than XOne's GPU as far as GFLOP ratings go. Even in the best case scenario, Wii U would be just as powerful as a HD 4650/HD 5550, surely enough to surpass PS3/360, but no way in the same level as a HD 5770.

You're just wasting perfectly good bytes on him...he has no comprehension about hardware, and that GFLOPS are not the way to compare GPUs, so he would not understand that 7770 is some 30% faster than 5770 although they are rated about the same when it comes to GFLOPS...just as he does not want to  accept that you can't get his self-proclaimed 500-600 GFLOPS out of such a small silicon based on VLIW5 architecture, 550 MHz clock and 40/45nm fab.

His "estimate" that WiiU's GPU is "equal to or above" 5770 just shows how ignorant on this matter he actually is.

I thought 5770 was in the range of 600 gflops, must have confused it for another 5xxx gpu. still doesnt change the fact that the guy insinuated that I said a 5770 would perform in the same level of a 7990.

And I advise you to stop this persecussion on me. If you continue, it won't take long before you make a mistake.
