the thing is 40-50% (1.5 times as powerful) isn't really that big of a difference in how it looks. It's the difference between 30 and 42-45 FPS. Going from 4x AA MSAA to 8x MSAA can drop it that much itself.

That's if third parties try to fully optimize both systems and don't just say that the more powerful system is good enough while optimizing the lesser more.

In reality it's a lot more complicated. And imo he's spinning it in his favor.


You mean .4-.5 times more powerful (40-50%)

What you said is the exact same thing. Except you switched "times as" with "more" which implies addition to the original value, while "times as" implies multiplication by a factor of the original value.

.4 times a number is smaller number. 1 times a number is the same. 1.4 times a number is a bigger. Learn factors

you're right. I didn't read correctly the first time.

I still think people never mention the 15 coprocessors in the X1.  To me they are very close and that 40%-50% difference is a mistake.
