But can DDR4 beat GDDR5 ? I don't know about you but we need GDDR6 to rape the PS4 and xbone.


Hmmm, your 2 year assement might be right in that case since it'd take a little for manufacturers to cap out DDR4 speeds at a reasonable price and for GDDR6 prices to come down more.

Plus doesn't DDR from desktop space also have a smaller bus width compared to a bigger bus width the x1 has ?


They work differently so I'm not sure you can compare them the same way, the system RAM on PC HAS to go through the CPU in traditional computing, the only exception so far is AMD's hUMA and the X1/PS4 are taking advantage of it and utilizing them in different ways, so I'm not sure if we can even compare them this way.
