Ah, yes, ok, I see how you did that.  Yes, the extra audio chip isn't that powerful in the PS4.

I'm a little bewildered as to why they would use the GPU like that.  I'm trying to keep an open mind about it.  But it seems a bit like using miata to move pianos.  Miatas are great little fun sporty cars.  Good mileage, reliability,  but would be mismatched for moving pianos.

Any idea what some of the 'mystery' chips in the Xbox One are for?

Please, oh please, ignore him before you get dragged into fantasy land, audio processing does NOT take that much resource from the GPU due to the nature of parallel processing. You'd have to be on crack to think that CPU and GPU are equal on the same tasks to start with since they are good at different things.

This Fantasy Land?  Do you realize I am going off of Sony's information?  So Sony and Mark Cerney are now Fantasy Land?

It has an extra chip for audio, but also they are promoting 4 CU's for audio.  The way the PS4 is designed is to use 14 CU's for graphics, but it has 4 more.  So they have some flexibilty to use it for other things.
