PS4 & Xbone APUs Die Photos

If only MS had enabled those two redundant CU's (as they were in discussions to do nearly until launch). They then would have had over 1.5 teraflops, and with more CPU speed and peak bandwidth too boot. At best PS4 might have been able to wrangle a tie in performance (although the PS4's ROP edge might be big).

So MS easily could have had more power than PS4, the same size APU, AND a much cheaper DDR3. Great engineering.

Your hypothetical situation is great engineering, or it is presently?

Why didnt they enable the CU's?
