actually should be clear that the esram has more bandwidth and is fatsre, the problem is that is more difficult to code and requires more thinking on how to use it to take adventage of it, read mark cenrys quote please

 

gddr5 adventage is that is easier to code, the bandwidth is good but there is still problem with the high latency and the fact that is not located near any component, buit still since is easier to code for is more likely developers will have no problem building good grapic games compared to the difficultty that esram would represent for that


32 MB, doesn't matter how fast it is, it is another call stack code as to run through. any speed advanateg is off set but that alone and having to code for it... Even with 32 B of esram x1 still has less memory bandwidth. ESRAM does NOT have more bandwidth, it gives x1  alittle more then DDR3 but still does not match unified GDDR5.

Again, experts say unified GDDR5 is better. There are numerous tech analysis of each system that details why PS4 is considerably more powerfull. You simply cannoy add the GB/S of esram to the overal memory bandwidth, it doesn't work like that. Everything you daid here is FUD,.

 

GDDR5 in the PS4 is right next to the APU unified architecture components, stop speading BS., not would that make any differene LMAO.

Again, this does nothing to offset the biggest advantage.......The gpu. No amount of esram will help the GPU.


i am not saying gddr5 is not better option, quite the contrary, but i am also pointing out the adventages of the esram and its weaknesses

gddr5 is more convinient since is easier to code for, esram may have more bandwidth, faster access, no refreshness and almost no latency but still more difficult to take profit for

that all what i a saying,  but, you should be aware that games that really squeeze the esra capabilities can deliver great graphics, i do not want to tell how it will now since i want to talk about this for the wii u first so will leave it for later
