| phinch1 said: A few PC owners have been saying that current gen consoles such as ps4 and xbone are already outdated or will be more out dated by the end of this gen just by judging it on the specs, consoles specs should not be compared with pc specs, how many pc rigs can run games like the last of us with 512mb of RAM? infact what would a current game look like running on 512mb of ram on a pc?? |
Well, let's see, if I recall correctly - Skyrim (what I'd imagine to be a game that uses a lot of ram) at max settings 1080p uses about 800 mb - 1.5 gb of my ram. Notice that the console versions are sub-HD (nowhere near 1080p), do not have high quality texture and shader mods, and have very small draw-distances. If I ran Skyrim at <720P at low-medium quality settings, no mods, etc, etc, I'm sure it would use somewhere close to 512mb, without any " closed-platform optimization" necessary.
