CPU
I'm not a tech guy.
RAM
Both the Xbox 360 and PS3 have 512 MB of RAM while the PS4 and Xbox One are identical at 8 GB of RAM. The PS4 and Xbox One are 1,600% more advanced than their predecessors in this category.
Cores
The PS3 has 9 cores and the Xbox 360 has 3 cores. Both the Xbox One and PS4 have 8 cores which mean the PS4 has been downgraded by -12% and the Xbox One has been upgraded by 266%.
Wi-Fi
Xbox Systems have improved and better Wi-Fi than PS systems.
Controllers
The PS3 can handle 7 people playing; the PS4 can handle only 4. That is a -43% decline in the number of players. The Xbox One can handle 8 players at a time while the Xbox 360 can only handle 4 players. That is an increase of 100%
Overall
I know this is cloudy but I’d say that the PS4 is about 16.88 times as powerful as the PS3 and the Xbox One is about 19.58 times as powerful as the Xbox 360. HOWEVER about 10% of the Xbox One’s power is used on Kinect making game performance only 17.622 times as powerful. As you can see, with the upgraded CPU, the Xbox One is more powerful than the PS4. That is why the Xbox One cost more money (besides the fact it comes with a camera).

but you're saying that the Xbox and ps4 both have the same increase in RAM but no difference between DDR3 and DDR5 memory? Never mind you said you aren't a tech guy.
Also did you just add up the extra %s and total how much better one system was based on that? so the xbox gains 266% from the number of cores and a further 100% from doubleing the number of controllers connectable? Just wondering?
Btw I left wi fi in there because the Xbox360 all the way til the slim model didn't have Wi Fi without buying an adaptor, so you can say the X1 has infinate% more wi fi than the previous generation, that should really fluff out your end calculations too.

I took the percentages and added/subtracted them. For instance if xbox one had twice as powerful cpu as the 360 and three times as powerful gpu I would say that xbox one is 5 times as powerful as the 360. I did not factor in controllers/wifi etc. Only pure strength. I even subtracted the 10% used for kinect. The only thing I didn't factor in is the GPUs of each console which would make ps4 about just as big as an upgrade as the Xbox One. They're almost completely equal.

ah okie, so the number of cores on the CPU die didn't come into the end result so? Because that is one that would be hard to put that big a value on going from a tri core system to the Jaguar in the X1. imo!
