No real surprise there, but i still think the should have gone for at least one or two faster core's in the PS4. A six core with two faster cores is much more usable than eight slower cores. |
the PS3 CPU was that powerful cause at one point they weren't even going to put in a dedicated GPU. Everything was just gonna run off the CPU. At the end of the day they put in a half assed GPU that depending on the cpu to do most of the heavy lifting. I think while doing all that sony realized that as far as gaming goes these days, a powerful and versatile GPU is far more relevant and desired than a powerful CPU.
