Being Ubisoft, I wouldn't by that trick (but on medium or high, not ultra settings). After all, the min. CPU is miles better than what's inside in those consoles and the min. GPU is almost 50% more powerful too.

A 7970 is actually 100%+ more powerful than the GPU in the PS4, 1.8TF vs 3.7TF.

We all know that TeraFlops don't translate well into fps.

With that said, not even your above graphs show the 7970 being twice as fast as a 7870 and I actually compared an HD7870 (which I know is more powerful than what the PS4 has) with a GTX680 at Anand's bench:

A 7870 is 2.5TF a 7790 at 1.792 is the closest match for the PS4

As you can see roughly double the performance from a 680, and more in some cases.

And vs the 7970 same thing roughly double except when it hits another bottleneck.

In terms of specs, the GPU on the PS4 is somewhere between an HD 7850 and a 7870, but of course with lower clocks so it is harder to compare, but with the ability that consoles give to optimize, I would even put it slightly ahead of the 7870, maybe even 7950 in some cases.

The X1 GPU is the one closer to a 7790, but again it will punch much higher than what its specs say.

Still, a 7970 or a 680 are much, much faster chips that should be more than enough to handle this game, if coded properly. But again, the first thing PC gamers will do it set the res to 1080p so it's not a fair comparison, is it?
