captain carot said: As for Espresso, it likely isnt a 970. Its as well no stock 750 PPC. THere where already changes made for Gekko, like some SIMD, FPU... |
I go with marcan in this context as he is quite a knowledgable guy when it comes to Wii/WiiU hardware and many things we know about the Espresso is coming from him and his findings. In general it's of course not a stock 750 but derived from it and I guess if he says it's 750 we can likely believe him in this context.
Edit: Concerning the ISA I found this: http://www.radgametools.com/bnkhist.htm
"Added Wii-U support for Bink 2 - play 30 Hz 1080p or 60 Hz 720p video! We didn't think this would be possible - the little non-SIMD CPU that could!" I didn't know it doesn't feature SIMD...
