"the ps4 and xbone should stay longer than 5-6 years? pls no! they are allready to weak..."

No their not. They are pretty powerfull even compaired to most avg pc's.
Also theres more room for growth via software codeing squeeseing out more performance
(currently still stuff left on the table).


hUMA/HSA, is the secret sauce that isnt being used currently that could speed things up abit more.


"There’s one other thing to keep in mind when it comes to considering the benefits of HSA for gaming. Ever since the dawn of 3D acceleration, gaming has been a combined effort between the CPU and GPU. Game developers have a great deal of experience when it comes to minimizing latency and the impact of CPU-GPU data sharing on conventional architectures, which means taking advantage of HSA to deliver improvements on the standard way of doing things is going to take time.

With multiple studios rushing to finish games, it’s unlikely that HSA/hUMA will serve as the distinguishing technological features on display come launch day." Quote from http://www.extremetech.com/gaming/164557-ps4-will-use-its-unified-architecture-to-pound-xbox-one-into-the-dust-eventually


I personally hope the PS4 & Xbox1 hold on for a decently long time. With game support for the 10years or so they said they would.

 

 

GPGPU wise:

Look at cloth simulations run on the CPU vs running them via GPGPU:

Theres plent of things in games you can off load from the CPU onto the GPU, and get really high speed ups.
