Anyone know what actual changes this may make in terms of performance in games, UI and application use?

I don't understand why some people are saying it may make UI slower. Thought an extra core may give it more of a performance boost not the opposite.

Not being funny, just saying I don't understand how it technically works so having someone explain could help me understand it better.


None. The 2 cores was for futureproofing, Sony went over zealous with memory/processing to prevent another PS3 ui debacle. Insiders only claimed it was ever using one core, I'm suprised it took this long honestly. I figured they might be saving it for VR, but it looks like that's not the case.

 

Who? Where?
