Eww. Do you guys know that Intel is threatening to surpass the PS3s GPU with their IGP next year?

A little late for this article isn't it?  Oh one thing I have to say though, from everything I have read, the 360 has a better way to use its Ram so isn't it actually better?  I thought that was one of the PS3's main problems.

Either way both systems are old and outdated by now.  And we still get to use them for 5 more years!  So by the time they are dead, there should be some nice improvements on all sides.

This.

HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! Were it an AMD/ATI IGP, I could believe it, but each time Intel announces it finally managed to make a fast IGP, shortly after mankind is introduced to a new definition of slowness!!!   

Back in 2006 now are we?

This was already discussed over and over again, PS3 wins hardware? duh.......

Urgh. Amateur IGN head to heads...

Their latest mainstream one is about as fast as the ATI HD 5450 and they have a part coming which is twice as fast as the one which was tested at Anandtech. So its not that much of a stretch if you consider their 22nm 2011 tick model. Unfortunately, it seems they might actually be right this time.

Wow...I go out for a night out and this ebcomes a serious discussion thread.

Nice going Squil...you with your facts...and knowledge.

The latest I saw charted was still two steps (in Tom's HW hierarchy chart) below even my HD3300, that's not exactly new, I bought it during Q1 2009, but it was released in H2 2008.

Still an improvement, though, in the past it took ages to Intel to even reach an integrated Radeon Xpress 1150 or the glorious old discrete entry level GPU 9200.

what really matters is that the PS3 has better software, actually.
