I read that too but the funny is he said "no phone, nothing" and post everything in the twitter lol lol lol

I just find it funny that all the police had on the warrant supposidely was Ebay item.
AMD unveils new Jaguar CPU. Supposedly PS4/720 will have 2 of these fused together in a custom setup.
Highest end part has a TDP of 25W. That's the Quad-Core version. 2 of those for 8 Cores gives us 50W TDP.
Here is 1 Quad.
There are some modern CPU instructions like AVX.
Jaguar feature out-of-order execution, but also ISA instruction sets found on mainstream CPUs, such as AVX (advanced vector extensions), SIMD instruction sets such as SSSE3, SSE4.1, SSE4.2, and SSE4A, all of which are quite widely adopted by modern media applications.

What is this crazy I'm reading? What does this mean? Any further info, will we find out tomorrow. Maybe we have the wrong idea behind the jaguars we have been expecting.
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

AMD reveals its first 28nm processor
Jaguar is the successor to Bobcat
SAN FRANCISCO: YOU MIGHT AS WELL get used to the codename Jaguar from AMD, if the firm's presentation at the International Solid State Circuits Conference (ISSCC) in San Francisco is anything to go by.
Jaguar is the successor to Bobcat, will be fabbed at 28nm and is meant for mobile devices, as chips employing the Jaguar architecture will consume from below 5W to 25W of power.
The smallest unit in the Jaguar architecture is a Compute Unit, also known as a CU. Each CU consists of four cores, each with a 512KB cache. Bobcat also had a 512KB cache, but it could only be accessed by the local core. In Jaguar the cache is shared between all four cores.
During its presentation AMD did not directly talk about processors with more than four cores, but it hinted at possible future chips with more than one CU, opening the way for six-core and even eight-core chips.
Jaguar has improvements over Bobcat in terms of instructions per cycle (IPC), clock frequency, and power consumption. The load-store unit has been redesigned for significant performance and power improvements over AMD’s previous generation products, and the floating point unit natively supports 128-bit operation, according to the presentation.
The Jaguar core silicon has, according to AMD, demonstrated full functionality at frequencies above 1.85GHz, but might be constrained by system on chip (SoC) power budgets, which in some cases are below 0.5W per core. µ

Orbis/Durango will use two of them in the same die.
@bluefalcon... ooohhh interesting and matches my OP for the chips as well. I like.
Damit... BlueFalcon updated the post lol lol lol.
Thanks.

The Orbis/Nextbox will use a downclocked version... not the high-end... the TDP comes from 5W to 25W depending of the model.
So the Orbis/Nextbox will have a way less than 50W TDP.

The Jaguar is a successor to AMD's Bobcat CPU. It's primarily aimed at tablets and entry-level notebooks. The Quad-Core version of this CPU tops out at 25W in power usage. The "8-core" CPUs inside PS4/720 have been widely rumored to have a custom version of this Jaguar CPU, i.e., 2 of those Quad-Core chips fused together on the same die.
The other alternatives which have been thrown around include a downclocked AMD Bulldozer / Vishera CPU.
What it means in practice is that if Sony/MS want to focus on cutting costs and lower power consumption, they will go with Jaguar AMD APU. If they want to focus on higher end performance in a console, they will go with AMD A8-10 APUs or Bulldozer/Vishera downclocked CPUs. Since the focus on next gen consoles has been hinted at cost cutting of hardware to minimize losses for Sony and MS and increased focus on the graphics / memory sub-system as higher resolution games require exponentially more memory bandwidth, a capital budgeting decision could have been made to sacrifice the CPU performance in exchange for superior GPU performance. This would be a reversal of the strategy behind PS3 but is actually the preferabe method compared to the route PS3 took. If Sony wants to leverage the DirectCompute / Compute shader and GPGPU capabilities of the Graphics Core Next architecture for games, one can see why they might have chosen to go with a 50% more powerful GPU and stick with a rather lower end CPU like the Jaguar 8-core.
Not to worry though as even an 8-core Jaguar should still be an improvement over the Cell / Xbox 360's In-Order CPU architectures.
So AMD leaked this so techs could know what they are looking at tomorrow? How good is this set up?
