ok thanks :)



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Do you really think that 1gb will be able to run the OS AND download games and all that? Like I said, Wii U uses 1gb for the OS, and it doesn't nearly do as much as what the PS4 will be able to...

Yeah... the WinXP uses way less RAM than 1GB and do everything... the PS4 OS is to be way more optmized than WinXP... I think the PS3 OS will end using less than 2GB... 1GB is my bet.

The Wii U uses 1GB because the buffer to stream everything to the Pad... not the OS itself.

Anyway the official release specs said '"AMD next-generation Radeon™ based graphics engine"... Can it be GCN2 based? And CPU + GPU in a single-chip... really good.

 


Where did you find these specs? I can't locate it on sony's playstation website.

Thank you.

However, these are missing something. I just remembered taking a note that there would be some other chip that handled specific cases so that the main CPU/GPU were free for games.... dammit now I can't remember what it was the specific separation.

I remember that too in the conference but I can't find anything about in docs.



I found the part... 2:15

 

It's a secondary chip for downloads, uploads, video recording, backgrouund tasks... no specs about this secondary chip.

So the CPU and GPU while playing games is just for gaming lol.
