One of the few bright spots of the next Xbox.



PS4 has 7GB of GDDR5, doesn't it? How do they compare?



That's a lot, but no wonder it was so instant



Xbox One, PS4 and Switch (+ Many Retro Consoles)

PS4 has 8.

No1 knows how much is accessble to developers though. Most estimates are 1GB - 2GB.

You mean 1-2GB for the OS on the pS4, since the system doesn't run three operating systems

what!?  Most estimates are not that at all!  GG already said they used over 3 for KZ Shadowfall and the OS wouldn't use more than 3.
