Son..same way the GPU is stronger in the 360...the Sony's Cell processor is FAR stronger than the 360's processor fam...most people who review both systems and weigh the pros and cons they almost ALWAYS come out dead even... and then it all boils down to the games for the most part..but like i said..the gap between multiplats closed A WHILE ago...it all boils down to SOME games run and better on one..some run and look better on the other..and if it's a significant difference...9 times outta 10 it's dev related...real talk..which is why as powerful as the PC is some ports run horrible on it..GTA4 for instance...

The ports on PC suffer from different issues though
they're significantly more powerful but they have to
contend with the OS and the myriad of different GPU's
available. On console it's one set of hardware, so they're
able to predict performance more accurately.


Yes. The Cell processor is faster and stronger than the
CPU in the 360 but all of that extra performance is used
to bring PS3 games up to parity with 360 games.
Without the Cell processor the Ps3 would be in even worse
condition, Why ? Once gain because the GPU is lacking.
Many things that would normally be done on the GPU
are thrown at the cell because the GPU is usually already
business enough as it is, and even then the Cell processor
is not a GPU and is slower at certain tasks that a graphics
processor is meant to handle.
Certain games show this already in real world performance years
after the ps3 has been explored and Sony has sent experts to help
developers, it's not like we're in 2007 anymore and no one knows
how to code for it.
The gap may have closed but it's still noticeable.

Mark Cerny brings this up in his Cerny talk, they created
the ICE team to address developer grievances that stemmed directly
from the ps3 under performing.

I don't really care to argue this because it's
been proven time and a again that the 360
does have real hardware advantages.
You can either go to a serious tech oriented
website and read about the pros and cons from real experts
and various people who have worked on both machines
OR
you can go off of the websites that don't have half
as many knowledgeable users.

Sad self entitled xbot nerds think every rumor that have a parade about needs to be validated/invalidated in a couple hours.

PS4 stan saying this :wow:

Im trying to figure out what you're happy about. There isnt one spec that xbox one has shown to be superior over ps4. Misery loves company i guess.

Both the specs are going to be about the same if this is true.If it is true you basically got a worthless walmart PC :umad:

Either way fam...MOST have them as even as there's advantages and disadvantages with each system...therefore it isn't as cut and dry like i said before...it's a FACT the gpu on the 360 is more powerful...it's a FACT that the CPU in the PlayStation is FAR more powerful...as far as overall power of each system...its not cut and dry..which is why in most cases and comparisons it just ends up boiling down to the games...im standing by this...ANY time it was a significant difference in performance with a game..it has been Dev related...look game for game comparisons g...

I like to throw out the esram 192 gb/s number that digital foundry hasn't recanted yet. But whatever It appears that the ps4 gddr5 runs at 178 gb/s but only going to have 4.5gb ram available (without getting permission). 8 divided by 176 means 22 per gb of ram. 4.5 x 22 = 99 gb/s.

The xbox one 8 GB of DDR3 RAM with a memory bandwidth of 68.3 GB/s.with only 5 available for gaming 42 gb/s

42 gb/s compared to 99 gb/s is a no brainer. Except that esram that is rumored to be 192 gb/s read and write may actually only be 102 gb/s.

So we are looking at at least 144 gb/s to 99 gb/s... It looks like an xbox win but ps4 will be easier to make the games for. so who will win?



Please stop with this shyt about 192gb esram already...You the only guy on planet earth that believes that shyt.

No, not they're not going to be the same.
If true.

5.5 gigs of gddr5 = Superior to 5 gigs of ddr3

That GPU is inferior.

Sorry man. You're paying more, for Less, and bytch i love it. :shaq:

Xbox wont even release the official clockspeeds of their CPU and from what ive read everything points to that being trash as well, by a GiGAHERT. :whoo: Wow, that gigahurts. :youngsabo:

This seems like quite a leap. I'll wait for Sony to address this before assuming it's true, but disappointing if it is.

Ps4 specs>Xbox one-eighty specs

Ps4 price>xbox one-eighty price

All this "they are basically the same" bullshyt when one clearly has superior hardware and remains $100 cheaper. And no one gives a fukk about the camera, Triple A games likely won't use it anyway.
