But I thought there was 8 GB of that DDR5 RAM and then another quantity of RAM for computing...I might not be talking apples to apples though, I could be out of my element.


I would really doubt it is dedicated solely to graphics.

Like Stout said, it will probably be shared, just like the PS3.

But the Ps3 was released a year later.

So although worldwide doesn't show much, the per time period sales have to be a decent amount higher.

I didn't see anything about fire. That's with a year headstart for XBOX as well. Do you think they factor in the multiple consoles bought due to RROD?

Keep in mind that link was from someone in the comments section and not actually G4. It sounds like a UltimateHog homer because every credible source/news site has shown it as shared. Of course Sony could have cleared this up with more details on specs.

Question though, is the GDDR5 only meant for graphics, meaning they got the spec wrong?

ETA:

Is GDDR different than DDR?

Going off of trends though the Xbox is the dominate unit the past 3 years. I was just saying Sony needs to reverse that trend in a bad way. They know this and that's why they are desperate to be the first to market.

You can look up the figures yourself but outside of a month or two here and there the Xbox has been dominate in the past 3 years give or take.

I'm sorry more PS3s have been sold than 360s. I wish I could change that to make you happier.

I agree that first is better no doubt, but if they are 1.1 mil ahead and have been out a year less, than the average sales per period has to be higher, meaning PS3 has outperformed.

Nvidia will be releasing a new GPU called Titan soon (probably months and months before PS4) that has 6GB of GDDR5. This card is being called a "super computer GPU". Which is still 2GB less than the PS4. That is why that number is an industry leader.

The PS4 has better specs than I thought it would, but comparing it to a $1000 GPU is crazy. The GTX titan prison rapes the PS4 GPU. The ram number is also shared RAM and not video RAM.

Not sure if they misspoke or if since a console is a specilized system the architecture allows the GDDR5 to work for the whole system.

In the US, not worldwide. I guess I shouldn't be surprised a MS fanboy is focusing just on the US market.

Yeah, you can't even compare the two. It's not a simple as saying "Oh. That that number is higher than the other, so it must be better."
