I'm searching through AMD's corporate site to pull up the notes from the investors meeting.

As far as the GDDR5 ram goes, I doubt that it's for the entire system, although I'm pretty sure that some of it is allocated for vRam. Not even workstation GPU's provide that much vRam in a single unit.

What it'll end up coming…

I still doubt that its 8gb of just video ram, it wouldn't make sense. Even Workstation GPU's don't have that much vRam in a single unit. There has to be something Sony is not telling us. I'm going to assume that their are software modifications done via the OS (overclocking and such).

As I've said before. I got my info from AMD's investors meeting. I'm pretty sure that AMD would be the authority on the matter, more so than Sony and MS. If things have changed since that meeting than I'm probably wrong. To my knowledge there has been little or no changed. As far as Sony speaking up on the matter, I…

And there's where the misconceptions kicked in. Gddr5 ram is only for the gpu, not the entire system as Sony has made everyone believe. Ddr3 is system ram. Until there is a more specified spec list or until AMD decides to give the general public the specific spec lists, this misconception will continue. As far as how…

The problem is that these tech breakdowns are made on assumptions based on overly generic spec sheets from Sony and MS. I'd trust AMD over the other 2 just because they're the ones that actually make 99% of the compnents in both systems.

AMD's investors meeting, a bit before the "official" announcements by Sony and MS. The only discernable difference is how their OS' distribute and utilize ram. The spec list from Sony and MS were extremely generic at best and misled a lot of people.

Oh god. This nonsense again. AMD already stated that both consoles use the same exact hardware. The " hypothetical" units should be exactly the same. Last time I checked, neither Sony nor Microsoft are making the parts for their respective console. These hardware assemblers need to stop sugar coating their specs and…

Wouldnt be surprised if it was some sort of Malware

Supes sure does get his ass handed to him a lot

Shane, seriously, you have to stop. My pockets can't handle consecutive deal after consecutive deal. Lol

Idk what to ask so ill just say hi . . .

Someone should reach out to valve for comments. Ask them why the steam sale lacked the epicness that it usually has.

Playing hard ball huh Shane?

I hope all of the buttons arent pressure sensitive this time around, new triggers, and no tacked on motion controls. The ps3 changed the ps2's controller almost perfect design.

Reminds me of the mvc2 days, making comebacks with cyclops. And Yipes needs to become the official announcer at every tourney

They did this with Sf2 (ww, hyper, CE, Super, Super turbo) and with sf3 as well

Final Fantasy viii, skyrim, cod, borderlands, etc

3 DS', 3 PSP's, 2 Xbox's 2 PS3's (all which have died thanks to crappy QC, except for my DS lite). I don't plan on buying any other consoles from here on out. If my current ps3 dies, that's it for consoles until further notice. If I had to do it again, I would've built my PC earlier. At least if something goes wrong…

I still say nothing has changed. In the post e3 interview between keighley and trenton, trenton said that it was ultimately the publishers decision whether or not they wanted to block used games. In the end, both execs have side stepped the issues and placed them on the publishers

Guess they dont want MIT students and hackers unleashing the flood gates again and showing their developers how to properly develop stuff for the kinect.
