    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    aggroboyThe big beef is this: you're using memory benchmarks for existing PCs. PC's discrete GPU evolution path has been designed around the limitation of the PCI/AGP bus, GPUs became standalone processors designed for receiving command buffer instructions and keeping all computations local. So...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    Then why did you say it would take 3-4 years for most gaming PC's to catch up? Most PCs built for gaming are already ahead of it. Budget machines should be very close. Still, I can agree with you that hardware with a dedicated purpose tend to perform much better, so it will be interesting to see...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    Aggroboy - No need to be agrressive (Ironic username, then, eh?) I wasn't sure what you were asking, so I asked for clarification. I went on to elaborate on every point I made to the best of my ability to answer your question. So unless you ignored the other 2 paragraphs in my response, I tried...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    How would I know what? That GDDR5 is based on DDR3? That is public information, very easy to figure out. As for the rest of the stuff, again, you don't have to be a programmer to see that even by today's standards, there are far more powerful processors and video cards available. So even if the...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    *sigh* I'm just going to quit, you are obviously trolling. We weren't talking about software, we're talking about hardware specs. According to you, the Nintendo 3DS clearly outperforms the PS4, because it has exclusive titles. The point is, we were comparing hardware, you set the budget of...

    nokiddingbossyep and this comments section has completely devolve into a specs war. The GLORIOUS PC GAMING MASTER RACE can't even finished reading the article without butting up your "l33t" machines. you guys tend to skip out on the non-graphics related content like - "I've always said that the...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    nokiddingbossi'll quote you on this one "But to say the PS4 will be more powerful than any PC is just stupid." the ps4 will be more powerful than a lot of non-enthusiast PC. not everyone is running i5's/i7's paired with gtx670/680/690. most of them are running low-end hardware my friend. infact...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    [citation]palladin9479wall of textcitation] GDDR5 will cruch DDR3 in bandwidth. DDR3 has the latency advantage. That is why DDR3 continues to be used for system RAM and GDDR5 is typically used in GPUs, where the additional latency makes little difference in parallel applications. It will be...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    This isn't a matter of PC vs Console war. They both have their place and I play both. But to say the PS4 will be more powerful than any PC is just stupid. It may be more cost effective, but it will not perform as well as high end PCs. Yes, high end PCs are more expensive, but that's not the...

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    much better processor* And no, Gamoniac, the high end gaming PCs will outperform the PS4 and XBOX Next from launch day, just like they did with the PS3 and XBOX 360. Yes, the next gen consoles will be respectable machines, but in no way will they outperform the mid-high end gaming PC segment.

    Epic VP: PS4 is Like a Perfect Gaming PC

    spentshellsOh your pc has 8 GB of gddr5? You know GDDR5 is based on DDR3, right? 16GB DDR3 + much better GPU (With your beloved GDDR5) + much better process > PS4. Not that hard to figure out.

    Toshiba Reveals Word's First Glasses-free 3DTV

    I agree Captain Charisma! I am still using my old Cyrix 133mhz desktop computer that I had about 12 years ago. I thought about updating when the pentium line came out, but I just knew there were going to be updates, so I saved my cash. Sure enough, there was a pentium! I wanted to wait until...

    U.S. Soldier in Afghanistan Got $16,000 AT&T Bill

    I am currently a SGT(P) in the US Army. I've been in for 5 year. I've also done to tours to Iraq. Let me get started first by saying, yes, AT&T is a joke and they should be ashamed of themselves for the bill. Now secondly... This PFC is a joke and should be ashamed of his stupidity. He should...

    Street Fighter X Tekken: Finally Fighting Together

    Rab1d-BDGRThis makes me very happy! I just hope that each company can replicate the "feel" of controling the characters from the other franchise. Otherwise it will just be SF with tekken characters and tekken with SF characters - not that that would be a bad thing - but genuine tekken vs SF...

    No 3DS Until March 2011; Design Could Change

    osxsieryeah another analog stick would be nice. And a functional browser and I am sold. I have not bought a nintendo handheld in a while, but i may buy this one.Also, make it look less like a DS more like a PSP. I thought the PSP looked slick and DS kinda kiddy. Because a perfectly smooth...
