Game consoles use RAM more efficiently than PC's. PC's need a reserve of RAM to perform operations in the background for the operating system. For the most part, this isn't an issue for gaming consoles.

Eh? I thought it had 256, and 256 on the gpu.moshakirby

its does but the cpu and access the gpu ram and the gpu can acess the cpu ram if needed

Yes, and it runs the RAM faster. You can run Crysis on medium settings maybe high if its optimized very well. You wount get Max setting though. Go to system wars man, we need smart poeple like you to put the fanboys in their place.

Always remember that RAM is a substitue for use of the HDD because it is MUCH faster and efficent to move data around. The HDD is too slow. That is why you can set a marker on your HDD to act as RAM in the case of RAM running low.... in other words: virtual memory. It is easier to access memory at any time if you're accessing it from RAM instead of the HDD.

4yr old thread....

Really guys?

256 MB of RAM. The Xbox 360 has 512MB of RAM. This is why the PS3 has difficulties with some ports of games. The playstation version of The elder scriolls Skyrim is an axample of this problem with the amount of RAM of PS3.
