[QUOTE="Innovazero2000"][QUOTE="tormentos"] I still think that it will be 2GB,it could be more if Kinect is a heavy hit,there are rumors about siri like stuff and other things as well,it may be it maybe be not. I also think the PS4 will use like 1GB or 1.5,and not the 512 rumored.tormentos
I would assume they would use a custom Windows 8 RT kernal, very low foot print at 512mb.

Doesn't make sense, with the huge amount of ram been DDR3,even with ESRAM they would not use most of the ram if the quantity would be over 5GB. Also Xindows RT tablets use 2GB of ram, and while they are shared with the GPU i don't think table GPU need more than 300MB for GPU Ram.

Why wouldn't they use the Ram? As long as bandwidth is available there to push the amount of data, I see no issues with anyone wanting to use as much ram as they want. (That goes for any system/PC)

WP8 RT Smartphones go as low as 512mb, most come stock with 1GB+ for more performance however.

720=8,224 mb of ram

ps4=8,192 mb of ram.

720 wins lol if the gpu and cpu just as powerful as ps4.

[QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"] This. These idiots dont even realize that both systems are based off of the same technology. Both systems are using 8 AMD Jaguar cores, and GCN based GPUs based on 7970m. tormentos
Non are base on 7970m... The xbox 720 GPU is 12CU with an 8core jaguar,8BG of DDR3 and 32MB of ESRAM. The PS4 is 18CU unified and enhance for computing purposes as well,8 core Jaguar,8GB of GDDR5. Now the GPU don't have the same power the PS4 one is stronger and from the same line,which mean the difference will be notice. The PS4 has a separate chip to handle the OS,the xbox 720 is say to use 2 cores for OS,that means the PS4 has more resources for graphics vs a console that already is under power. The 720 is say to have 3GB of ram reserve for OS and system,the PS4 is rumored to use only 512MB.. There are some serious differences between the 2 systems,if it end like this ^^^ the PS4 will walk over the 720 with ease.

Do you not learn from the past? For the past 6 years the supposedly more powerful PS3 as a whole never showed any appreciable advantage. As long as the two systems are comparable in power development will be based on the lowest common denominator and the extra power in the more powerful goes largely unused. This also doesn't take in to account that Sony machines tend to launch missing features and/or hardware that they are initially displayed with and that MS has a 30 year history with making tools for x86 based systems(along with a graphical API they themselves make)while Sony has almost none. If the only differences between the machines are the RAM speed and slightly different GPU's based on the same family, the specs of these machines will be far closer than any other generation and the advantages weren't leveraged then and they won't be now.

I forsee games looking mostly identical with Cow claiming exclusives look better than anything else even though they're at the same level as top end multiplats. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Let's talk when we know the actual specs.

Quit using logic, that's not allowed in system wars.

First thing the xbox 360 has a stronger GPU than the PS3 and more advance to,the PS3 has a better CPU in the end It was close,but it was the 360 the one with the stronger GPU who end losing. We are talking now about hardware from the same vendor,one is considerable weaker,and has slower ram,now when it comes to making games non sony console has ever use MS API like Direct3D,in fact thank because direct3D on PC is a performance killer.
