And X1 was downclocked, despite both systems being quite "bulky" boxes.

Apparently, some people think these systems do not represent a jump as big as the previous console gens and don't outmatch high-end PCs.

But it seems to me those people are quite badly informed, as there was *no* console generation that outmatched top PCs and what these systems have inside is pushing it for the form-factor, power consumption and cooling system.

Apparently, a sub 400$ set-top box should be able to outmatch a 2000$+ PC system...

However, it is also true that these systems will outmatch the large majority of PCs out there.

Like it or not, the majority of PCs is still sporting integrated graphics and dual-core CPUs.

So outside of SW's myths, these systems will push things forward, for gaming.

all console generations have pushed everything forward, especially nowadays since they're using PC components. The point SW lawyers forget is while console upgrades are finite and stuck in time, PC growth is a constant progression month to month. So withing a year of launch, high end PCs will be right back to where they were in relation to consoles, the cycle continues.

That was never proven. Until full specs come out you can't claim anything as far as downgrades.

How the hell do you get both being bulky? The PS4 is marginally bigger than the PS3 Slim in length. Everywhere else it's smaller.

And where is this overheating shyte you've been bragging about?

Interesting! Thanks. Do you think that could have a negative effect on the system air flow(overheating)? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think it will have that big an impact. From the rear view, it looks like it should have enough ventilation.

ps4 is anything but bulky.

I think that ac4 stage fluke was more ubisofts fault than sony, the AC games are notoriously buggy.

What?

Your post is a mess, and I can't even get what you're talking about. PS4 is overheating, X1 is downclocked, both systems being "bulky", they don't outmatch high-end PCs...

Whaaa?

Seems like everyday a new, fake rumor pops up trying to make the PS4 look bad. Since when did posting unofficial and unconfirmed rumors become OK? Either back it up with technical data from reliable sources or stop creating threads!
