Are today's PC's already ahead of what we will see from the Xbox 720 and PS4, or will PC's be playing catch up for a year? Will consoles step up the RAM to 4 GB or what?

Sadly I wouldn't be suprised if the companies took the Wii route next gen and make a low-power console.

Wouldn't they go higher then 4 gigs of RAM, I mean my computer has that and it's not even a gaming PC so I don't see why consoles can't og much higher

They'll use the same hardware, but use a different case.

So? Even gaming pcs only tend to have 4gb of ram. The cpu and gpu determine whether its a gaming pc or not. I actually think that the high-end enthusiasts cards that are out right now are already too expensive for the games companies to use as final specs for the next gen consoles. Now is about the time they will be doing this aswell. I doubt very much they will be using anything like a GTX295 or a 4870. So with that said, by the time consoles are released yet again they will already be behind what pc gaming offers in terms of power!

I'm just saying, in X amount of years I'd assume they'd go even higher.... but I don't really know to much about hardware specifications so I guess I really shouldn't say anything :P

Computers playing catch up. :lol: :roll: Computers advance so fast its unbelievable. Consoles will always be weaker than computers. But to answer you question, its hard to see. We went from Dual to Quad in less than three years we could very well be on Acht Cores by time the next consoles roll out.

Most likely mid-range performance of the PC hardware that will be released at the end of this year and into early 2010.

Nintendo - may skip a generation and continue selling Wii and DS (money printing machines)

Sony - They'll do some 3d console

Microsoft - Same as 360 but beefier specs

Oh and if we talk about PS3 we all hate that thing, because everyone hates a winner.

On what planet does anyone think microsoft would name the Xbox 360......720. Honestly the only thing we can be sure of is the next Nintendo console will be equal to an xbox360.

You are right. And the intelligent thing for them to do would be making this generation last a couple of years longer than usual.

Technology is always ever-accelerated and never improve in incremented rates. - learn this from michael crichton:cry: RIP....

Anyways, next gen specs will be a bigger leap in hardware than the leap from PS2 to PS3. I think it'll have a seemingly much more powerful tech than those that will be on the market by whatever year it is the consoles will debut. Much higher RAM is a must.
