The Cell actually sounds somewhat meme-able. GDDR5 doesn't.

Both are God-like. One belongs to the Godstation 3 while the other belongs to the Godstation 4.

One cannot gauge the influence of either in something as simple and peasantly as a petty poll.

PC's have had GDDR5 for years now. Most cards only have 1-4GB of it though, but that is solely dedicated to the GPU, whereas DDR3 is dedicated for system memory. For example, my PC has 2GB of GDDR5 RAM and then 8GB of DDR3 RAM at 2133Mhz. The RAM in the PS4 is unified for both system and GPU memory.

Stop with the stupid generalizations. Any way I bet at least 5.5 GB of that will be available for games. Probably more.

We can turn GDDR into an acronym for God Damn DAT Rocks or something similar to make it more appealing.

The Cell was a colossal failure, DDR5 can't comment on something that doesn't exist yet.

I just wonder if OP is mad because Sony didn't announce they will use DDR6?

 

Of all the butthurt that could hurt butt, hearing people complain about a system having 8GB of GDDR5 is about as ridiculous as possible.  Just admit you hate Sony and be done with it.

That is a tough one. The Cell was a loyal friend for a long time. But I must admit the RAM has caused a lot more butthurt and damage control in the hermit camp than I expected. I guess like 99% of hermits have a rig that is inferior in this particular aspect. And since hermits have a natural bent for penis envy, when one aspect is inferior to what someone else has, it's an itch they just can't ignore. Hmmm I guess I have to go with the RAM since it's still a very effective butthurter.

as bad as GDDR5 is, it's quantifiable whereas the Cell always had the excuse of "hidden powah" so the cell was much much much more annoying

I'll go with GDDR5, but not because of the fanboy hype, but because of the fakeboy hype. For every fanboy I've seen giving it any kind of hype, I find about 10 fakeboys falsely hyping it.

Sony have supercharged it with special Sony technology so all 8GB is available for games. The final Killzone: Shadow Fall will look 10000000x better than the alpha clip they showed, because they have gone from 1.5GB to a massive tread damaging, tire splitting 8GB.

Going by some of the comments from other threads, I would say around 95% of the forums doesn't know what GDDR5 is. So it's not like anyone can point fingers.
