Thanks for being first off the line to provide us with the Ram. I look forward to a massive amount of that being held in reserve because they want Cortana do do local processing so they can generate some "Faster Than Siri!" sales tagline that nobody cares about.

In the future, everything will be prerendered. They will pop up with some quick time events and if you don't hit the right button, the video will pause until you do.

i mean their analysis doesn't make sense at all. vegas chip but with gddr5 instead of hbm2 (or gddr5x) also 12GB not 8 or 16

true its a figment much like the actual console will be when occulus gets shut down next year after losing all its marketshare to htc and sony and the bone is unceremoniously put to pasture. but it begs the question, why render it to have 12 gbs of gddr5 if that's not the plan

gddr5x is being used in new cards atm as a stopgap until hbm2 can be supplied better. if you're releasing a console in 2017 may as well get hbm2

So you are saying its already got the wrong ram and the marketing execs are already fighting behind the scenes over people laughing at the goofy pitch for their new console?

right so tech specs via that are:
320GB/s memory bandwidth
6 Teraflops of GPU Power™
8 cpu cores

Promises:
4k gaming w/o scaling
holiday 2017

i expect a lot of backtracking over promises in the future, besides

If it can do 4k gaming without scaling it's going to be like $800 at launch. They've already flubbed the scorpio and Sony is loving stupid if they release the PS5 before 2018.

they say it's 8 cores, but it's still part of amd's construction microarchitecture, so it's really 8 half cores

I was gonna post that the only way that would work is if the UHD blu ray drive was external.

And then I remembered the 360's HD-DVD drive.
