Hi all..
Well According to VG247 :http://www.vg247.com/2012/11/01/ps4_details_playstation_4/
It seams that the Playstation 4 hardware components mostly has been revealed
It is said that this time Sony will use a x86 processor, instead of the Cell processor used on PS3, it would be a modified AMD A10 series APU [ even the first generation i7 of intel are faster than that !!]
the site didn't mention anything about a video card, but it seams that rumors said it would be a 7 series ATI, and probably a modified version of the ATI HD 7670
some additional info about how many rams inside, some said to be 8 GB or 16 GB, and it will be standard for storage 256 GB [no body knows if it is HDD or SDD]
we have many questions here guys, help me if u know the answer plz
!
-first it seams that the APU won't be that tough as long as there are many processors now are better that this, as contrary, ps3 cell processor was a beast when it was released beyond pc processors, am i correct about that ?!
-second, jumping from the cell processor technology to the x86 architecture, would it be easier to port games from PS4 to PC , i mean more easier than the PS3 ?!
-third, if it is an x86 architecture design has been used on a console, so what differs it from a normal PC then ?! i mean - referring my knowledge and i might be wrong - the cell processor that in ps3 was for a dedicated purpose only and can't do many stuff like any pc processors, but jumping to x86 architecture, it will give PS4 potential to run as a PC, as long that design architecture is based on multi purpose use...right ?!!
Thx alot,
Best regards

). The difference from normal PC will be the operating system.
