im having this discussion with my brother at the moment, could one of you guys tell me if the ps3 was a pc what would the components be? ( cpu, gpu ram etc)
this is asked in a strictly gaming level (graphics and how smooth the game runs)
What would a PC need to be at the same level - consider uncharted 2
Thanks
David

A PC around the level of a PS3. Depends. The GPU itself is not that powerful, what makes consoles powerful is the fact that they're hardware is used dedicated gaming only, not running background processes and games as you get in desktop computers. If your looking to get PS3 quality graphics, with ps3 FPS then your looking to spend somewhere in the area of $500 with no operating system.

The PS3 itself uses a GPU that is a modified 7900 GT~ (G72) chip by nvidia. In all honestly I am not 100% what it would perform at compared to desktop graphics some same close to a 8800 GT other says it's no where near a 8800 GT. I myself think it runs between an HD 4670 and Geforce 8800.

hmmm......

as for as i know a PS3 uses a graphics card as powerful as a 4650 1GB OC or a 9600Gt
Ram would be 2 GB DDr2 and a quad core 3.2GHzprocessor

the good news if a program is going to be developed which can act as a O/s whos only purpose is gaming!
then with a 9800Gt
you could get the same performance as GTX260!!!!

this is true

and

pc games are more graphically intense than Xbox or ps3

a ps3 with a 5870 would be a monster Gaming Console

my brother has an HP hdx 16t with a GeForce GT 130m 1gig dedicated 4gig GDDR2 and he thinks his graphics and gaming ability are better than my PS3 on a full HD 32" toshiba regza - which would you say performs better gaming wise?

XD wow okini I'm sure the PS3's 7 SPE's are just as good as 4 actual cores

The PS3 has 8 cores just like the i7 920 has 8 cores. I love how Sony markets their stuff. Not to mention 1 of the cores isn't even used for gaming

The PS3's Cell wasn't even that advanced when it launched. There's a reason the PS3 itself doesn't cost as much as the i7 980. Its more compared Core 2 Duo's in terms of actual performance. Not to mention any current GPU would destroy any PS3 game. There is a reason why they don't have perfect ports of Crysis on PS3. Mostly because it can't handle it

bullshit. Dont look at multiplats. Do you really think your bros PC can run MGS 4?.. OR UC2??? Or KZ2??

Yeah except Crysis blows all of them away in terms of technical graphics and the PS3 can't run it. Stop being dense please. Learn something about the parts you're talking about.

yeah cos Sony is losing money on each ps3 they sell. The CPU costs more than the actual PS3s. So sony is producing those CPUs for a higher price than the actual PS3 price. Core i7 costs more cos pc nerds are buying that piece of poo poo no matter how much it costs. Core i7 aint worth the price and im sure it costs like 50 bucks to mate those. Maybe less.

Wow I've never seen you post but everyone talks about how much of a troll you are. I didn't think it was true but apparently it is. Do you even bother to learn about any of the stuff you talk about or do you just ignore facts and go on talking out of your ass?

http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/cpu/display/20070312121941.html

The chip costs $40 a pop to make. Has 1 functional core and 7 others that are SPE fake cores. Much the same way the i7 is 8 core by using HT. Do you even know that the 360's CPU in terms of core vs core is more powerful than the Cell? Seriously do us a favor and stop posting. Yeah the cell is great for a server farm. Its not great at multitasking.

UNCHARTED 2 CAN RUN ON THE PC IF THEY WANTED TO PORT IT. God what the hell do you not get about exclusives? Just because Crackdown isn't on PC doesn't mean the PC can't run it. Oh and atleast PC games can actually do goddamn 1080p instead of faking it. Not to mention I have a PS3 and a 360 and a Wii. I just try not to be a moron on the subject.

It puzzles me why he is not banned. He curses other people, denigrates their experience and nothing. :heink:

What the hell is a GT 130? A 4850 could outdo the PS3. My god you're sad. I would continue arguing with you but I have a brick wall to talk to whose IQ is higher.

Did you not learn how to read in Middle School yet? I have a PS3. I have a 360. The graphics on either don't compare to current mid tier gaming PC's. Either you're just trying to troll or you really are this dense

He said he is 14 in some thread. I can't believe people like this with any experience whatsoever are still kept here and are give the possibility to influence people's decisions.

I'm sorry you paid $2500 for a i7/6GB Ram and a 5770? What the hell did you do get a $2000 SDD?

And yes I could build a $300 PC that could outdo a PS3. A freaking 9600GT with a C2D could outdo a PS3 in terms of graphics.

meteroidman - me and my brother have been arguing for weeks about graphics - He has a HD hdx 16t with Geforce GT 130m 1gig dedicated, 4 gig over all DDR2 - would you say that in a gaming sense (graphics and smoothness) this runs better than a PS3?

I have no idea what a Geforce GT 130 is. I can't say. What's his processor? Everytime I look up a GT 130, Apple keeps popping up. I'm not even sure what the 130 is equivalent too. All I can say is that for gaming a C2D, 4850 and 4gigs of Ram should easily outdo a PS3 graphically. But then again why do you guys even care. It won't matter unless the games are there to take full advantage of it. No PC game out now really is pushing the boundaries of PC's because they want to be easily able to port them for consoles.
