ouch...greenpowerz and NeverEnding1989 won't like this

**at PS4′s GPU is 3x slower than Nvidia’s Titan.**

so ...can some one tell me what GPU ps4 is using ?!

EDIT : thanks ambrosia
Wow, ps4 will be a Beast

7850 - 7870 // GTX 660 - GTX 660Ti
I gotta laugh at nVidia for making such a "comparison".

ninjahunter4465d ago

@Torchic Sony said that the PS4 could ALMOST pump out a whopping 2 teraflops of raw power. which is in the range of the above mentioned cards.

Dee_914464d ago

ugh cant wait for e3.The way nvidia had been acting lately I wouldnt be surprised if they are going based off rumors ( tho I doubt it )
Nvidia are so salty right now lol.
where was these comparisons when ps3 had your hardware?

How would Nvidia know if the 720 is weaker or not they had nothing to do with the 720 development process

papashango4465d ago

Probably because they specialize in GPU hardware. You really think they don't have access to the specs being used?

ignorant if you think not.

Mariusmssj4465d ago

Don't you think that at some point Microsoft approached Nvidia saying: "Could you make us a GPU for the next Xbox, we would like to have 'this' and 'this' and 'this' from a GPU"

Specs haven't been announced yet... How can anyone be mad about anything.

I'll call it right now. There will be no graphical difference between the xbxo3 and ps4.
Like this gen it will be slight differences in the default brightness and contrast.

And don't say exclusives will look better on this console or that console because exclusives have no comparison. Which is why they are exclusive! Not just too console but art style and gameplay.

Ezz20134466d ago (Edited 4466d ago )

this is just plain wrong
are you saying UE3 is the same as SSM engine or ND engine or GG engine or RAGE engine or crytek engine etc ?!
it's not just bright or contrast
it's much more than that
you have textuers ,art style,lighting, shadows,AA etc to work on

brightness and contrast are the last thing dev's care about ..since you can always adjust them from your own TV

Nah this news won't penetrate into their fantasy world.

No one knows cause Sony left out that IMPORTANT information as it was too busy blinding Fanboys with 8 GB GDDR5.

But with a KNOWN 1.84 tflops of power it will be a Modified HD7770m or a HD7850m.

m = mobile meaning low wattage use like in LAPTOPS cause basically consoles use laptop parts because of the Watt caps they have.

Sony left this info out for a reason cause it would really let us know the EXACT limits of the PS4.

but as is the PS4 will produce High Graphic settings with post processing effects at 1080p 30 fps.

maybe second gen games will see 1080p 60 fps with new techniques.

But NO ULTRA and NO super duper graphics mods like the PC has

also when did Microsoft release the X720 specs? kinda like it hasn't!

ZoyosJD4465d ago

Whoa there, the 1.84TFLOP matches a 7850-7870, not a 7850m.

The 7870m barely outputs 1TFLOP at 800MHz, the 7850m can't even make that.

The 7970m outputs just over 2TFLOPS at 850MHz.

The PS4s GPU is set for a 800MHz clock.

A company just wants to do multimedia and Kinect 2 so a man doesn't know what they would need the power for.

SlavisH24466d ago (Edited 4466d ago )

didnt the 360 have a stronger gpu this gen and ps3 still put out better graphical games? So its not up to the gpu alone, right? Either way Im getting the titan lol.

P.S. I dont care about rumors they arent facts so blow it out your @$$. Just wait for offical specs.

yewles14466d ago

It's expected through the same sources that leaked the PS4 specs that the CPU will be the same on both consoles and that the RAM will possibly be a bottleneck for gaming (but not for other OS features such as switching between multiple games at once)...

ginsunuva4466d ago

That's because ps3 had the crazy cell processor.
But now both have pretty much the same cpu.

M-M4465d ago

You're really going to shell out $1,000 for just one GPU?

Hercules1894465d ago

Have you looked at gears 3 and judgement, forza 4 and halo 4 and crysis 2. These games look imo just as good as the ps4 games, I know im going to get a lot of disagrees bcus ur not allowed to say anything good about xbox on this site. microsoft is the devil and sony and all their devs are all kings

torchic4466d ago

how does nVidia know all of this? nobody knows what GPU is packed in the upcoming consoles.

are people just looking at TFLOPS and assuming?

DeadlyFire4465d ago

My friend Tflops are a scorecard of a GPU.

Sure on a console it can be as powerful as a raw PC GPU with optimization and platform specializing, but when someone has more digits their optimization will go about the same distance, but they are starting at a higher number so its not an assumption that it has more juice.

Max-Zorin4466d ago

I wish N4G would stop putting so much faith in rumors and wait for official information.

NVIDIA Smooth Motion: Up to 70% More FPS Using Driver Level Frame Gen on RTX 50 GPUs

NVIDIA’s RTX 50 “Blackwell” architecture has been a bit of a bore for us gamers. Apart from Multi Frame Generation, which has limited use-case scenarios, there isn’t much to be excited about. It is achieved using GPU-side Flip Metering. The optical field data is generated using AI models in the Tensor cores.

The raytracing probably doesn't even equal a low end PC GPU, even if it did it would probably be mostly useless. They'll probably force it in some game now that will run like shit maybe 30fps at best, just because "it can do it"

B5R77d ago

Raytracing is so unnecessary for a handheld. I just hope you can turn it off.

Vits77d ago

A lot of gamers don’t realize that ray tracing isn’t really about making games look better. It’s mainly there to make development easier and cheaper, since it lets devs skip a bunch of old-school tricks to fake reflections and lighting. The visual upgrade is just a nice bonus, but that’s not the main reason the tech exists.

So you can be 100% sure that developers will try to implement it every chance they get.

RaidenBlack77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

Agree with Vits .... but also to add, if devs and designers just implement RT to a game world then it won't always work as expected. RT is not just reflections but also lighting and illumination as well. For example, If you just create a room with minimal windows, then it will look dark af, if RTGI is enabled. Devs and designers needs to sort out the game world design accordingly as well.
DF's Metro Exodus RT upgrade is an amazing reference video to go through, if anybody's interested.

darthv7277d ago

So is HDR... but they have it anyway.

thesoftware73077d ago

Some PS5 and SX games run at 30fps with RT...just like those systems, if you don't like it, turn it off.

I only say this to say, you make it seem like a problem exclusive to the Switch 2.

Neonridr77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

sour grapes much?

"It probably doesn't do it well because it's Nintendo and they suck". That's how your comment reads. Why don't you just wait and see before making these ridiculous statements?

Goodguy0178d ago

Please. I'd like to play my switch games on my 4k tv without it looking all doodoo.

PRIMORDUS78d ago

Nvidia could have said this months ago and cut the bullshit. Anyway the rumors were true.

Profchaos77d ago

Would have been nice but NDA likely prevented them from saying anything

PRIMORDUS77d ago

TBH I don't think Nvidia would have cared if they broke the NDA. A little fine they pay, and they go back to their AI shit. They don't even care about GPU's anymore. I myself would like them to leave the PC and console market.

Tacoboto77d ago

This story was written half a decade ago when the world knew Nvidia would provide the chip for Switch 2 and DLSS was taking off.

Profchaos77d ago

Yeah but similar thing happened a long time ago when 3dfx announced they were working with Sega when they took the company public Sega pulled out of the contract for the Dreamcast GPU.

In response Sega terminated the contract and went to a ultimately weaker chipset.

So there's a precedent but that Nintendo would have much Of an option its AMD, NVIDIA or Intel

Profchaos77d ago

I'm not expecting of anything from ray tracing but dlss will be the thing that sees the unit get some impossible ports.

andy8577d ago

Correct. All I'm seeing online is it'll never run FF7 Rebirth. If it can run cyberpunk it'll run it. The DLSS will help. Obviously only 30 fps but a lot don't care

Profchaos77d ago (Edited 77d ago )

Exactly right when I buy a game on switch I know what I'm getting into I'm buying a game for its portability and I'm willing to sacrifice fidelity and performance to play on a train or comfortably from a hotel room when I travel for work.
