Playstation 4 Hardware Specs
While I’m personally not a console gamer, rather a PC gamer, I’m still excited about the Playstation 4 announcement. The reason why is because as a whole, the gaming industry for the most part has been held back graphically thanks to aging last generation console hardware. The next generation of consoles will finally introduce direct X 11 graphics to console gamers. What does this mean for PC gamers and console gamers alike? It will finally bring gaming experiences that are only enjoyed in a select few titles on the PC which require a mid range to high end PC to enjoy to the masses.
I’m excited to see, while somewhat vague in description, hardware specs of the upcoming PS4. It seems that many of the rumors on the net were pretty accurate.
PS4 Hardware Specs:
“A press release reveals the machine will include an 8-core 64-bit x86 “Jaguar” CPU developed by AMD and a Radeon GPU with the capability of terrorizing televisions with 1.84 TFLOPS of gaming goodness.
PlayStation 4 includes a Blu-ray drive that spins game discs a brisk 6X and 8X for DVDs. Additional specs in the release note the, already revealed, 8GB of unified GDDR5 RAM along with 802.11n WiFi capability, USB 3.0 ports, Bluetooth 2.1 and ports for optical audio, HDMI and even legacy analog AV hook-ups. Though the console will have internal storage, Sony did not detail its size.
Sony’s plan is to launch its new PlayStation 4 console this holiday season. No specific date.”
