They supposedly have a good audio block, but it's dependant on how the devs implement it, approximately half the chip consists of caches for either the main processor or the additional units. It has extra chips for decoding, encoding, playback and scaling of videos in the background. The only real disadvantage is the lack of a GPU (of course this isn't important to MS) since the PS 4 has a newer revision with 1152 units@ 800Mhz vs. 768 units@ 836Mhz. So we end up with a box that does have one advantage: multimedia/TV. Well if you want all of those extra chips without kinect there are sub 100$ solutions to buy alongside your PS4.

GDDR5 vs. DDR3. APU (PS4) seemless access to GDDR vs. the CPU + GPU (XB1) load and unload to RAM, which needs more time to program and does take longer to load (though I don't think it would take too long, DDR3 is still good, but what type of speed are they running their system at? :) ... makes you wonder). I don't know. Microsoft should shut the fuck up and swallow shit already.

Indeed.

the microsoft tech can allow it to function better then the ps4 if the ps4 clocks and everything were the same, but they made a similar mistake as the ps3 they made it more difficult to program for then their competition which proved to be a bing hit on ps3 with game patches and such.
So yea have fun with that microsoft when contracts arent renewed as quick to give you advantages in release dates and such

PS4 was going to opt for these ... small cache chips which would boost it to about 1000 GB of programmed correctly, but they went more mainstream and decided to opt for easy and simple programming. Good stuff.
I don't care. I want games. Sony needs to bring games in and they need to bring a shit ton of them by 2014.

Also in comparison it looks like PS4 has over twice as many games announced compared to Xbox.
Also I want slenderman games for PS4!
