It was already mentioned in another thread but it didn't get that much attention, although I find it pretty surprising: According to Kotaku, the Xbox One can only access 90% of the GPU ressources for games (1.107 TFLOPS).

So I think if the PS4 doesn't reserve a similar, noticable amount, which doesn't seem to be that far-fetched in my opinion, this would make the PS4 GPU not 50% but 66% more powerful (or the Xbox One GPU 40% less powerful, instead of 33%). Please lock if unnecessary.

but the power of the cloud.

Vermillion · May 24, 2013

Huh. So what are the odds of PS4 doing the same?

GrizzNKev · May 24, 2013

Xbone is starting to sound less like Vegeta and more like Yamcha.

jwk94 · May 24, 2013

90% seems pretty high. Why is this a bad thing?

marc^o^ · May 24, 2013

Can this make a framerate difference?

Qassim · May 24, 2013

It really doesn't matter when you have the Infinite Power of the Cloud.

That would be better. Krillin could kick Yamcha's ass.

JAYSIMPLE · May 24, 2013

the ps4 has to have some overheads, but still the xbox is weaksause. cant believe my 3 year old pc murders it

Pandemic · May 24, 2013

Cloud will then add 40 times more power to that 90%, don't forget that people, cloud is important here!

shinobi602 · May 24, 2013

The game is loaded in memory and is fully running. The game has full access to the reserved system resources, which are six CPU cores, 90 percent of GPU processing power, and 5 GB of memory. The game is rendering full-screen and the user can interact with it.

Huh? It's not an 8-core CPU?

darkwing · May 24, 2013

the Cloud makes it 40x faster though

Poor Yamcha, all hype.

That's just insultful. Krillin is stronger than Yamcha.

It makes a comparatively weak GPU weaker in raw power terms. Not the end of the world.

No, Xbone is like Vegeta.

At least Yamcha knew he was weak, useless, and would never catch up.

Kyon · May 24, 2013

EDIT: seriously can this get any worse?

Because it should be 100% or 99.99%

Absolutely.

..After reading some of the responses in other Xbox One threads, I can't tell if you being serious or sarcastic.

Jinfash · May 24, 2013

So the cloud will actually only make it 37 times more powerful? God, when will the lying end?!

Toxa · May 24, 2013

is that MS secret sauce ?

Is it the same for the PS4?

Man · May 24, 2013

Oh boy if true...

Chuck Norris · May 24, 2013

I think we still need to wait and hear what resources PS4 is putting towards OS.

Yep, will be interesting to hear about that

At least Yamcha got a job. Did Goku or Vegeta ever work? At least Yamcha played Baseball.

Yes, according to the Killzone SF slides from GG.

I believe so.

MAX PAYMENT · May 24, 2013

So what does 66% difference even mean?
What was the difference between ps2 and Xbox?

More like Freeza Saga Piccolo.

AzaK · May 24, 2013

Thing is, all multiplats will likely look the same in the end.

Daingurse · May 24, 2013

All the DBZ in this thread pleases me.

Man this really is a media machine first, game console second. Hope that slick UI was worth it Microsoft.

Vegeta is a prince? Also he married Bulma, thats pretty much a full time job.

Goku won fighting tournaments and saved the universe.

Vegeta was a prince, why would he get a job?

beside the ones bulma gave him

So silly.

XBox One could be used to monitor your living room (it has been reported that the CIA has accessed webcams on laptops).

He was pretty strong until Freeza did his final transformation.

itsgreen · May 24, 2013

Classic Kotaku, as if the PS4 won't have dedicated resources....

Edit: I apologize to Kotaku and blame OP for being a sensationalist whore.

flippedb · May 24, 2013

Wii U was at 600 Gflops, right? Xboner is coming closer and closer.

GrizzNKev · May 24, 2013

Yamcha shall harness the cloud

soulassssns · May 24, 2013

I bet all the fan boys will believe Kotaku now.

Elwood Blues · May 24, 2013

Is Xbone gonna end up being closer to the WiiU or PS4? This is a serious question.

Vegeta banged Yamcha's love.

But Yamcha tickled that tuna before it got used.

PS4 = Goku
XONE = Vegeta
Wii U = Mr Popo

with hyperbolic time chamber training for a year

Nice gif response.

I wonder how much this will impact games or they'll go for the lowest common between them? The whole thing is going to be messed up if each system can't handle games from other systems.
