lock if old,

2Gb of DDR3??? I honestly didn't know about it. On the road, typing hard....

fixed, Gb, not GB apologies

Chuck Norris · Nov 15, 2013

What's the DDR3 RAM for?

Doc Evils · Nov 15, 2013

10GB ram in total?

gigaton

Probably for the low power processor.

Memory for background chip.

2Gb [gigabit] = 256 MB [Megabyte]

Code numbers - the only thing that turns on engineers.

The thing actually has 10GB of RAM? Whaaaaaaaaaaat

More like 8.25 GB.

MrBambinoDent · Nov 15, 2013

Wow, another 2Gb of RAM!!

Ostinatto · Nov 15, 2013

PS4 has 8GB GDDR5 + 2GB DDR3 SDRAM ?

The background chip is a Cell.

It needs 2 GB of RAM because it natively upscales PS3 + Saturn games.

Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew · Nov 15, 2013

Why isn't this advertised?

EDIT: Ugh. Nvm. GB vs Gb.

What is this RAM for?

Impeccable · Nov 15, 2013

Secret sauce.

Daedardus · Nov 15, 2013

jiggles said:

The DDR3 is only 256MB

MThanded · Nov 15, 2013

Chuck Norris said:

The secondary processor.

coldfoot · Nov 15, 2013

2Gb DDR3 for background processor = 256MB. That's a decent chunk of memory for a background CPU, the general consensus here was it was an embedded ARMv7 with a few MB of memory. PS4 should be able to do more in the background than initially thought.

klier · Nov 15, 2013

Hmmm

def sim · Nov 15, 2013

guys

Gigabit

if you think of it, small sub-processor in PS4 has the same amount of RAM as PS3.

The extra 2 gigabit I believe for the low power Arm chips. And akin to the ram in your smartphone. Not usable by games.

Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew · Nov 15, 2013

Can you watch porn in PS4? Which website is compatible?

Cringeworthy tbh.

Yeah this is the most misleading thread title ever. For shame.

Kinan · Nov 15, 2013

Its a DDR3-1600(11-11-11) RAM if you are wandering.

Here is the datasheet (PDF).

Do people really not know the difference between GB and Gb?

I Wanna Be The Guy · Nov 15, 2013

shagg_187 said:

You can on PS3, so I assume all the regular sites will work on PS4 too. Even the Vita has porn! Well there's only like one porn site that works on Vita, but yeah.

Ulumsk · Nov 15, 2013

PS4 has a Siamese twin.

I hope you cleaned up after.

Came here for porn, now I'm confused with all this ram talk.

my bad, in a very wobbly train... always thought the background system uses reserved gddr.

That's what she said

It's less about not knowing, and more about it being the internet. You'd see people and articles post the 8GB GDDR5 RAM as 8Gb, so people get used to it that when they see an article saying GB or Gb, it is assumed that both mean gigabyte.

Sleeplessnights · Nov 15, 2013

So the PS4s bundled HDMI is causing the problems at the back port? It would be nice to see how a faulty cable that is pushing the pins looks like.

Genuinely lol'd.

Yu Narukami · Nov 15, 2013

I took off my pants for nothing.

coldfoot · Nov 15, 2013

Is it 256MB flash or 256Mb = 32MB?

satam55 · Nov 15, 2013

What's the SCEI 1327KM44S chip for?

gruenel · Nov 15, 2013

Nice to see they're using high quality capacitors on the mainboard & PSU.

Hydrargyrus · Nov 15, 2013

256MB DDR3 extra??
