Or on the really unlikely, probably never gonna happen end of the list of possible scenarios, they could even up the CPU clock speed via firmware like they did for the PSP.
You think wrong... CPU intensive games are gonna benefit from it. It might not be a lot, but just enough to let them hit a smooth 60/30fps. That's all we need honestly.
Even if some smaller tasks can be offloaded to a 7th core [audio, compression & simmilar stuff], the benefit will still be there.
Now if that CPU ends up in something like the Apple TV (with some additional active cooling) then that cpu could murder Jaguar.
It will not necessarily help with those games in those situations where they are limited by sequential performance though.

Your analysis is spot on. Do you contribute to a tech blog?
It's possible. But I would not expect it anytime soon.
I hope this will help CD Projekt to reach stable 30 fps in The Witcher 3.
Having a CPU that's significantly worse than what's in today's cellphones is a "beast" now?
PS4's APU seems to keep the cooling system busing as it is. Do not expect any clock increases. XB1 did it because of its over-engineered cooling, which in turn was thanks to the rest of the box being really under-engineered.
60fps singleplayer??!Hopefully ND uses that seventh core to make UC4 look even better.

Kinda crazy to be saying something like that when MS did it and now Sony. It's a freaking cpu core that is freed to assist in some way, of course it will do something.I don't think this is gonna change somenthing
I thought they already did this with the last update? Analysis I watched showed the framerate was solid.I hope this will help CD Projekt to reach stable 30 fps in The Witcher 3.
Batman Arkham Knight
Witcher 3 (after latest patch)
Assassin's Creed Syndicate
All already running with better framerate on PS4, so I'm not sure why it needed any help for open worlds in the first place.

You mean anything. And you are right, this isn't going to change anything for your Xbone.
I doubt it would "look" better but you should expect it to flow and move better. Think less framerate drops and smoother animationsHopefully ND uses that seventh core to make UC4 look even better.
The only thing that wold make this better as if the spit take was upscaled

Just out of interest, what is sequential performance?

Core blimey.
How fast the console can accomplish a particular task on a single thread/CPU core. A lot of the time, games run separate threads for things like sound, physics, AI, etc.
Adding another core for games is unlikely to make any of those individual tasks easier to perform, though it may give you better parallel performance where you're accounting for everything that can be done at once.

I think overcomplicated is a great way to describe the X1 I think. Sony got a much better design at seemingly a better price. 8GB Or "luck" withstanding. And Sony even got them jump on them in the software stack mostly. Its to be expected that Sony would be more competent as a hardware company but its jarring how much tbe difference ended up being with them both outsourcing AMD.The X1 had more engineering complication to it than the ps4, because its initial design goals were different for hardware and software (and its memory subsystem was designed as such early on, due to the necessesity of its memory amount. They couldn't rely on sheer luck). There's a reason the chip is bigger, and yet it has less hardware grunt.

MS had to do a lot of catching up to get to this point. Sony I think was much more prepared for this generation.
I don't understand the potential, but can someone post it in Dragonball terms?
Which cellphone cpu is stronger?Having a CPU that's significantly worse than what's in today's cellphones is a "beast" now?
