Samsung have just announced they are to begin mass producion of the industry’s first 8 gigabit GDDR5 DRAM ram modules, thanks to 20nm process technology. This announcement has sent rumors flying Sony might consider releasing a slim-line version of their Playstation 4 console, but would the news also be beneficial to Nintendo? It’s little.

Nintendo have managed to annoy quite a few people with the announcement of their new handheld device, the rather poorly named “New 3DS”. Aside from the additional controls on the unit itself, there will be additional CPU power in the console, which means games targeting the New 3DS won’t work on your older device..

Since the Playstation 4 or Xbox One’s specs were leaked online both gamer’s and media have placed a lot of their focus on both the resolution a game runs at, along with its frame rate. Much of the the Xbox One vs Playstation 4 debate revolves around resolution and if a game runs at.

An increase in the Xbox One’s GPU performance was recently mentioned on Twitter by Phil Spencer, but the original tweet provided little more than a tidbit of information. Microsoft have since provided much a needed insight to what the update means to the Xbox One and how it will impact the system, developers and the.

Let’s get this over and done with right off the bat, the frame rate of Watch Dogs for both next generation systems is pretty damn impressive considering the shear amount of explosions and chaos often clogging up the screen. While the two versions don’t have complete ‘parity’ neither suffers from extreme slowdown and often.

Minh Le, the creator of the infamous Counter Strike ‘confirms’ that the now meme worthy Half-Life 3 is indeed in development. There have been a few leaks on Source engine 2 and HL3 but little conformation. Right now. Additionally he commented briefly on Left 4 Dead 3, telling the interviewer that the title is looking great. All.

I think it’s pretty much a certainty by now that if you’re slightly invested in the ‘next generation’ (when is it acceptable to call it current generation?) consoles, you’d have heard of the so called resolution gate issues. To sum it up, the Xbox One is having issues running games at the same resolution.

AMD are one of the biggest forces in next generation gaming right now. AMD are producing the chips for the next generation consoles, the Playstation 4, Wii U and Xbox One. Additionally, the Radeon R9 290X is one of the best GPU’s on the market right now for performance. During their recent CES conference,.

Sony’s Playstation 4 is pretty infamous by now for its memory system. The Playstation 4 sports 8GB of GDDR5 memory, giving a total bandwidth of 176GB/s of unified memory, with a robust bus structure to help send data whizzing around the system. The Playstation 4 wasn’t always planned to have 8GB of RAM however..

The Playstation 4’s CPU frequency is still unknown, despite lots of speculation. Sony have remained tight lipped concerning the machines clock speed, with ‘guesses’ ranging from between 1,6GHZ to 2GHZ. Just a few days ago, I ran with a piece of news discussing the performance of texturing using the “Substance Engine”. Allegorithmic’s middleware engine.

The Xbox One has just been released to the world, and already there are a few reports popping up across the internet which show off problems with the machine. The good news is that the machine powers on okay, indeed – the issue seems to be a mechanical fault in the systems Blu-Ray drive..

Now that the Playstation 4 has been released we have a good understanding of what lies inside the machine. In this article we’re going to be taking an overall look at the PS4’s internals and doing an analysis of all that lies beneath the black plastic shell. This article links to a lot of other.

The Playstation 4’s audio chip has remained somewhat of a mystery until recently, when during AMD APU2013 conference AMD revealed the PS4’s audio chip is based on their TrueAudio API and chip technology technology. Let’s explore exactly what AMD’s true audio technology is, and how it will benefit not only the PS4 but possibly.

The Playstation 4 version of Assassin’s Creed 4 has been confirmed to run in native 1080P with Anti-Aliasing assuming you download a patch.  This patch will be available to download shortly after the games release, otherwise the PS4 version of AC4 Black Flag will run at 900P. This info has been confirmed at a.
