So this is on the 1x now too, is that what I'm reading from the fifth or so update?t?

Excuse my hardware related illiteracy but is this

"The GPU churns out 1.71 G Primitives/ second, 41 GTexels/s and the GPU is paired with three sets of ram – DRAM access (CPU Cache Coherent) and 68 GB/s with non-CPU cache coherent DRAM access. The GPU would also have access to high performance eSRAM with a peak bandwidth of 204 GB/s."

I'm reading right now this interview...

The AMD guy said....

Robert Hallock: People often compare the hardware of the next-gen consoles and the PC, compare specs on paper, and conclude that these consoles must be “PCs in a box.” That is patently untrue. While there are many commonalities, there were platform architecture decisions made for the consoles that set them apart from the PC in a significant way: how developers access the hardware, the Xbox One’s ESRAM, and the PlayStation 4’s UMA are all powerful examples of such decisions.

so we basically know that the PS4 has hUMA or some form of it while the Xbox One does not... we also know that the PS4 has a custom version of Derict X in it compared to the Xbox one which helps in shaders etc... I'm I correct of wrong?

PS4 doesn't use directX at all. Sony's PS4 utilizes its' own two APIs. PSSL which is high level and is equivalent to DirectX 11.2+ and a more low level API LibGCM.

While in terms of software it didn't use the hardware is full DirectX compatible... all features set in the latest DirectX are presents in PS4's GPU.

I never created a thread... if someone has the kindness to do this I would appreciate.
