Biggest surprise for me during PS4 event has to be "8 GB of unified GDDR5 ram". I went WOW, I could hardly believe. Just a few months ago we were talking about 2GB.
Now this is great proof that rumours about MS spec might as well not be true, because I think only Kotaku recently mention 8GB of ram for PS4 but mostly it was 4GB GDDR.
Rumor about nextbox is 8GB of GDDR3 while 1-2 GB being for Kinect 2. Not only is RAM slower but Kinect seems to eat up a lot.
Nothing is set in stone yet, sony might be lying, while MS final spec might be different.
But if this is all true, does MS have time or is it possible to update and switch to GDDR5?
