Jesus Christ. He continues to have zero clue what he's talking about. Someone tell that idiot that smaller and less complicated APU == less transistors == less heat.
Arthur Gies talks so much shit it's unbelievable, never liked that guy ........... RebelFM or whatever it is / was called could not be listened to for this reason.
People need to wrap their heads around the fact that the more custom the silicon is (esram on the apu) makes it a lot more complicated and a lot more dense in terms of transistor count ........ makes that shit hotter.
PS4 APU is a much more standard variant than the Xbox One APU, it just has a much better GPU.
Also as someone with GTX 670, the gDDR5 on my card does not have any passive or active cooling on it at all ......... and zero problems.
Some crazy myths permeating through this forum that are not helped by that clown and MS shill Gies.
Also the PS4 can still have a large fan based cooling assembly, there are plenty of large, low profile fans around that push a lot of air with little noise.
