I think the mods get a kick out of watching this stuff sometimes.
They're not the only ones haha.

Why doesn't Sony just tell us how much RAM is available?

Nope. The number is unknown since the numbers in the article are basically confirmed to be wrong.
Get a gaming pc
What now? Shall I pre-order a PS4 again or not?

Does that taste good?
It's such a waste that so much RAM is being used up by the OS in both consoles. I really don't get it.
Does he have sandals on?Reading this thread
I'm canceling mine today, that's at least one available on best buy.
So as Bish has verified filopilo's authenticity, can we assume that DF are wrong on the numbers now?

and socks lol

Why wouldn't Sony comment on the size of allocated memory?
Seems sketchy.
Wheat Free, Dairy Free, Gluten Free?
Nope.
Where did this "1 GB OS , 7 GB RAM" thing came from anyway?
Think of it as a partition. In a PC if you have 8GB of RAM it means the OS can assign up to 8GB of RAM for stuffbut it's usually using much less, say, 1.5GB. But it would be a big problem if you only had 1.5GB of RAM, so you have the extra 6.5GB for when you need itIt's such a waste that so much RAM is being used up by the OS in both consoles. I really don't get it.

.Maybe because they have yet to finalize how much will be available? It's better to wait than to throw out a number that you may have to go back on.

I definitely wouldn't consider that confirmation of anything.
So a confirmed insider (actually one of a few in that thread from yesterday) saying these numbers are flat out wrong isn't confirmation? But some clown on B3D (the article's source) is??I definitely wouldn't consider that confirmation of anything.
End what? Nothing has happened other than GAF flipping a huge one.Sony should end this, all this situation is getting ridiculous at this point.

Well I mean they have a set amount that is available for launch.

It carries more weight than the DF article.
There are many things wrong with this post. Obviously much of the game data is going to be off ram, but the idea is to gave as much IN ram as possible at any given time as it's more efficient and order of magnitude faster than the hdd. It also means you can be less dependant on the HDD or disk which is another advantage.
Also, and lol to this, where the hell does this imply the Gpu is doing nothing but texturing? How on Earth did you come to that conclusion? Do you think texturing is the only ram intensive and requiring task? There are countless things that hog memory. Lighting, geometry, filtering (AA, af) and so much more. As you get more advanced graphical features and more complex world's and models, so too does ram use go up.
You end with saying that modern games will not be able to use that much ram per frame. How wrong you are. Crisis 3 at 1080p with ultra settings and high end filtering solutions already takes up, up to 3gb of vram. Future games will gobble up 5gb like candy. Stop looking at current gen games as a means to predict the ram consumption of future next gen games, which will be considerably more demanding and advanced.
So if this 4.5 malarkey is true, does that mean Sony lied? I certainly think it would paint them as disingenuous.

Don't associated that ill logic with GAF primSo a confirmed insider (actually one of a few in that thread from yesterday) saying these numbers are flat out wrong isn't confirmation? But some clown on B3D (the article's source) is??
GAF, you so crazy.
This is hilarious.So if this 4.5 malarkey is true, does that mean Sony lied? I certainly think it would paint them as disingenuous.
So you can feel the need to upgrade every 2 years
