New PS4 Details Revealed

-




Sony have revealed new PS4 details at a GDC panel.


1) The 64-bit x86 CPU provides low power consumption and heat.

The 8 cores each have a single hardware thread and separate 32kb L1 instruction and data caches with a shared 2mb L2 cache.

Multithreading support is made easier with hardware support for atomic operations.

The CPU will have an extended DirectX 11.1+ feature set that includes extra debugging support not available on the PC and will allow developers more direct access to the shader pipeline than on the PS3.


2) The Blu-Ray drive will be up to 3x faster than the one in the PS3


3) Every console will come with a "very large" hard drive


4) Every console will come with a headset


5) The PS4 will record everything by default, requiring no extra work by developers

I purchased Killzone, Call of Duty, Battlefield 4, Assassin's Creed and Need for Speed. New to Playstation was the much touted free-to-play games that were no stranger to PC gamers. Warframe was one of them.
