I'm interested. How many people have a computer thats got a better GPU than the PS4's at the moment?

If people are willing to disclose with pictures, etc.
 
I can guarantee that 99% of people here do not have a GPU better than the PS4.

Lambs has two Titans in SLI however.

I agree. Even amongst the gamers it wont be a huge number..

Funnily enough, guess what my GPU is. I thought the one the PS4 uses sounded familiar..
 
You have something in the ballpark!

He was guessing mine I think, and yup.

Some people I know do have far better GPU's than the PS4 though, but those are the "pro gamers".

Edit: Might not be that techrader version. This one:

Edit x2: CPU is the 3570k for those interested.
 
It's more or less what the PS4 GPU is, but they capped it in terms of bandwidth to 176 on a 256bit bus. It was higher than that. Also it's highly customised that it can go through the CPU caches. PC GPUs cannot do that!
 
Can overclock my laptop card (GTX 670MX) and run Crysis 3 on max settings without temperatures getting too high.

Should've included CPUs in the discussion for comedy value. I think my toaster is more powerful than the PS4 CPU.

Now you are being silly! How are you judging the PS4 CPU, on GHz? I'm not happy with it at all, but you are being silly. It also doesn't need to run Windows and a load of other shit in the background.

yeah CPU is the bottleneck looking at the specs.

I have 660TI a year old now but plays everything at 60fps+ on 1080p ultra settings that I thrown at it so far. (only 4x AA though)

I do have an 4.5 ghz overclocked Intel 3770K chip helping it out though.
 
No, I have one.

GPU Brothers.

Getting that picture, I have discovered mine is falling out. Probably happened when I had to remove every piece of my computer 1 by 1 to find out what Windows 8 wasnt happy with.

This is the thing that Cell should have taught people and it's a highly clocked monster. Can you even get an Intel processor with more than 4 cores (hyperthreading does not count)? The whole is greater than the sum of its parts! From what I've read, Jaguar has reasonable SIMD performance for an x86 CPU. Then again on that metric Cell can still blow away a high-end i7.

You have a nice computer. But will Weaste decide it's better than a PS4? And does it matter?
 
My Imac 2012 27 inch has this

3.2GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 675MX graphics processor with 1GB of GDDR5 memory

Have no idea what my Macbook Pro 2012 has. But I don't use both for gaming anyway, more for work and Football Manager.
 
GTX 780M. Can run most games, like BF3 at 1080p and ultra setting with a steady 60+ fps at stock clock and vbios. Some people get 10,000+ scores on 3DMarks11 out of that card which is pretty impressive considering it's a laptop graphics card.
 
That's a lot of oscillation to warm a bit of bread.


Nevertheless, my toaster > the PS4 CPU.

:drool:

Got a new laptop in July (3.8ghz), and already I've saved hundreds and hundreds in a few months on games by...acquiring them via other means. Crazy how much you can get out of stuff like Skidrow and console emulation for absolutely nothing these days.

The PS4 is good value but you can save ungodly amounts of cash with a good PC. As evil as that is...

How so? Or do you just mean better-than-a-steam-sale downloading

560GTX Ti

Need to look at upgrading in the new year

No!

Torrents, Skidrow, ISO websites etc... FM 2014 is already up on Skidrow by the looks of it. :lol:

Just made me think when I was reading about value in terms of the actual hardware of consoles in the other thread. Factoring in single player games (online is often not possible), the value is at least as good in the long run.

Ah yeah. I haven't torrented a game in ages. But then I'm not playing many AAA games on PC, and Steam is awesome.

It's surprising how 'bad' it's gotten. Look at the The Witcher 3 - a huge title that's going to have no DRM. It'll be available for free on Skidrow.

you can but I am yet to see anything need more than four cores.

It could quite easily do everything a shit 8 core CPU could do and still have plenty of spare cycles.

It is a fantastic processor, shits over anything AMD has no matter the core number.

You are living in a dreamworld if you think a ps4 comes anywhere near my pc, even though it is over a year old.

SO yes.

I'm not saying otherwise, my disdain for the CPU in the PS4 is well known. However, it's not running Windows and a load of other shit in the background, and your GPU (the topic of this thread) is not as good as the one in the PS4. So there!

I would argue that, although to be fair the GPU is OK in the PS4 and there would not be much in it although the closest PC version does benchmark a bit lower :D. 5% down on stock, and bear in mind mine overclocks another 10% without breaking sweat.
