![]() ![]() Its 3D scanner can identify much subtler movements, and it can recognise voices and faces. ![]() The Xbox One ships with the updated Kinect device, which now tracks six people at once and copes much better with smaller, darker rooms. It's worth reading detailed overview of the technologies at AnandTech, though the exhaustive article points out that the Xbox One architecture is designed with other considerations beyond gaming – especially implementation with other MS platforms – and this shows in the tech specs. Sony's machine also uses 8GB of GDDR5 memory with a bandwidth of 176GB/sec, which should make it speedier than Xbox One with its 8GB of DDR3 RAM (though it commits Sony to a more expensive manufacturing cycle). It's never quite this simple because other design and technical elements of the SoC can affect performance, but it's certainly an indication that there is more graphics grunt there for PS4. The PS4 version has 18 CUs generating 1.84 teraflops of processing power, while the Xbox one has only 12 CUs which, in theory, gives Sony's machine a 50% advantage in terms of raw shader performance (for example, lighting and other graphics effects). The two GPUs employ AMD's latest Graphics Core Next architecture, which is divided into working blocks known as Compute Units. But there are some fundamental differences. Technically, they are hugely similar: eight-core processors (both reported to be running at a frequency of 1.6GHz), custom AMD graphics processors, Blu-ray drives. ![]() They are monolithic, almost architectural, and they are designed to slide in under your living room TV and then command attention from everyone in the room. For this generation we have two rather large slabs of dark plastic, one shaped like an early eighties video recorder, the other slightly slanted to give a hint of dynamism. Well, black is certainly back, as AC/DC once put it. It often indicates a user profile.īefore you start, why not check out what the console makers want you to know about their machines?
