My friend is worried.

[ArielAtom]

He has a 660 Ti and he is worried that the PS4 is going to be better than what he has. Will it?

His current setup:
3770k, stock.
Asus PBZ77-V PRO.
660 Ti SC 2 GB.
8 GB 1600.
HX850.

his gpu is much better then the ps4 one, that being said, games created for the ps4 and ported for pc might still run better on ps4

 

[csf60]

PS4 has a GPU a bit slower than the regular 660

He should not be worried at all. Alot of people over estimate the power of amd cpu's, let alone apu's

 

[ArielAtom]

To tell you the truth, I was worried too lol.

 

[csf60]

"Alot" of people "under estimate" them too.

 

[firo40]

lol I guess if your not a hardware specialist but when you look at the statistics of an apu and what it sacrifices compared to a dedicated cpu with a dedicated gpu its not an under estimation at all

 

[drtoast]

the ps4 is based on a custom 7870 design I believe? Or am i confusing the xbone? Either way, thats the hardware the ps4 is stuck with, The standard 7870 is somewhere between a 660 and a 660ti. His pc is on par or slightly better than (just in terms of the GPUthe CPU leaves it in the dust)... but if he was going to buy a ps4? He could use that money and buy a new GPU for the price of the ps4 and put it safely in its place, daring it to try to stand up to the power of pc's again 😉

The PS4 will be switching to GCN meaning it will more power powerful then any current APUs.

A 660ti should still be able to keep up for the most part, but expect console ports to be fairly intense.

 

[firo40]

His cpu is by far more powerfull and his gpu is slightly better so yes it will be ahead and if he feels like buying a ps4 buy a 770 instead and be way ahead of the ps4 in every terms
