Is it supposed to be surprising that mobile hardware of this year beats console hardware that's going on eight years of age?

I would say its just pathetic, bragging about a mobile processor outperforming 7 year old hardware.  Well congrats Nvidia

lmao

nvidia is mad because no console maker wants their GPUs.

Yes it is. Or don't you think playing games with Killzone 3 like graphics on your phone isn't impressive?

No suprise. A present day device that costs £500.00 odd for an unlocked version is more powerful than an 8 year old devise that costs a third the price.

The big difference is that mobile devises such as smartphones are way smaller than a Xbox 360 or PS3 and they run on a battery, so having the same processing power as a Xbox 360 or PS3 on a smartphone is pretty damn impressive.

Yeah, I read the article and I didn't get the impression that they were "bashing consoles;" it seemed more like they were just using console quality as a reference point. People know what kind of graphics quality they can get on a PS3/360. When you say that your mobile processor can produce console like quality, people immediately get it. That's all I took from it at least. 

Ok? They will beat out last gen consoles....That's cute. What about the PS4 and Nextbox?TheWalkingGhost

Yet I haven't seen one game on the iphone that takes advantage of all this supposed power. Alot may look amazing but they have the depth of a god dam puddle.

Its actually a bit weird seeing the guys at Nvidia act like this.

Butthurt and Jelly certainly applies to their recent behavior, but why?  This is like watching some 5 star chef throw a tantrum because hes somehow jelly of the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds.

I mean wtf?  Snap out of it Nvidia.

They probably thought with the state console gaming is in right now that it wouldnt be profitable in the long run. The console has to be a success for them to make any decent profit before price cuts and considering whats going on with the WiiU right now it looks like Nvidia may have made the right decision. Hopefully AMD survive this. It would suck if the only thing we had was Nvidia, as no competition means their prices will likely go up.

Nvidia is so butthurt that jelly is coming out in force.  Am I doing this right gaiz? 

Though honestly Nvidia is known to overhype their products. Sometimes they deliver and sometimes they don't... well and mobile phones aren't going to replace PCs or consoles anytime soon, especially with the way they're supported with toilet game experiences. 

Nvidia are scared

Phazevariance

Well that's true.  I understand that they would feel bitter and all, but its a business.  You would think that 1.  They wouldn't make their butthurt so publicly viewable and 2.  They would just get over it and keep pushing forward.

Crying about and dwelling on problems doesn't really help an individual, so of course its not helping a corporation.

I dunno.  It doesn't bother me, but it just seems really awkward of them.

How the hell ios this bashing anything? Guy is just stating a fact. When stating fact is a problem for you, the issue lies with you, NOT the facts.

Seriously? They are selling these things, a comparison with current gen consoles seems  like a great way to get accross their power, no?

People hear: more powerful than an Xbox 360, or 250 Stream processors at 800 Mhz!

Which are people going to intuitively understand more?

Yeah if you read... in the distant FUTURE mobile phones will be able to have this GPU... in the future yeah one day. And when they do its not like people will be playing games that look as good as PS3 games so... whats the point? I game on consoles not phones... bring on PS4 :D

Kinthalis

then again the fact they dont list any of the downsides to how high powered devices absolutely munch through batteries like a stoner on the munchies makes it a bit of a moot point in my book sure its all dandy we have that power in smaller devices but man do smartphones eat batteries.

This  is non- news.

Some time in the future mobile graphics technology takes over 7 year old console technology. Obviously that was going to happen. Then after that some point in the future before this mobile graphics chip goes on sale to the consumer they need to solve heat and power consumption issues. ORLY !?!

Btw I'm typing on my 4 year old laptop that has an Intel Core 2 Duo processor. In my jacket pocket is a Note 2 with a quad core processor. I know there is still a gap in performance but this achievement is much more impressive than the trash talk above which is yet to happen and imo not likely for 1 to 2 years more.

I prefer NVIDIA to AMD but this is stupid. They need to fire their PR team.

maybe its because i'm not a fanboy but I didn't see where they were bashing the console market...

Meanwhile, at Nvidia HQ

Act like what ... ? The only thing in that article is a statement from the Vice President of Content & Technology for Nvidia, saying that the next batch of phones will outperform these two consoles. The reason for their mention is because the HD twins are popular. It doesn't matter how outdated they are, they're relevant now .

There's so much sh*tty exageration in this thread due to the thread title solely created to get hits, that it's funny.

It wouldn't beat AMD Xenos i.e. SGX 554 MP4 has 76.8 GFLOPS.

Saying the PS3 is a better console than the 360 is still bashing the 360, even though its true

:P

NVIDIA is butthurt because none bought their GPUs for next-gen consoles. I didnt hear NVIDIA say anything bad about consoles pre-released before... WE all know why.. They act like butthurt kiddos even if they making huge profits. What its sad though is that they trying to hit AMD under the belt with this bashing/marketing trick... Like NVIDIA is the only worthy and TRUE PC gaming solution VS AMD that are somewhat (traitors is not the right word but you get what i mean ) traitors to PC gaming and all these craps.AzatiS

Eh? AMD advances the X86 ISA which underpins the X86 PCs and has the backing Intel's Havok Physics GPU (GCN).

UPDATE: I did finally get an answer from Gearbox about the slow downs we were seeing on the AMD results. Apparently when larger collections of PhysX simulations are running on the CPU, those threads can take quite a bit longer than they would when running on the GPU. As a result, the CPU (and rest of the game engine code) becomes "blocked" waiting for a single thread to finish, which results in the lower CPU utilization we saw on the AMD results as well as the lower overall performance. Because PhysX is an NVIDIA engine, even if Gearbox chose to they likely couldn't add in additional multi-threaded capabilities to the PhysX code path so the slow down here is likely to stay.

NVIDIA gimps PhysX X86 CPU edition with a single thread version. NVIDIA is making multi-core X86 CPUs look bad.

Intel will make sure NVIDIA's PhysX is minimised from the X86 PC market.

Tell Nvidia they can stop whining about consoles when they give us all $1000 GPU's :P

they better they are like what 7 years old now?
