10% more power that the developers can leverage


Microsoft has decided that it will allow developers to access a pool of GPU power that was previously reserved for Kinect and app functionality. While this conservative 10% time-sliced reservation will be able to be leveraged to give developers more processing power, it isnt clear how soon exactly Microsoft will actually left the restriction. 

It is difficult to know exactly if this will allow Microsoft to be able to boost the GPU speed beyond the current 853MHz that is believed to be the current speed that Microsoft has opted for after testing. In addition Microsoft is planning to open the GPU reservation time to allow developers additional flexibility, but a time table of exactly when this will be able to be used by developers isnt yet clear.

Read more here.

As if it will matter when compared to the PS4..  Good luck with your bragging rights over WiiU games, Lems.

Lol another Leadbetter spin. Shame all this is is optimisation allowing more resources to go back to games, pretty much what everyone expected and what Sony will also be doing.

Wow! Any good news about the XBOX ONE and the cows jump all over it and ridicule it. They are obviously scared of the XBOX ONE's potential. On the other hand, I am getting both consoles (XBOX ONE and PS4), and I am quite sure they will end up being equally powerful machines. But I will give props to the XBOX ONE where props are due, and it's a very impressive machine!

Nope. As long as the PS and Xbox brands exist, cows vs lems will be the main battle :P. PS4 being more powerful isn't going to change that. Afterall, there is still who has more/better games and scores to argue about. The Nintendo console will be mostly ignored by raging cows and lems, but they will join together to laugh at it at times even though it is a more than capable competitor as far as games are concerned.

So it's going to be pretty much like this gen was imo, except the PS4 is going to be a bit more powerful than XB this time.

I see Richard Leadbetter keeps advertising the xbox one with bullshit claims. I thought Kinect was "part" of the xbox one experience.

I haven't been paying attention that much as I'm just a sucker for shiny new stuff so I will own both a PS4 and xone (I just can't call it xbone). But I must say that of the videos and games I've seen of the xone they look much more fun and visually speaking overall look better than what the PS4 is offering. Now this may change later but right now I don't see it. Also it's quite immature of you to poke fun at the wiiU because historically Nintendo has always brought the goods. The games are just pure fun. I can tell you that I will be playing my WiiU more than my PS4 this holiday. As a matter of fact I'm not even sure why I'm getting a PS4 right now because there's barely any good selection except for killzone.

Refer to prototype-7850 with 12 CUs @860Mhz vs retail 7850 with 16 CUs @ 860Mhz.

Ryse looks better.   Just funny with all that powah that sony cant show it where it counts.  Games make cows insecure.  Are you buying knack?   At least you will have more money in your pocket than I.   About 4 games to get for xbox one at launch, I know u cant say the same

Ryse doesnt look better, id expect it to look better because its a linear game but it doesnt even, please tell me you havent seen 1080p KZ SF multiplayer footage? what resolution is Ryse running at now? im not sure of the resolution Ryse runs at... to be honest i am not really interested in both consoles exclusive launch lineups but KZ SF actually looks pretty good to me, Knack im never buying, Driveclub kind of reminds me of PGR on the old Xbox which is a good thing... im going to be buying BF4, CoD Ghosts, Watch Dogs, NBa 2k14, all these games this holiday season. i dont really like the ps4 launch exclusive lineup much or the xbox one lineup much at all, but KZ SF looks to be a great game imo, im excited for all these multiplats coming out this holiday season (BF4, ghosts, 2k14, watch dogs, etc.) thats what i am really excited about, and i think that ps4 will probably run these games slightly better then the One

Even if this does happen it's really not that much, at least not on paper. Fact is that we have the new console coming out in a month and a half, I highly doubt any sort of hardware modification will happen between now and then.

Ryse looks better.  I have seen everything.  Shadowfall is more techincally impressive due to resolution and frame rate at 60 unstable on multiplayer.   Its hard to compare like you said but ryse is a showcase in its own right.  Problem with shadowfall is it looks extremely generic and anyone who has seen titanfall just forgets about killzone.   Ps4 is going to have to live on multiplats but that only takes you so far.  Right now sony is getting its ass handed to them in the games dept.   You do have indies I guess lol.    Hope we see some powah on the ps4 that supports all these sony fans claims.  Because if it isnt aboit games, well then sony has no chance.  Everything media online related goes to the software behemoth msft.
