I giggled.

There's no way my XBOX 360 will have better graphics than what the 8800 can produce.

The 360 has a system bandwidth of 256 GB/s not graphics bandwidth.

The 360 only has around 18 GB/s of graphics bandwidth.

That bandwidth is only internal to the eDRAM. Someone's been drinking his MS-brand propaganda milk.

Based on your way of thinking: 8800 is a larger number than 360 so that means the 8800GT is better than an Xbox 360!

Every game, because the eDRAM is part of the last stage of the graphics pipeline. But it's a workaround, because the main bandwidth is so low (only 128-bit), so the 360 offloads some of the more bandwidth-intensive tasks to the eDRAM. It doesn't work nearly as well as having a full 256-bit bus to the graphics memory the way REAL graphics cards do.

Haha that statistic was a huge pile of BS from MS. They just added all the bandwidths of the system together to make a completely meaningless number. The EDRAM accounts for like %90 of it.

This is the most pathetic excuse for fanboyism and idiocracy I've seen in a long time.
