PS4 sucks. My gaming rig only cost 500 dollars and will beat the PS 5 when it comes out in 2 years, because the PS 4 graphics will look like garbage compared to the wonders that Nvidia has down the pipes. AC Unity looks like a hollywood film on my PC. Bow down to the PC Kings! Intel Core i7-4790K CPU @ 4400.0MHz - 820 XTU marks on HWBOT

It still needs GPU Bandwidth of which the PS4 will have none when taxed out. ACE units will have no effect other than to choke things up more.

But then it’s amusing how Sony fanboys and defenders hang onto GPGPU like “The Power Of The Cloud”. As much as they want it to happen. It’s not going to.

In reply to TheWayItsMeantToBePlayed. The fact is GPGPU runs fine when the Gpu is taxed.It's all about those ACE units and developers coding.

In reply to John Doe. Yes GpGPU would help out a lot,you get something like 10X the performance than the Cpu in physics performance.

In reply to TheWayItsMeantToBePlayed. Eh my 750TI can run PS2 on maxed with minimum frame rate drops even in a large battle.

John, ur theory above was ” I don’t think Direct X allows this, which is why devs aren’t moving things over to the GPU”. Dude, u saw the UbiSoft chart where they show an experiment using GPGPU………on DX11. The same material that displays how the PS4 GPU can draw double the amount of characters than the X1. That theory of why Ubi didn’t use the PS4 GPU for compute isn’t true.

Do u think any of PS4’s exclusives are using GPU compute? And which one?
