Both chips are custom dude, that doesnt mean we dont know the specs.We do.Both parties released the data.PS4 has more shaders and has faster memory(much faster).Xbox one (and yea its called that ,even if you dont acknowledge that fact) has a specialized cache.All in all developers are pretty much saying PS4 is more powerfull GFX wise.
Since when are software developers privy to the internals of hardware architectures... We still don't even have pinouts for CPUs released several years ago. What makes you think Microsoft is going to spill the beans on their hardware, especially since they build their consoles by themselves and you can bet that any outside parties involved in the process has NDAs up the wazoo. Let's face it, Microsoft is not so stupid as to build a console with half the speed of Sony's. Think about it for a minute.
The FACT is you for some unknown reason wanted to spill some hate, all pretty much based on your emotions and delusions.
FACTS:
1)PS4 has a more powerful GPU
2)Xbox one is called ONE not 720
3)AMD APU`s or CPU`s whatever you want to call them, have more powerful GPU`s
1) You don't really know that
2) With all due respect, I'll call it what I choose.
3) Yes, exponentially. But is it a wise business decision to assume that average people are going to sacrifice on-chip cache for something they don't need? Equivalently priced Ivy Bridge/Haswell Pentiums have more cache. So, in a business environment, is it worth it to sacrifice necessary cache for speedier graphics? I think not.
Im no console lover, TBH i hate both because of the way they both treat customers.HOWEVER, sony treats them somewhat better and was the main reason MS HAD TO drop theyre own draconian DRM systems (to some degree).
You're forgetting one thing: Xbox 360 was (and still is) easily hackable to allow bootlegs to be played, and to be played online. This isn't by accident. Anyone who thinks Microsoft is opposed to it is uninformed. In reality, Microsoft is a far wealthier corporation than Sony and that's why they run a business model where paying users effectively subsidize the bootleggers. And even the bootleggers have to pay for Live service. Sony is a Japanese corporation. They have a lot less capital than Microsoft and can't afford to subsidize parasites. PS3 still hasn't been hacked until this day for this reason. And if you doubt this hypothesis, consider that it is now being revealed that satellite providers also 'allowed' their systems to be hacked so-to-speak in orther so that they could gain subscribers. Just like satellite television, Microsoft will allow this to continue, perhaps even with their present-day console, and then effect brutal copy-protection mechanisms to thwart the bootleggers.
So yea.Sony is losing ,AMD is losing on this (they only landed all 3 major consoles...) .And all is well.
He who remembers the past understands the future. AMD has always had poor foresight. They've fallen behind and have been forced to enter niche markets to feed their corporate bloat. This is only an intermmediate stage in a long attrition. They will fall.
