    More PlayStation 4 Spec Rumors... Again

    Huh? Are we ramping up the rumor mill on next-gen console specs already? This is like the second or third time this week alone that there has been a speculation story on what the upcoming PlayStation 4 (or PlayStation Orbis) will be like.

    Well, this time it's IGN's turn to get the rumor going. "Sources" have told IGN some potential system specs on the Orbis.

    CPU: Based on AMD A8-3850 (2.9GHz quad-core)
    - Has an integrated APU (Accelerated processing unit) for integrated graphics processing

    GPU: Radeon HD 7670 (DirectX 11 capable, 1GHz clock, 1GB dedicated VRam)
    - This is a rebranded HD 6670, an entry level GPU priced at just $75.
    - The 6670 is also rumored to power the Xbox 720
    - Can play games like Metro 2033 and Crysis 2 on "High" at 1080p at 30fps


    The combo of the dedicated GPU and the APU can be used in conjunction, sort of like a Crossfire setup. IGN notes that the specs above are from information pulled from PC components and that the hardware used in the next-gen PlayStation will be custom created for the console and actual performance will not be identical to their PC counterparts.

    In other news, sources that I've just made up right now have told TGN that the PS4/Orbis and Xbox 720 will both run:

    CPU: Intel i7-3770K (Ivy Bridge)
    - Two of them per console

    GPU: Triple GTX 680's running in SLI
    - Will be water cooled
    - Capable of 3D resolutions upwards of 7680 × 4320 (8K is better than the 4K and 1080p resolutions, duh)

    RAM: 32GB

    Storage: Dual 256GB solid state drives

    Optical media: inPhase Storage (holographic storage media)
    - Upwards of 1TB of storage (515 Gb/square inch)

    Cost: Just $10

    Triple GTX 680? Holy shit. (If it's true.)

      I'm sure you're joking but you did see the line just prior to that list, right?
