New Playstation 4 tech specs

Playstation 4 is leaked to have AMD's A8-3850 APU and Radeon HD 7670 GPU

800 MHz engine clock
1GB GDDR5 memory
1000 MHz memory clock (4.0 Gbps GDDR5)
64 GB/s memory bandwidth
768 GFLOPS Single Precision compute power
TeraScale 2 Unified Processing Architecture

480 Stream Processing Units
24 Texture Units
32 Z/Stencil ROP Units
8 Color ROP Units

128-bit GDDR5 memory interface
PCI Express 2.1 x16 bus interface OpenGL 4.1 support
Image quality enhancement technology

Up to 24x multi-sample and super-sample anti-aliasing modes
Adaptive anti-aliasing
Morphological anti-aliasing (MLAA)
16x angle independent anisotropic texture filtering
128-bit floating point HDR rendering

When PS4 comes out, the 7670 GPU will be one generation obsolete. The AMD R8000 will be out. I won't have to pay $50 or $60 for DirectX9-like quality which is long overdue. Those people that say graphics quality doesn't matter hate capitalism already. They want the 40,000 Youtube hits to be the NES, SNES, Genesis collections and have certain guarantees not unlike the 1968 Ford Mustangs and other classic cars. Generation Y believes that only owning a large quality of 8-bit/16-bit videogames bring success. We'll see whose right.
