Sony is in development of the yet unconfirmed and unannounced PS4, according to former AMD employees. Also according to them, the Graphics card (GPU) is being developed by AMD.

AMD already has its graphics card technology in the XBOX 360, while the PS3 is using Nvidia technology. If Sony do chose to switch to AMD, it will deal a stinging blow to Nvidia. Nvidia profited largely from PS3 sales, and the loss of its share of console graphics could place it in a bad position. The PS3 uses a 550 Mhz Nvidia graphics card, which is standard within all its consoles.

Both Sony and AMD declined to comment on the project, with Sony Chief Transformation Officer George Bailey even refusing to acknowledge the existence of the PS4. My guess is it will be announced at E3 this year or perhaps next, along with the new 'Kinect' type motion camera. However, at AMD analyst day last month AMD said that they would we getting into gaming much more, which will drive revenue growth.

Here is an interesting video from IGN discussing the possibility of the PS4 and XBOX 720 being shown at E3:



With the PS3 nearly at its end days, I think the PS4 will be released within the next 2-3 years. What do you guys think about all this? Do you prefer Nvidia or AMD? Post below and as always have a nice day.

great! another thing to waste 600USD on!
i do like the switch to AMD though.

AT LAST! i say ATI is ALWAYS better than Nvidia!!

Didn't Sony already say PS4 was NOT going to be revealed at the next E3?

I believe it was stated by the CEO of Sony himself....

lol :dumb: thats far haha they have said things before and lied about it it just keeps ppl wanting more then when they do show it gains more sells

Good for AMD they dropped there CPU line because they weren't making much profit on it and now they just got Sony to use there GPU. Profit $$$

Thanks for the little bit of credit Pumpkin :dumb:

And don't think I don't know the rules. I know News is allowed to repost.
I'm just saying, a little bit of recognition would have been nice.

They are doing it to cut costs. Nvidia is always the better solution when it comes for GPU's but they always cost more.

I didn't even know those threads existed.

Its cool Don't worry about it :y:
