New Graphics Chip Finally Makes The Ps3 Profitable by kosovo(m): 8:27am On May 01, 2010 |
When the PlayStation 3 launched in 2006, Sony’s system was packed full of cutting-edge technology. The result? A $600 USD price tag. However, even with such a daunting cost, it was estimated that Sony lost anywhere from $250-$350 with every system sold. Sony’s four-year-old console is finally starting to turn a profit on each unit sold thanks to an updated RSX graphics chip. These new systems feature a couple hardware improvements that make it both cheaper and more power efficient. The models (SKU CECH-2100A) utilize a smaller cooling unit and heat-sink, allowing the system to operate using approximately 15% less power than its predecessors. Sony hasn’t officially said much about their new systems, but they did confirm that the new chip is based on smaller, more cost-efficient 40-nm technology. http://translate.googleusercontent.com/translate_c?hl=en&ie=UTF8&langpair=ja%7Cen&sl=ja&tl=en&u=http://pocketnews.cocolog-nifty.com/pkns/2010/04/post-eed3.html&rurl=translate.google.com&usg=ALkJrhhLMnoaAQiVMj3fWjwTGw7h9nMZOQ |
