Here is a summary: If you want the full version, then I’ll give it to you.

* Raw processing power is not the only constraint on system performance. Two processing cores sharing the same system bus and memory bandwidth limits the real-world performance advantage. Even in theory, a dual-core system cannot achieve more than a 70% performance improvement over a single core, and in practice, will most likely achieve less.

Think about this. We know that having 1 core would mean 100% yield. 2 Cores would have 170% yield. Multiply that by 70% (.7). The general formula for it is.

1-Core=100 which is 1.0GHZ
2-Core=170 which is 1.7GHZ (times 170%)
3-Core=219 which is 2.19GHZ (7/10 times 7/10=49/100]
4-Core=253 which is 2.533 GHZ (7/10 times 7/10 times 7/10= 343/100]
5-Core=277 which is 2.7731 GHZ (.7 x .7 x .7 x .7= 2401/10000)
6-Core=294 which is 2.94117 (.7 x .7 x .7 x .7 x .7=16807/100000)
7-Core=306 which is 3.058819 (.7 x .7 x .7 x .7 x .7 x .7=117649/1000000)

It took me half an hour to reach that conclusion... and basically, 7 cores offer 3 times as much processing power as 1 core, because of efficiency and bottlenecks.

The GC had 2 cores and the PS2 1, I think.

The GC is how many times more powerful than the PS2?

are u talking about the ps3s cell with its 8 spes or wat eva. cus the way they work is individually. like one core for graphics, one for clearer sound, etc

Gamecube had one core with nearly twice as power as the PS2 Core.


PS3 Fan Ultimate- I don’t think you know what you are trying to state. Sound is related directly to compresssion, and the PS3 WILL have superior sound to any other because of BluRay Capacity
