At first, I was under the impression that it was a weak GPU. It seems to be in the production process, so the components are what they are. The GPU is supposed to deliver 1.8 - 1.9 TFlops (HD7850-7870), but I doubt whether it can really be as good as one of those graphics cards and whether that pipeline can handle the performance. And remember, bigger isn't always better... or so they say. So we'll have to wait and see it in action, because since it's a somewhat different architecture, I'm not sure if it's correct to compare it to laptop or desktop graphics cards:
Orbis GPU - Compute and pipelines - Besides, there are divided opinions on the matter. Remember that the CPUs are low-power and there are two points that I find very interesting: 1- The production cost is much lower, so we can expect reasonable prices. 2- Low power consumption, not thinking about the environment but what it means: less noise, smaller size and fewer cooling problems. I mean, if something as big as the first PS3 comes out, I'm not buying it, no matter what...
