Gamescom: Playstation 4 bietet Unified Memory, Xbox One nicht | heise online

Although AMD hardware is in both next game consoles Xbox One and PlayStation 4, only the Playstation 4 will support hUMA technology for shared memory access. This explained AMD's senior product marketing manager Marc Diana opposite c't at Gamescom. This is likely the 3D performance of the Playstation 4 is still much more put on the Xbox One, as adopted at the current level. AMD finally sees the heterogeneous uniform memory access as the key to the tremendous increase in performance of composite processors. AMD's future desktop processors combined the Kaveri series set on Huma.

Behind the scenes c't could also capture developers unofficial voices that see the 3D performance of the Playstation 4 very far from that of the Xbox One.

Back in April, AMD said manager Phil Rogers opposite c't that Huma specifically designed to accelerate 3D rendering performance, "game developers wanted to use extremely large textures for some years, but until now had to be a whole lot of tricks use, parts large textures to pack into smaller textures. because today must first be in a separate area of physical memory a texture before the GPU can process them. Huma with applications can deal more efficiently with textures. "More details to HUMA want to reveal to its developers conference in November AMD. (MFI)
