Meaning over 100 gb/s transfer. Insanely fast for ddr3, triple the 360 ram speed, but still short of the ps4's 192 gb/s speed for the ram.However were talking double the ram here, 8 vs 4 gb. Furthermore Durango has a SRAM which is at least 256gb/s probably faster and there's 32 Meg's of that. The 10mb of eDRam in 360 was one of the reasons the machine was able to outperform ps3 so how this whole ram setup in Durango works vs the orbis setup remains to be seen. Tbh I'm not sure what's better 4 gigs of screaming fast ram vs 8 gigs of pretty fast ram with a 32meg super charger lol. Too many unknowns to say anything. Orbis isn't even final silicon but I'm confident they will manage 4 gigs when it's all said and done. As for Durango assuming all of what I've read so far is accurate the only question remaining is how big is the os footprint, how powerful is the gpu and how efficient is this unique ram setup going to be vs the more traditional orbis design. So far devs have had nothing but good things to say about both. Next gen is coming! Excited for all 3 new systems (dont forget steam box).One final note. 360 BC is looking likely, just in case anyone was concerned. Orbis BC however is extremely unlikely. Tl:dr still too early to say which machine is better, right now it's a wash pretty much, too early to call need more info.</blockquote>
