AMD teases PC chip based on PS4 APU

Sony's upcoming PlayStation 4 console will feature an AMD APU that combines eight Jaguar CPU cores with integrated Radeon graphics and a shared GDR5 memory interface. The chip has also been infused with Sony technology, although it's unclear to what extent. In a discussion with the Inquirer, AMD VP of Global Communications and Industry Marketing John Taylor said the Sony tech will be stripped out for a version of the APU that will be sold to consumers this year.
