Factor 5's "Lair" on PS3 has an absolute DOG **** framerate thanks to the lowend Nvidia GPU
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=176336
quote TTP: "Just got the *preview* code and spent some time with it in the comfort of my sofa and I must say the frame rate is all over the place. Didn't give me this impression at all at E3, but here, in a more intimate environment, me and him alone, the times where it stays at 30fps are so few they don't even matter. Factor 5 either screwed big time or this version is as old as baby Gesus" unquote once again, the choice that Sony made to use a lowend Nvidia GPU in PS3, the RSX, which is based on a DOWNGRADED NV47 / G70 ~ GF 7800 or G71 ~ GF 7900 with miserable fillrate performance ( 2 Gpixels/s with 4x anti-aliasing) combined with low graphics memory bandwidth (22.4 GB/ sec to GGR3) combined with low triangle setup rate performance (about 250M vs 500M on X360) results in PS3 games with ****ty framerates when overtaxed by 1080p resolution and too much graphics detail. it's bad enough that console GPUs are set in stone for the 5-6 year life of the system, it's worse when a GPU *starts* out being lowend **** at the *beginning* of the console's lifecycle. |
