3Dude, Orion's posts are improving and I think you should stand back and listen. You are probably right about some things, but you seem to think you have a higher opinion than everyone else, when you're arguing for the slowness of a system. Beyond3D is full of people who appear to know their stuff but are rarely right.

No, the content of his posts have not been improving, his social skills (in this language) have. Which is cool, I have mad respect for people who can speak multiple languages, but math and logic are what matter here, and they transcend languages.

The ones who are right on beyond 3d, are ALWAYS right, because they actually have an education. If you share that education, even a little, you can instantly seperate the posters on beyond 3d.

I hold opinions based on education and backed by computer science degrees higher than idle opinions and group think.

If these people knew what they were talking about, if orion had ANY clue what was going on, then why hasnt he been talking about the slow ram and memory heiarchy like I have been for the past 4 months since it was revealed in an iwata asks?

Yeah thats right. Nintendo flat out said, and I quote 'low speed high capacity main ram'. Why are they acting surprised? Like this is new information, when it was put out front and center for all to see by Nintendo?

Ill tell you why, because they had no idea what it meant, they are completely clueless about the basic fundamentals of types of system design, memory heiarchy (in fact, despite disagreeing with me, im willing to bet YOU willingly choose to remain ignorant instead of taking the tiniest microcosm of effort to google memory heiarchy. After all, its a lot easier to complain about something or someone than actually doing work to understand what they are talking about. Kids are so lazy these days.)

If orion was capable of anything more than parroting the latest group speak he would have noticed, via his own powers of observation, critical thinking, deduction, and induction, that the ram was low speed, or asked me, during ANY of the topics hes taken part in where i said NO to gddr5 because it would be pointless to have a high speed high capacity ram with the large high performance top tier heiarchy already established, and that thw main memory would be low speed he would have ASKED me how low speed ram could be anything but bad, instead of coveringbhis ears and screaming gddr5 over and over and over again.

And its not just him. Ive seen just near every single person here freaking out over the near half year late 'reveleation' of low speed high capacity main mem COMPLETELY ignoring the very information they are freaking out about now, over the past 4 or so months, instead quoting me and of course, blindly talking about gddr5.

And of course as soon as metroid prime 4 is shown, the 'specs' will shoot back up into the clouds again.

You people do this to yourselves.
