Xbox 720 worried: PS4's APU is most powerful ever (Photos)

While the Xbox 720 still remains in the cloud of uncertain, the PlayStation 4 continues to gain momentum, and continuing that trend was AMD who said PS4 has the most powerful APU ever created.

According to a report from VG24/7 on Thursday, AMD global business manager John Taylor talked about how the accelerated processing unit in the PlayStation 4 is the best one AMD has ever created.

"We have not built an APU quite like that for anyone else in the market. It is by far the most powerful APU we have built to date.

"None that will quite be to that level of sheer number of cores, sheer number of teraflops," Taylor said.

Recently, a new Play-Asia listing for the PlayStation 4 has been leaked and spotted.

While the description does not talk about specifics in the way of price or release date, it does talk a bit about what most people are already expecting from the system.

"Lot's of rumours are flying about. Everyone wants to know when the next PlayStation console will come, what enhancements it has and how it interacts with the PlayStation Vita.

"However, everything is till kept under tight wraps.

"The only thing we know is that the graphical capabilities and the CPU will become even more powerful, and the console might have a brand new controller, although the existing six-axis, dual controllers and the Move remain compatible.

"Concrete information will be available once the official sources release them," the description read.
