" The Console: The PlayStation 4 will be powered by chips that would make any top-of-the-line PC user drool: A "supercharged" eight-core x86 processor, a PC-style graphics processor, and a stunning eight gigabytes of RAM.
With these guts serving as the PS4's central brain, the console is capable of pushing graphics at 4K resolution, or supporting stereoscopic 3D in full 1080p for high definition televisions. That means it'll likely be ready for the next five to 10 years of living room display technology. "
