[quote][size="4"][b]PS3’s GPU is now 45nm: Results in reduced power consumption[/b][/size]

Sony said that the PlayStation 3 Slim would result in the company finding profit on the system. Despite a $100 price drop, the console’s slim repackaging would not only let the hardware break even, but also eventually result in profit for every console sold. Sony may have achieved that, as we can now confirm that Sony has reduced the console’s RSX GPU to 45nm from its previous 65nm chip design.

The advantages of such a reduction in chip size are numerous. A 45nano-meter chip results in reduced power usage, is less likely to overheat and will require less cooling. Though the Yellow Light of Death is not as common on PS3 Slims, the RSX’s new chip size will also reduce such a possibility, making the new model more reliable.

The PS3 Slim model number that now includes the 45nm RSX is CECH-2100A. It features a number of adjoining changes. As is expected, this model’s heatsink has been simplified in comparison to the CECH-2000A (with the 65nm RSX). The new model’s power supply weighs 30g less at 412g and is quite a contrast to the original 60GB PS3’s 815g power supply. The console’s cooling unit has also seen a reduction in weight and size, at 408g compared to the CECH-2000A’s 545g. A number of adjoining chips around the RSX have been removed, no doubt resulting in significant cost reductions.

Japanese website PocketNews carried out the strip down, and also provided a number of power usage comparisons with the previous 120GB PS3 Slim model. The results are as follows:

Model name:__________________CECH-2000A---------------------CECH-2100A

XMB Menu (Still wallpapers)_______76W--------------------------67W
XMB Menu (Main Theme)_________83-86W----------------------71W

A significant reduction of approximately 22 per cent. So not only will the new model reduce costs for Sony, it’ll reduce energy costs for you. Not bad.[/quote]

[quote]beh in base a quel che si legge non mi piace questo:is less likely to overheat cioè è meno probabile il surriscaldamento...mmh e questo..: Though the Yellow Light of Death is not as common on PS3 Slims, the RSX’s new chip size will also reduce such a possibility cioè che riduce la possibilità di un'eventuale ylod ma non la esclude...tutto il resto è un'ottima notizia...[/quote]

Se iniziano o no a rompersi [/quote]

Ma ti riferisci al freeze in-game della console ?

mi è capitato una volta con Uncharted 1, una volta con Uncharted 2 nelle fasi finali, mentre con God of War 3 per il momento nessun freeze.[/quote]

[quote]Qualcuno riesce a fare una tabella di conversione seriale ---> GB ?

Cioè queste nuove a 45nm sono nelle slim in generale?

Edit: Queste 2100 dovrebbero essere le nuove Slim inviate alla FFC mi sa.
Le 2000A e 2000B sono rispettivamente le Slim 120GB e 250GB entrambe con GPU a 65nm.

Quindi quelle a sinistra dovrebbero essere le slim che attualmente abbiamo in commercio, le nuove a destra.

No, si riferisce al problema dell'YLOD che rende la console inutilizzabile. Nella sezione Hardware ci sono vari thread dedicati.[/quote]

[quote]Quindi le 120 e 250 attualmente in commercio hanno il processore a 65nm?[/quote]

[b]The PS3 slim (officially called the PS3 CECH-2000) is the redesigned model of the console, and currently the only model in production. It features an upgradeable 120GB or 250GB hard drive and is 33% smaller, 36% lighter, and consumes 34% less power than previous models.[21][95][96] The cooling system has been redesigned and Cell processor has moved to a 45nm manufacturing process.[97] It sold in excess of a million units in its first 3 weeks on sale.[98]

The PS3 slim also includes support for CEC (more commonly referred to by its manufacturer brandings of BraviaSync, VIERA Link, EasyLink and others) which allows control of the console over HDMI by using the remote control to use as a controller. The PS3 slim also runs quieter and cooler than previous models due to its 45 nm Cell. The PS3 Slim no longer has the "main power" switch (similar to PlayStation 2 slim), like the previous PS3 models, which was located at the back of the console. Support for emulation to play PS2 titles is not present in the Slim version.[21][95] The PS3 slim was officially released on September 1, 2009 in North America and Europe and on September 3, 2009 in Japan, Australia and New Zealand.[21][95][99][100] However, some retailers such as Amazon.com, Best Buy, and GameStop started to sell the PS3 slim on August 25, 2009.[101][102] A 250GB Final Fantasy XIII-themed PS3 Slim which was white in color with pink designs, was officially announced on September 24, 2009 at the Tokyo Game Show as part of a bundle in Japan for Final Fantasy XIII, it was initially revealed in U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) filings as the PS3 CECH-2000B.[103][104] Sony Computer Entertainment Australia also announced later that day that it would be bringing the 250GB PS3 slim to Australia which would be bundled with other games and will not feature the Final Fantasy XIII theme. Although no American bundles have been announced for the 250GB PS3 slim, it will be sold as a stand-alone console (exclusively) in North America.[105][/b]

dubito fortemente che in stand-by consumi 9 watt

sicuramente meno di 1 watt [/quote]

La slim è partita con la CPU a 45nm, ma non la GPU, almeno a detta di Wikipedia:
