Nintendo Revolution Specs Hit Net

June 14th 2005 | Games Consoles

Rumoured specs for Nintendo’s Revolution gaming console have appeared - via an ‘insider programmer’ - on blog site Nintendo Centrium:

The specifications.. ..suggest that the system will be powered by two 1.8Ghz IBM PowerPC G5 processors, a 600Mhz graphics chip from ATI and a 7.1 Digital Sound chipset. The console will apparently sport 128MB of high speed 1T SRAM as main memory, along with 256MB of slower DRAM, while the graphics chip has 12MB of on-board high speed RAM. 6GB proprietary DVD-size discs, designed by Panasonic, would be used for Revolution’s games.

The specs differ greatly from a previous "leak" last month, which claimed that the system would have a dual-core graphics chipset and a total of four processing cores, using IBM’s dual-core technology.
