What is the difference anyway?

I dont know for sure, but I think there is no difference between the power of a 90nm chip and a 65nm (correct me if I'm wrong). The difference however is the heat produced by the two chips, where the 65nm has sufficeintly lower heat emission and less power consumption. For a console like the 360 though that was an one way road for MS, but still the proplems persit... Now when it comes to the ps3 and its proven reliability epsecially to its heat disfusal capabilities, I think unless it offers more power then it is not actually needed in a ps3 at this moment. But saving a few bucks on power whould be nice too.

Ignore the additional 'h' in the word would :)

Yes, only benefits are less power and lower cost to produce. MS was moving to 65nm chips anyway because they are cheaper to make. And I find your "but still the proplems persit" comment pretty funny, and nice spelling BTW. I haven't heard about any 65nm 360 failures. I'm sure they would be top news if there were any.

Halo 3 360

I thought they used 65nm chips. And I f they do, I have seen RROD on them already

Well

Its true that PS3 doesn't need the small chips but saving some bucks is a good idea though. I haven't heard any news on 360 having problems. But if thats true than that sucks. Im still thinking of getting a 360, maybe in a few months time.

meh

im pretty sure i have read the news about the new halo theme xbox 360 having 65nm chip and still having RROD. http://forums.maxconsole.net/showthread.php?t+82016 http://www.qj.net/Red-ring-sighted-on-Halo-3-limited-Xbox-360-consoles/pg/49/aid/103743 http://www.boxxet.com/Xbox_360/Image_First_case_of_Xbox_360_65nm_CPU_GPU_Falcon_RROD.17d5x6.d

I wonder how they lowered power consumption by 60 watts without changing the chips. The old design must have been wasteful. I don't care too much about that. This makes me happy I have the best version, the 60gb one. With fewer vents and smaller heatpipe, has cooling been reduced? That's what I heard anyway.

cheap hmmm interesting?

it basically the 20 gb ps3 but without the backwards capability. but it has wi-fi i think and 20 extra gb. This is basically a console for people who arent going to be playing old ps2 or some psONE games anymore.
