Whooooooow!
What happened here?
5 minutes I'm outta the house, and as soon as I come back, this topic has 6 pages! O_O

Anyhow!
I love the Model 3. Can't help it! I love it.


And about the Hikaru-board:
Assuming it's graphic hardware uses a similar design as the one on Model 3... would that even be called a "GPU"?
I mean Model 3 seems to have a ton of ASICS for different functions, and if it is similar on Hikaru (just assuming), it would not be called a "unit", as it is not all united on a chip, right?

Also, I find it hard to believe that Sega's inhouse developers could/would design a "GPU" from the ground up... and why should they?
Just use anything that is available to get the job done... it's not like Hikaru was THAT powerful/special that it would justify all the expenses for a custom made GPU by Sega...
