btw , do the current 40 GB using 45nm chips?
Is it worth to get PS3 now?, Or should I wait next year?

Though the price for 40 GB is as low as RM 1200-RM 1350, has dropped almost 100% if you compare to early 2007. My question is will it continue to drop further? My target is RM 1000 for 40 GB standard pack, possible to occur in next year? 75% of the reason I wanna buy PS3 is for FF13 and upcoming God of War 3. Burnout Paradise is quite tempting but I can wait for it. FF13 won't be out at least until end of year.

There will be further reduction, that's for sure.
And since the game you are waiting for is not out yet, it's best to wait. |

Burnout Paradise is quite tempting but I can wait for it. FF13 won't be out at least until end of year. Price will drop, but I don't think it will go any much lower than it is already currently for the rest of the year(unless Sony cuts the price of the 40GB again).btw , do the current 40 GB using 45nm chips? The 40GB PS3 uses 65nm chip for its Cell architecture and 90nm for the RSX. Originally, both were 90nm variants. IBM has already started development on 45nm Cell and RSX is said to be receiving 45nm treatment in 2009. |
