40GB PS3 Uses 65nm Cell - cooler, quieter and cheaper to play


German site Computer Base reveals that consumers giving up backward compatibility on their 40GB PS3s are actually getting something in return. The 40GB systems are following the Xbox360's lead by utilizing the new 65nm version of the Cell processor, lowering the power usage from 200 watts to 135 and further reducing the heat and noise the system gives off.

With both the Xbox 360 and PS3 now having the cheaper, more efficient 65nm CPUs integrated into their designs, the race to 45nm is officially on. What's next? I have a dream of a day when all little children can play life-sized holographic games projected from the tips of their pens.
