According to VG247, Sony has already sent out development kits for the upcoming Sony PlayStation 4.
There are supposedly four versions of the dev kit, and the one being sent out currently is based on the AMD A10 APU (combining CPU and GPU in one chip), 16GB RAM, 256GB internal storage, a Blu-ray drive and all the same inputs/outputs of the PS3.
The chip being used is said to "run games in 1080p resolution at 60 frames per second in 3D without any slowdown."
Of course, because dev kits are modified PCs, the RAM will most likely be lower in the final product, but even half of the stated RAM would be a huge upgrade from the current generation of consoles.
Other past reports have claimed the PS4 will be be able to run games and videos at 4K.
Sony is expected to announce the console early next year for release before the holiday season.
