The RSX 'Reality Synthesizer ' is a proprietary graphics processing unit (GPU) codeveloped by Nvidia and Sony for the PlayStation 3 game console. It is based on the Nvidia 7800GTX graphics processor and, according to Nvidia, is a G70/G71 (previously known as NV47) hybrid architecture with some modifications.
OtherOS is a feature of early versions of the PlayStation 3 video game console, allowing user installed software, such as Linux or FreeBSD.The feature was removed since system firmware update 3.21, released on April 1, 2010.
The PS3 supports both the USB EyeToy camera/webcam and SOCOM Headset for video and voice chat. A memory card adapter is available so users can copy their old PS/PS2 game saves to a virtual memory card on the PS3's hard drive. [55] The PlayStation 3 can also use Memory Sticks to store and save data for PlayStation and PlayStation 2 software. [56]
Amongst the notable discrete graphics card vendors, ATI Technologies — acquired by AMD in 2006 and since renamed to AMD — and NVIDIA are the only ones that have lasted. During 2022 Intel entered the discrete GPU market with the Arc series and has three more generations confirmed on two year release schedules.

Some graphics cards had a workaround that involves re-flashing the graphics card's BIOS with an older Gen 1 BIOS, however this effectively made it into a PCI Express 1.0 card, which is unable to utilize PCI Express 2.0 functions. This could be considered a non-issue however, since the card itself could not even utilize the full capacity of the ...
All cards have a PCIe 2.0 x16 Bus interface. The base requirement for Vulkan 1.0 in terms of hardware features was OpenGL ES 3.1 which is a subset of OpenGL 4.3, which is supported on all Fermi and newer cards. Memory bandwidths stated in the following table refer to Nvidia reference designs.
The CPU core is a two-way superscalar in-order RISC processor. [3] Based on the MIPS R5900, it implements the MIPS-III instruction set architecture (ISA) and much of MIPS-IV, in addition to a custom instruction set developed by Sony which operated on 128-bit wide groups of either 32-bit, 16-bit, or 8-bit integers in single instruction, multiple data (SIMD) fashion (e.g. four 32-bit integers ...
