With AMD offering developers so many tools they really believe that AMD inside your consoles will trigger a new era for gaming.

DICE explained some of the advantages for consoles as part of their Battlefield 4 discussion – which include a lower overhead OS, a simpler graphics driver and more explicit controls of system memory.
