Handheld's specs comparable to PS3's

Vita RAM confirmed at 512MB

MCV Staff 19th August 2011 Publishing

Sony has revealed some of the internal specs of its PlayStation Vita handheld.

Joystiq reports that Vita will house 512MB or RAM and 128MB of video RAM. That compares to 256MB of RAM in PS3 and 256MB of video RAM.

And while the video RAM is lower, Vita of course has a lower resolution screen and therefore does not have to output the 1080p visuals the PS3 is required to generate.

How costly Vita’s online-focused operating system will be is a matter for debate.

More specs can be found over at MCV.
