Xbox One (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/xbox-one/games/12528/xbox-one/) and PlayStation 4 (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/392432/playstation-4-is-official-sonys-most-powerful-platform-ever-launching-holiday-2013/) are a generation more powerful than today's high-end PCs, according to an Electronic Arts exec.

On the comparison between current and next-gen consoles, Teneja believes the new consoles will perform 8-10 times better than the PS3 and Xbox 360.
"These architectures are a generation ahead of the highest end PC on the market and their unique design of the hardware, the underlying operating system and the live service layer create one of the most compelling platforms to reimagine game mechanics."
Similarly, Avalanche Studios CTO Linus Blomberg said in March that the PlayStation 4's 8gb RAM will ensure it will "out-power most PCs for years to come. (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/395260/avalanche-studios-exec-ps4-will-out-power-most-pcs-for-years-to-come/)"
