You need to read the article. The guy from AMD contends that PCs need much more hardware power to get the same/better results than consoles and blames directX. Apparently consoles can run 10k to 20k 'draw calls' per frame compared to 2k to 3k for the PC because directX does not allow mutliple objects per call.

That is , if I've got the gist of the article correct.....;-)

This article talks about how, with 10x the power of consoles, PC games only look 1/10 as good due to DirectX.
