[Evolution_1ne]

so all your rumors are now confirmed

nothing has changed

[gembel]

8gb DDR3 according to Engadget

 

[Reiko]

*Eats crow*

My source told me Xbox One would have 12GB or RAM

 

[artist]

Paging Reiko.

 

[Deku Tree]

What are the specs on the CPUz?

 

[Wishmaster92]

The cod game looked average...... Diminishing returns.

 

[DaBoss]

They didn't go into the specifics.

 

[sechsterangriff]

That thing is even bigger than the Xbox.. one?

 

[Deleted member 57681]

I just heard photons and rocket science. SOLD!

 

[kharma45]

*Eats crow*

My source told me Xbox One would have 12GB or RAM

8gb DDR3 according to Engadget

It'll be interesting then what they do for VRAM, that 12GB figure could well come true. Wouldn't be surprised to see 4GB GDDR5 alongside that 8GB system memory.

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

Without enough specifics, it is hard to get excited.

 

[Maximilian E.]

Nothing from the GPU then?
so most likely, it is a 12 CU 800Mhz solution?

 

[BadAss2961]

The cod game looked average...... Diminishing returns.

CoD was basically what it should've looked like on PC throughout this gen.

 

[Risk Breaker]

Seems to me like the 1.2TF rumours are real.

Also, 40nm? Isn't PS4 28nm? Welp.

 

[lherre]

*Eats crow*

devkits != retail consoles ...

 

[nelsonroyale]

8gb
5 billion transistors.

Very vague, I think it will pretty much conform to the rumoured specs. Honestly, funny to give transistors as a major part of the specs. I guess they had one aspect they trumpet over PS4 and decided to put that down. If they were ahead in flops they would have put that rather than transistors I reckon

 

[avaya]

Lottes was right, it'll be a boat anchor.

 

[Man]

All hardware leaks basically confirmed true.

The PS4 officially has a 50% more powerful GPU and drastically better RAM solution.

 

[kharma45]

Seems to me like the 1.2TF rumours are real.

Also, 40nm? Isn't PS4 28nm? Welp.

It is yes.

All hardware leaks basically confirmed true.

That remains to be seen.

 

[iamvin22]

that console looked huge next to keighly.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

8GB DDR3. Good show. Here's hoping the split between OS and gaming is decent enough, especially with all the seamless and Cable Box features.

 

[sTeLioSco]

no mention of GPU in a console reveal?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[malfcn]

I kept hearing Reiko's name on Gaf, but nowhere else. Was Reiko supposed to be our insider?

 

[Valnen]

Seems to me like the 1.2TF rumours are real.

Also, 40nm? Isn't PS4 28nm? Welp.

I think the reason they didn't really give numbers was because the 1.2 TF rumor was indeed true and they didn't want to look weaker than PS4 for their big unveiling.

They also didn't mention the whole no used games thing which is now confirmed. Edit: (or not)

 

[dbztrk]

I am underwhelmed.

 

[kharma45]

Xbox One will not function without Kinect connected, confirms Microsoft UK

 

[4lejandro]

It'll be interesting then what they do for VRAM, that 12GB figure could well come true. Wouldn't be surprised to see 4GB GDDR5 alongside that 8GB system memory.

lol, and you think they wouldn't have let us know?

 

[BlazingDarkness]

SPECIAL SAUCE?

 

[Reiko]

PS4 ~3 billion transistors
HD 7970 4 billion
Xbox One ~ 5 billion

Whatever that means.

 

[ThisWreckage]

All hardware leaks basically confirmed true.

The PS4 officially has a 50% more powerful GPU and drastically better RAM solution.

Yep and everyone kept on telling themselves that Microsoft was drastically going to change the hardware at the last minute...which is damn near an impossibility given the cost. It's underpowered.

 

[Xamdou]

No GPU specs is so disappointing, I guess they thought just showing the system itself was enough.

 

[chogidogs]

That guy from Blizzard said 8gb DDR5! He said DDR5!

 

[Ahasverus]

I can't help but feel much of that memory is getting eaten by that tv kinect crap. And if it's DDR3.. oh god. All the games shown were daaamn underwhelming.

 

[Felix Lighter]

It'll be interesting then what they do for VRAM, that 12GB figure could well come true. Wouldn't be surprised to see 4GB GDDR5 alongside that 8GB system memory.

I'm fairly certain if they had an additional 4GB of GDDR5 in the box they would have mentioned it or at least stated that it had 12 GB of ram total. I could be wrong but I'd be extremely surprised if they simply didn't mention 4 GB of additional VRAM.

 

[Proxy]

Welp, the next Xbox is weaker than the PS4. I guess the 3GB reserved for the OS is most likely true as well.

 

[JaggedSac]

They certainly glazed over the specs, lol. Actually spent more talking about Kinect specs than the actual system.

 

[sTeLioSco]

That remains to be seen.

so ms built a more powerful system but didn't said anything?

denial.

 

[luoapp]

No power brick?

 

[godhandiscen]

SPECIAL SAUCE?

The 3 OS's. FML.

...40nm?

Isn't PS4's 28nm?!?!?

Thanks for posting this fellow GAFfer.

 

[Dennis]

Unless we get new info this looks like a piss poor console more suited for entertainment center nonsense.

 

[1st Course]

PS4 ~3 billion transistors
HD 7970 4 billion
Xbox One ~ 5 billion

Whatever that means.

Arstechnica commented on the transistors thing:

The reveal has also been big on buzzwords like "5 billion transistors" and "native 64-bit architecture" that don't really mean much without any context, but Wired's Gadget Lab has some more information for us: much like the PlayStation 4, the One uses a custom-designed APU from AMD (hence, 64-bit), and this APU apparently brings the CPU cores, the GPU, the memory, and the other necessary controller chips into a single 40nm SoC (hence the sky-high transistor count).

True, but they can't be using DDR3 as VRAM, it's far, far, far too slow for it.

...40nm?

Yes. Could be for better yields maybe.

*Eats crow*

12gb is in the kits.

 

[Kung Fu Grip]

Seems the original specs were true. That means the PS4 is more powerful.

 

[Kajiba]

Thats alot of ports
