Microsoft Confirms 53MHz GPU Speed Upgrade For Xbox One

I am a proud 'non tech guy' so I cannot comment about how effective such an increase in speed would effect the overall system performance etc, etc....,
But even I'm surprised by this announcement. Why? It's August. Shouldn't all this stuff have been set in stone months ago if they intend to launch the system by Xmas?!
It feels to me that they are cobbling this system together with gaffer tape literally as it's being wheeled out the door. What on earth is going on over at MS?

Yeah, it was obvious that they were not going to talk about that and were going to focus on things like 5 billion transistors. That wasn't really a good strategy as it only ended up confusing people are raised more questions.

Umm...because it is?
That is why you only listen to what CBOAT says.

lol, nah, keep it up, threads like this and that one make work days fly by, lol
Some people are trying to put negative spin into it and you're replying that there shouldn't be a thread about it. And if a console manufacturer makes last minute changes to the hardware why not make a thread about it? No one pretends it's a megaton.

Well XB1 DRM was restrictive as hell but others had steam style DRM and got torn apart.
I love me some valve games but I am conflicted with steam since I hate me some DRM.

Why only 53 ?
Put a better fan in there and up it to 900 or 1000

Hope they're not doing this against AMD's advice.

Yeah if this was another product you'd stay far away from it as the company doesn't seem to have a plan or clear vision, only in video games would a company get away with it.

Hm, Microsoft really changes a lot of its policies and stuff.
Do you think that all this flipfloping will have a negative impact on the launch and the time after?
I mean, they always say everything need time and it need to be well thought out to work and they're just changing their shit in no time.
I guess we will see some problems because of those changes.

Eh... Yes, if you are already at 1050 MHz, then it's not that more. If you are at 800MHz it's more than the more of your GPU.

53MHz over what? they never announced how much it was in the first place.
we know the detailed info because of insiders, same insiders who told us there was going to be a downclock.
again, 53MHz over what? 800MHz? 750? 700?

I don't understand what you just said here. The main problem a lot of people had was the online requirement. I personally saw it as specifically anti-military. I didnt give a shit about the used games thing.
80% of an additional CU ... :roll:

There's nothing secret-saucy about TU, CU, shaders etc. It's basic GPU specs.

edit: beaten...
It makes you wonder, doesn't it? 53? Was 54 too much? Can anyone with more hw experience speculate as to why such an odd number? (It's killing the OCD part of my brain)

Didnt he say specifically that they bumped it from 800mhz to 853mhz? Seems pretty clear.

600% cloud KI + 53Mhz + 10times the power of Xbox360 multiplied with over 5 trillion transistors.

If true, then it can be a balancing thing.
To more fine-tune everything.
This is really nothing new.. Nintendo did it with Gamecube, Sony with PS3 and of course, MS with OG XBox..
But I dont think that MS would make an announcement for this, that sounds odd considering that they have not gone out with specifics of the tech...
what we know is from the leak, nothing is official from MS besides the 8 Core CPU, 8GB Ram and 500GB HDD..

If there was more, the Gamespot article would've covered that imho.

Cannibalism tsk tsk.
Can someone who knows explain how they arrived at such an odd number?? I mean a 53 ghz increase sounds like they were creeping the thing up bit by bit till it broke, then moved down 1ghz.
Does this mean the thing was not in production yet until these changes? I guess they can patch it in since it requires an internet connection to make it work.(there will be many uninformed consumers who have a crappy christmas morning due to this...cause people are dumb)
Part of me thinks they are just trying to pull positive PR out of their asses as well.

clock speeds can be adjusted with firmware updates. they can still be making hardware in the mean time.
Fuck kinect soooooo hard until it's rrod.
Weak 'next gen' hardware because that shit is mandatory.
Watched Forza 5......... I'm already playing a better looking game in beta stage called PCars... Once physics are are fine tuned and graphics gets a little more polished there goes my only reason to purchase one at launch... No night or weather are you fucking kidding me? Next gen!

Or just maybe they never announced anything because that part of the hardware was still being tweaked and optimized. The closer you finalize to launch, the better you will understand what the machines can do and where the future of gaming tech will go.
