They can contract out the Playstation firmware development team to update their console with some stability.

150Mhz CPU boost on XBO, now in production

I don't mind a weaker system, but the price is fucking outrageous XB1 should be starting at $350 with kinect, and $275 without it...

1.31 & 1.84 is just the GPU, the extra is adding the Gflops of the CPU to the total.
I think the best course of action at this point is to simply let the launch speak for itself.
If there are absolutely no production issues and the changes in countries released, for example, are simply localization issues as you've stated, we will see that on the sales data.
Lol at this joke post. This does nothing to change that. Several sources have confirmed production issues and I don't expect you to admit to them. Microsoft isn't known for its honesty. The only way I can see you admitting to such a thing is when you are trying to perfect the Elop effect. Btw, minimal boosts to clock speed is like putting a bandaid over a gash. You should have spent the money on the cup/gpu and not useless info deals and Kinect.
No, Albert .. I just place more trust in Cboat atm. It's not grasping at straws when he doesnt have anything lose, besides his proven track record.
Yes, the ESRAM is embedded in the GPU and works in tandem. It's just that if you are yielding the same amound of chips at 800 or 853, you can always upclock. Doesnt mean the yield issue goes away. It's clear where we both stand at this point. ;-)
Good for the Xbone team, when can we see the FCC filing btw?

It's like Krillin screaming for 2 episodes to power up before the fight starts and ends in 1 minute.

haha perfect
They don't "work in tandem." They're the same chip.
He's still yet to provide a chart detailing Kinect voice support for each launch country.I think the best course of action at this point is to simply let the launch speak for itself.

Yeah, my bad. I only considered 1 core and CPU have 8 cores. I'll fix my original comment.
It's actually more like underclocking a CPU on a stock cooler, testing it to hell and back, and then deciding to underclock it a bit less.
So, how many extra watts are we talking here? It's a 9% clock boost, and I would imagine the wattage will need to rise more than 9%, since we're approaching the steeper part of the curve. I doubt it's 20% more power, but if it was, that would be what... another 3 watts?

artist was wrong in his post (or at least he was wrong if you read it the way both I and you seem to have interpreted it). The GPU and ESRAM have the same clock speed, thus making his argument invalid. Still, yield issues and a GPU/ESRAM upclock do not necessarily contradict each other. Yield issues due to a too large die size (because of the stupid/conservative engineering decision of DDR3+ESRAM instead of GDDR5) need not necessarily affect the clock speed of the GPU and/or CPU. Edit: This is the point I think artist was getting at even if he didn't make it very well.
All those backhands...this is too good.
Not to mention "dudebro".

Online DRM removal.
GPU and CPU clock increase could be in the patch, but it's not, it's being manufactured with the clock increases.
Online DRM removal required you to be online (to patch out) to be able to play offline. Welp, when they flick that switch everyone connected online before so it's not a problem to make it online required as always planned.
This simply can't be true or they'd have more consoles available to pre order in tier one countries and more tier 1 countries at that. If stocks are awry with the pre order numbers as low as they are comparative to the competition, something is off whether Alberto or Microsoft say otherwise or not. Nobody intentionally manufacturers far too low a number of consoles at the behest of giving their rival a massive head start.
I respect Alberto for towing the Microsoft line in the thick of it, but it won't be that easy. The sales/pre order figures and stock numbers will ultimately speak for themselves.
I don't agree with your premise that Albert Penello is "good people": All I ever saw from him is blatant and meaningless PR, I've never gotten any real insight from his often long-winded posts (I retract my statement of his posts being aggressive, Albert's post history doesn't support this claim)
There's no reason to "believe in rumours" in regards to the Xbone suffering heavy production issues: The amount of launch countries and features cancelled speak for themselves.
I know, I was paraphrasing his post.
This. I've said it once, ill say it again. Albert is a great guy, but he is a MS rep coming in here giving PR responses and posts and will be taken as such.

This *is* good news, isn't it?

What Giga Hertz range is the wireless in the PS4? That is the clue to your max clock speed you seem to confuse.Even the PS4 filing doesn't have a specific clock speed and only lists a max of 2.75GHz. Don't be fooled by faceless words on the internet
The rest of your post is fine, it just looks strange when this is how it ends.
Yes.

LOL. Very few things get me to actually laugh out loud, but somehow this did it.
Nope, it's the effective frequency of the GDDR5-5500.
BS.
Haha. *boom.gif*
Obviously a random forum poster knows more about the console's production than someone on the team.

Xbox One is finally (or might have been in) in production? Nice. Just hurry up and announce the date so I know which days to take off, Albert.
So does this mean that the One has gone "Gold"?

IIRC 2.75Ghz is the clock speed (WCLK) of the GDDR5 needed to reach the currently published memory specs.
And yet we're told the extra 0.5Tflop of the PS4 is meaningless, go figure.

if you it like when Xbone gets good news, then yes it is good news.

Why Xbone need extra mhz when it have the infinite power of the cloud?

Amir0x noted it better about particular cynicism and MSFT. It's not like they're going to admit anything anyways but as my very first post in this thread said, this is good news. I hope you didn't take what I said as an insult since I said what I meant.
what makes you think that
Next time round they will be quiet about their plans I'm sure, on the internet a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

I don't mean to engage on attempting to discredit how forthcoming he's being (I'm with Amirox on this one, I can see how coming here and juggling how much you can say is a tough job), but that's a little annoying.
No.....
