DF Direct: Hands-On With Xbox Series X + Impressions + Xbox One X Size Comparisons
- Thread starter Theorry
- Start date
Like they said in the video, you're gonna want them to be able to stress test this thing. Hopefully they don't have issues. It's so freaking compact.
Are you guys going to post a full video of the tear down/construction?
The external SSD cards can run games.
it's external USB drives that won't.
This is state of art hardware! Xbox delivered. I'm going to get a XBSX as soon as (money allows) possible!
Only one slot. Cards are 1tb at launch but can be larger in the future (I suppose as costs come down). USB is for external backup.
great so looks like I'm going to spend a grand to keep Most of my games at the ready. I don't see any way that Sony is going to exceed this technical hurdle so I'd expect 1tb from them as well as some way to use an external ssd that is t proprietary I hope.
What happened to the fourth guy that used to do DF videos? I honestly cant remember his name but I liked his content.
so, the controller seems it won't have back buttons. That's a huge disappointment, since it seems the PS5 will have it in some form.
Personally I feel like the strategy is to show how great it is early and upfront so they can justify the $600 price tag(I suspect). Its a good strategy.
loooks really good! Reminds me of the new mac pro with how packed everything looks!
Curious if this will launch this year or be delayed until next becasue of covid-19 or maybe a staggered launch?
Seeing as there are no "only on" series X games in the works I could see a staggered launch workout.

Tom? He produces stuff all the time. Just put a video up a day or two ago, in fact.
Oh really? Maybe just not posted on here much then. I'll check it out. Thanks!
Does the Xbox controller have a headphone jack to route game sound through similar to ps? Its one of my fav late night gaming features.
Yes, it's actually way better than the DS4 output too as it has a decent amp, great audio quality (doesn't use bluetooth like DS4) and supports Dolby Atmos for Headphones too.
Transfer speed would be limited by the HDD and the USB connector. Depending on the game you'll definitely need to wait a little bit, but it should be faster than redownloading the game.
Yeah, I've actually been surprised how many recent videos are him, he's really been putting in some work.
I believe that's how it works. Something along those lines. How many games you can suspend depends on the size of the game, it seems. It was suggested that you could do maybe 5-6 Series X games but more with BC titles.
This is all I needed to hear. I've been holding off playing all these gamepass games on my og Xbox one , so I can't wait to try all these amazing games enhanced on series x.
Yeah the XBO controller has had a headphone jack since the V2 controller launched alongside Xbox One S with the fixed triggers.
This. The amp is about the same as the external amp that comes with the Turtle Beach Elite Pro 2 headset. I was so underwhelmed by the external amp that I just use the controller one.
legit beautiful design,and also fuck those are not even cfast cards as ssd's this is some new tech
I kinda like that it seems to be just a refinement of what we're used to and I think the system looks pretty nice to boot.
One thing I am curious about is how these new games will run on PC.. Will all games need to stored on a specific grade of NVMe drive to function? Definitely holding off my next PC build for a bit longer so I know what I need...

That's more a talking point about why they have the proprietary ssd coming. They can make sure it has the proper performance compared to a low cost solution that doesn't have the same speeds for cheaper prices. i.e. QLC nvme drives that barely stay at 1.5GB/s r/w.with the SSD having higher throughput than desktop SSDs, what's that gonna mean for PCs? 7GB/s nvmes with heatsinks will be mandatory?
it doesn't seem like the Series X has appreciably faster loading times than a decent SSD-equipped PC going by that video they put out, so I doubt much'll change when it comes to PC SSD requirements.with the SSD having higher throughput than desktop SSDs, what's that gonna mean for PCs? 7GB/s nvmes with heatsinks will be mandatory?
So if 100gb is reserved for all the usual stuff this will probably be another 100gb or so?
Hope we get 1.5tb at least.
I don't know, taking apart Apple hardware where everything is soldered and glued together is nothing like that, right? The Mac Pro is different, but that's about it.
