X1X is 6TFlops, but I guess it's an older/less efficient kind than what what is found in the Series X. PS5 has been rumored to be more powerful IIrc, but not sure by how much.

Play anywhere over generations, LOVE IT!
I hope third parties sign on for cross gen games, I'm not going to buy twice and will wait for the next gen if I have too (Cyberpunk etc.)
It should not be perplexing because talking about RDNA2 (or even RDNA1) efficiency vs any version of GCN makes things more complex for marketing.
Besides, a teraflop is a teraflop.
I don't understand why people find it hard to swallow a $599 price point for a higher end console? They're marketing this one towards enthusiasts. Quite frankly, $599 seems perfectly fine. There's a reason they're releasing multiple systems.
I'm sure they know what they're doing, and heck, maybe it's even less. Gaming isn't a cheap hobby.

I'm glad to see they are promoting low latency and higher frame rates. I was hoping that if nothing else came of Stadia it would push an emphasis on latency and that seems to be what happened.
499 or 599? What do you think? We need a thread with a poll. Hell this could even be even more... doubt it but still.
More than 12TF? Is that even doable for a reasonable price right now?
I really wish Xbox portfolio spoke more to me. Awesome specs, I wonder how far behind the PS5 will be.
MS would have to take a huge hit to get this thing down to $499.
I'd be hugely surprised if they went lower than $549-$599.
People saying this thing would be dead at over $499 don;t realise quite how powerful this thing is and what MSs sales expectations for it will be.
The ace in their hole is that at the launch event I think they'll also drop Lockheart at $299.
If so, they'll be expecting something akin to an 85%/15% sales ratio. So with a strong gen of circa 80m sales next gen they'd only sell 12m of XSX and 68m Lockhearts. That's certainly doable. Particularly with All Access.
XSX is the S20 Ultra of the console world. The top-tier spec war winning version that most won;t buy that simply exists to create a Halo effect around the brand.

Stadia has yet to show higher performance than the XBX. So this announcement is the least of its problems.(10.7 TF) yikes
What? You are completely wrong here.
PS5 has always been rumored to be between 9.2 and 10 TF.
If your G-Sync monitor support FreeSync then yes.
Xbox One X also already had VRR support.
Idk, it's all rumours anyways. I just remembered reading on other topics here PS5 would be more powerful according to recent rumours.
The Xbox One X is 6 TF (most powerful console to date) and the PS5 has been rumored to be from 9.2TF to 10TF.
Choose the rumor that fits your narrative. Or wait for the unveiling.
There are rumors that say that. Whenever they are credible is another thing.
Can't see them going over £450-500. Any higher than that and I'll need to reconsider purchasing at launch.
I also really like it that Microsoft is so open and transparent. It seems like they are really confident about their product which gives me a great feeling that I'm doing the right choice with buying an XBox Series X at launch.
Sony quietness on the other hand is starting to get a little worrying. This doesn't mean that I think there are in trouble, but it looks to me like they are not as confident as Microsoft is right now.

I can't tell if comments like these are actually serious or just a big joke anymore... the internet has ruined me.
One thing I'm surprised about is 120fps support and basically having Gsync inbuilt. Are there even TVs out there yet that support more than 60fps?
Also, how do we abbreviate the name from now on and how do we call the people owning one? :D

Can't wait for 30fps versions of games with that 12tf of power!
(please make framerate more important than res this gen. Lol)

Yes but his post said between 9.2 and 10 when there are rumours that go substantially higher.
It was always expected by everyone who were paying any attention to features disclosed for consoles and RDNA2.
Lol, it's all good man. I'm really curious to find out if XSX GPU is indeed using 56 CUs. If so, we should nearly be able to figure out the clockspeed.
Pretty much it seems. Last one I saw was the DF one.
Fair point. Yet given they went out of their way to outline how VRS works, it feels like they did not need to undersell just how much of a gain 12TF RDNA is over 6TF GCN.
Anyway, this is a huge, and I mean huge victory for MS's and AMD's engineering partnership.
Ofc. This is why i bought an LG C9. 120fps support, HDMI 2.1 etc
Game Pass is honestly amazing. I've been a subscriber for around 8 months now and I love it. And you're right—not having to buy 3 to 5 games in addition to the console at launch is really appealing. Just sign up for Game Pass and play Halo Infinite and other first-party games immediately.
Running a regular RTX 2070, but aside from that the PC I built fall 2018 meets all the criteria to best the hot new console coming out Holiday 2020...
Also, PC has mods.
The Series X looks impressive, though. No need to throw out bait and start a PC/Console war.
console warrior + classic PCMR bait aside, pretty sure no one plays PC gaming this way, particularly since much of this is nonsensical with a seemingly poor understanding of PC hardware eg superior to current gen processor performance doesn't require 8 cores nor does it even require that many threads of even half that.
Most people are very content with PC flexibility to upgrade as they see fit, at a level that makes sense for them. That's kind of the whole point of not being beholden to a vendors hardware spec.
Plenty of folk will have no problem with the games coming in the next couple of years
