MIsterx: Dat MS hate from every corner...I can't beleive..Stupid, stupid MS - they could not recover even with more powerfull box...
With 1.31 box they are dead allready.
Misterx: Some media were briefed...could not
by Text-Enhance">translate that
some media have been told some infos to write about?
Insider: Every body on the blog. Your just going to have to be a little more patient. I understand you have waited for the information to be officially verified by an offical response.
The delay is in fact based around valve and there steambox
and Amd. The nda are in place till after lunch window. Every body at Ms and even 3rd party developers have had to sign a 3 month contract agreement.
by Text-Enhance">Microsoft have not agreed to licence there api or
group hardware effort with valve. And is making sure valve can not use it for there official steambox. This is why valve reveal there os and even talked about steambox around the ms amd design conference. Unfortunately to say this three month window in my eyes is so ms can secure a form of steam os as an app download for xbox 1's app market place. Not sure if it will be streaming or hardware tho.
The final kits have only just stated arriving to developers with the updated specifications
And is the course of bugs in live demonstrations. But like Phil said we have redudence built in the hardware.
And I do apologise for jumping the gun to fast. But when you know and have right in front of you the hardware its a shame that this was not announced. But I think the greed move from amd/nvidia/ and steam the last few days proves a valid point of the industry. They want you hooked on the 500$ upgrade every 6/12 months. And having x1 with top tier gpu specs means that in five years time pc gpu markets will stagnate due to this fact. But these pc guys dont understand factors like fan noise
by Text-Enhance">power cost and size. And simple of use.
Insider: And only 10% of the pc market can afford to have 3x sli or
crossfire setups with 4k monitors. And even less for the average consumer can afford a 4k tv set. Most house holds are only
moving to
by Text-Enhance">1080p television now.
And the fact that pc piracy is so staggering high even steam is compromised on a daily basis in regards to
by Text-Enhance">software piracy. Its a sad industry when the pc hardware markets try to crush the developers of console hardware. Its even worse when these same hardware designers cant figure out that
phones and tablets are the real enemy's of the industry.
I have heard that there will be a bigger gpu article going up soon from euro
gamer . But after the extension on our nda, id believe it to be even more confusing.
Insider: should not do this...
xbox one is the R9 280x
connect the dots
it is modified heavily.
And yes there is a dx core also but its for apps. It can also run the overlays in
games up too 4k
this is what was going to happen. But Amd want to be in every thing. And valve want this tech in there official steambox. This is why media were briefed over the last 24hours. And phil had to cut 30min out of his developer speech at euro expo.
also there will be some bf4 stuff hitting the net.
it is pre alpha and they only have 16x16 play
match. A lot of effects are not implemented in this build. But I guarantee it will look and run better then ps4.
And dig .. patient will be hitting the places soon.
Misterx: Wow, what a drama...
Misterx: How did you,know it is r9 280x? What about guest gpu Did we read it wrong and powerfull gpu already on maic soc and guest is something other? How many flops in total
for system? Also there is 1 report in comments from MS employee about MS were going to say it is
3tf next week and 1 that say there no more hardware besides breakdown.
What means "briefied the press"? Abanbomed or press got some info?
Insider: The R9 280x is the design.. the cu's are the beefed up ones on the R9 290x tho.
ask mistercteam what this means gpu has a powergate of 130w alone. The cpu 30w
kinect 20w system board southbridge 20w.
250w there or around. but 40w is padding. Like nvidia boss said how can and xbox with 200w
powerdraw match 3 x sli or
crossfire.
The reason for the information delay is steambox will have an
a8 amd cpu with separate gpu from nvidia x730 up to 760 modified card.
Xbox would have look lower spec to steambox. 16gig of
ddr3 also.
But in fact x1 in final retail is a lot more powerful then steam box. But not the way steam os scales. The os can run on any hardware configuration. Even x1.
Patent will hit the
internet any day.
I do not have control over any
direction any of these corporations go or what information they put out officially. Same goes for any insider. I ant bill gates or kaz or Gabriel. And I risk everything to help out. Your going to see x1 pull way in front of ps4 over the next few weeks. Thats is what all of you are here for. But x1 ant a
3000$ super
computer with 1200w of power or liquid cooled. But a 3.4tf console ant weak by any means. But you can all do the maths on that number. Keep digging you will get your answer... I have told you enough now do your digging and you will see if I lied to you.
