Just a few questions do you think that pretty much all games will be more heavily gpu dependant from here on in? If so the cpu bottleneck may be a non issue? Also with dx12 baked into x1x helping the cpu out and this cpu being a heavily modified/beefed up version do you think it will do just fine? Keeping cost vs performance trade offs in mind...

Pretty sure most games nowadays are GPU heavy already. Looking on PC it tends to big RTS game and high physics driven games that still rely heavily on CPU...but the CPU is still super important and required to do massive amounts of work.

As for DX12, eh. On PC the platform it should have most impact on, it isn't really proving itself. As for Xbox I doubt it made any real difference since it had a number of its benefits at launch.

It will be fine. We are already seeing the big visual jumps that will improve overtime. The big thing is X1X isn't a new gen, So games are still made for the original s*** CPU anyway.
 
In an effort to offer additional clarity on just what Xbox One X and Xbox One S owners are getting with the games they buy, Microsoft is adding new branding guidelines to Xbox One titles this fall.

The company is introducing a trio of signifiers. One denotes 4K resolution — though this includes native 2160p, a “checkerboarded” 2160p presentation or a dynamic, scaling resolution with a performance target of 2160p. The second indicates support for high dynamic range (HDR) color. Finally, an “Xbox One X Enhanced” message declares some enhanced visual fidelity.

I created my Mixer account using my MS account that is my Live account. Do you have to do it from a PC? When I log into Mixer.com on my phone browser it shows my MS account is linked.

Lol. Did their Xbox just die while playing Minecraft?

I hope that wasn't a Scorpio.

Still got nothing, and I actually watched it on Mixer on two devices. Why do they hate my soul?

Did you link your mixer account to your live account? It's a separate step - the fact that xbox recognizes you on Mixer doesn't actually mean that they're linked because that would be convenient.

When I go to Mixer.com it says my Microsoft account is linked. I do not see a option to link a XBox Live account.

You have the Rare Replay version installed? To launch it from RR the RR version has to be installed. I did notice when I launched it straight from the dash it took forever to load off of the game's splash screen though.
