The Xbox One isn't gonna increase its power because it's limited by its GPU. The only thing DX12 will do is improve code and optimisation. So stop this Nonsense of DX12 being a game changer etc. The PS4 already has SDK coding to the metal. The GPU is far more customised and capable of GPGPU for future proofing |
We don't know if it's going to be DX12 but software makes a difference as it enables devs to utilize the given hardware even better.
Hardware doesn't change is like saying tomorrow the sun rises. Nobody doubts it.
And to what extent GPGPU can be used within a GPU which is already doing graphics we have to see in the future. Not that I doubt the customizations Sony did to the GPU but I wonder how often the GPU "idles" and how long it idles so that you actually can make use of it.
