So Xbox Series X has been announce and it has 12 teraflop RDNA performance that's equal to RTX 2080 Super more or less,

Stop right here. Nothing of this kind has been said. What was said is 2*gpu performance of the X1X - which puts the system at 12TFlop GCN performance.

No consider this: An AMD RX5700XT at 9,75TFlop is already heating with around 225W. If you want 12TFlop, you are way past the 250W region. Not to forget that gpu wattage increases sharply after around 1.75GHz. Add a fast cpu (3.6GHz Ryzen2 adds quite a few Watts), dedicated raytracing cores (in question, though), and whatnot and you are way past 300W.

Now the new XBox design looks like a cooling tower, so maybe we do get a resistive heater for our flats/houses in the end...
