Soo still a huge cpu bottleneck?
Looks amazing for xbox fans

If by that you mean, 30fps not being able to run at 60fps, then sure but for those who will optimize for the xbox one Scropio should see noticable benefits in performance apart from just, oh it has a higher clock rate. The CPU is certainly customized to take advantage of DX12 so for the developers who are optimizing for Scorpio should see increased benefits.



                  

PC Specs: CPU: 7800X3D || GPU: Strix 4090 || RAM: 32GB DDR5 6000 || Main SSD: WD 2TB SN850

this sounds rather impressive. it will be interesting to see how all this shapes up. price tag will be crucial for this things success.

this is forza 7 screenshot apprently]

Nah, that's forza 6 ported to Scorpio, "This is a straight up X1 port, the only difference is the resolution and the inclusion of 4k art assets."

Though as Forza 7 will use the same engine it may as well be a Forza 7 screenshot.

It's good. Pretty much inline what people that didn't have nonsense imagination expected. The cpu is an upgraded jag which is customized to fit MS's API and the GPU is pretty powerful.

so it's a nice bump over Pro, but nothing close to 'next-gen'

yeah, that is what i expected, no idea where the extra hype came from

Pretty much. It's more or less just taking current games and making them 4k native instead of say 1440p checkerboard.

I heard the phrase "Microsoft spares no expense" now I don't know if it will launch at $399...

It's an impressive piece of tech and if they can meet that price point it'll be great.

That's a stretch, especially now that the specs are out. I'd expect $499 or above TBH.

I felt like it more of a marketing pitch and power barging rather than a technical specs demo.



So apparently Forza 6 was hitting 4k with 4k textures only using about 70% of the GPU (straight port). Not bad at all. CPU although is same jaguar is more efficent because it reduces half of the instructions than before.

DF predict $499 I think i heard

I don't really see much reason to believe it is going to outperform Pro in sales overall. Maybe do better in the US and UK, and worse everywhere else
