New GameSpot article talks about some of the specs of the Xbox Series X

Switching from 64-wide to 32-wide execution with 1/4th of minimal latency would do that. They've also caught up on flop/transistor though so it's an obvious trade off between higher efficiency or higher peak throughput.
Let me tell you about the Xbox 360 Core sku. Only $100 less yet it lacked a hard drive and many other features. There is precedence for stupid launch skus.
If you have 4TF GPU targeting 1080p ~ 1440p, you don't need 4K target textures and thus you need less RAM.
Yeah but developers like to use RAM for everything, not just textures character models , animations shadow effects
They will complain
You are confusing things. They are not going to give S games more complex animation etc than X games. S doesn't need as much RAM as X due to target resolution. See XBox One for example.
I know they still gonna complain, i read they are already complaining because lockheart is much less powerful .
There gonna make games for both anyways :^P
Thousands of dollars? I could build a OC with a 2080 TI for less than two grand easily
that wholy depends on the rt implantation. by the time consoles come out, nvidia will be releasing v2 of their rtx stuff.
If Lockhart is cheaper than PS5 I'm not sure that the Series X price point matters. As someone who has worked in ecommerce at some big companies I've seen the disparity between the enhanced consoles and the base ones being around 5:1 in sales (or more if there's sales on the base model).
MS already said they are forcing devs to support XBO with next gen games for some time. Downtuning graphics for Series S will be trivial to what devs have to do for XBO SKUs.
You got a quote to back to that claim? Because it doesn't sound believable.
I have never heard of a console making demanding third parties continue to support their old console.
YouTube Spencer interview with IGN (orGS?) the night of reveal. This has been reported by multiple outlets. And I agree with you. It's not gonna be successful.
