Adam91 Posted January 8, 2013 Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 Recent reports claim to have revealed the next gen xbox specs, it's is said that the CPU, GPU and RAM total but microsoft have not announced these details themselves yet so it should still be considered as rumor. Read below for more details. This article is from Examiner.com Although Microsoft remains mum on the topic, rumors concerning Microsoft’s upcoming next-generation home console, dubbed Xbox 720, continue to surface. On Tuesday, a report from Club.TGCER.com arose which, apparently, reveals many of the technical specs of the Xbox 720. According to a post from the NeoGAF video game forums, which translated the original source, the Xbox 720 will house an 8-core CPU, a customized AMD 8800 series GPU, and pack 8 GB of RAM – for comparison, the Nintendo Wii U has 2GB of RAM. In addition to these technical details, the report also mentions that the Xbox 720 will use Windows 8 as an operating system and come with a 640 GB hard disk drive – the Xbox 360’s largest HDD currently is 320 GB. Microsoft has not formally announced the Xbox 720 or a next-generation home console. Despite Microsoft’s reluctance to announce the new hardware, there have been a number of reports that suggest Microsoft will debut the Xbox 720 at E3 2013 later this year with a launch in North America by the end of the year View full article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haloman 2 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 windows 8 won't come out for a while so this won't be for a while. it depends on when the E3 happens. if it happens before windows 8 they won't be able to make the 720. I hope both turn out well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCPO Mayh3m Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I have also had miss-information. So it is ok if he didn't know. But yes, Windows 8 has already been released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delpen9 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Cloud will eventually rule the gaming and computer industry so this article doesn't excite me as much as it should... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final Sentence Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 WIN8 isn't out yet, that's a good one Haloman 2, We've been running tests on it for months now, and I don't see any problem with this being the main OS. Also, the highest core currently being sold is 16-core in the AMD Opteron 6200 series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Substandard IQ Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 As for these specs. I've seen so many rumors that i don't believe this at all. It happens before the release of every generation of consoles people always make stuff up, so be careful what you believe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
