Xbox 720 Will Be Six Times as Powerful as Current Gen
In real terms, the Xbox 720's raw graphics processing power is expected to be six times that of the Xbox 360 and will yield 20-percent greater performance than Nintendo's forthcoming console, the Wii U.
Developers are likely to receive development kits based on the system's final configuration in August. Projected pricing for the console was not provided.
Thanks to IGN for the quick write up!

cwc123This is an Xbox, not a computer.TTG_V3ry_P1ss3dcwc123 That's pretty disappointing. My PC has TWO GTX 460s, and just one 460 is roughly equivalent to a Radeon 6850-6870.
You could actually build a rig with better specs than this console right now for under $500....
Really? i don't know about all this tech **** lol, but why the hell don't they just make a high powered pc strictly for gaming? i mean the whole reason i dont play games on pc is it seems complicated, even though im aware its not
Well, you could build it in theory, but obviously it wouldn't be high end. But you could play games on settings around the same as the console. Also, the console's actual CPU would likely be better, but games don't use more than 4 CPU cores anyway at the moment.
And they don't just release a PC because it has too much freedom. That's why. They want you to buy stuff from their overpriced marketplace, and pay $60 a year for Live. On PC, you aren't bound to a single service. If you don't like MS, you can use Valve's Steam or EA's Origin.

That's actually INCREDIBLY disappointing.
PC is already years ahead even though the console hasn't released.

It'll be very interesting to see what the next-gen games look like, although I'm more of a Nostalgic player. I do hope to see what games will look like with immense detail like the GCI you see in movies in todays standards.
