New rumors about next-gen Xbox CPU specs hit the web
The rumors talk on how AMD is creating the processor for Microsoft.
The CPU inside the console, code named Durango, has two modules, each with four x86 cores inside, according sources sharing these rumors. Each of those cores reportedly runs on a single thread at 1.6Ghz. Also, the cores each feature "a 32 KB instruction cache (I-cache) and a 32 KB data cache (D-cache), and the 4 cores in each module share a 2 MB level 2 (L2) cache. In total, the modules have 8 hardware threads and 4 MB of L2."
The Xbox 720 CPU apparently has a clock speed of 1.6 Ghz, which is actually half the speed of the cores inside the current Xbox 360. The Xbox 360, launched in 2005, has a PowerPC-based processor with three cores and a clock speed of 3.2 Ghz.

Raised Basically the xbox 720 will be slower than the 360?
not really, it has 5 extra cores and a larger Cache, games are becoming more reliant on the GFX card for post process effects rather than the CPU so it will be a lot faster in theory, though how it will work out we will have to wait and see :)

MoDTHEMoD_v3ixMythevery game will be hackable for sureLiteracy PowerPC ? Those who have the knowledge of Power PC and a decent knowledge of c++, i can see the next gen hackable for sure.
You realize that's what the current 360 has...
It honestly is sad that the thing isn't even out yet and people are already worried about if they can hack it or not.
why do people buy games only to end up cheating at them, also why would anyone with good C++ knowledge be playing console lmao

No, this, if true, will have 8 cores verse the current triple core we have now.

This isn`t leaked at all, its rumored, and i definitely think that this will be hacked, but the security will be a lot better.I dont possibly think they could stop offline modding/hacking or piracy, but they can do a lot with 8 x86 processors.
