Microsoft "Turning Xbox One 10% Reserved GPU For OS To 2%"

4.6
Microsoft may offer more breathing room for developers making games for the Xbox One, according to industry insider Pete Dodd who has proven to be extremely reliable before.

10% reserved gpu getting turned into 2% soon. And with that, I’m on my last bar leaving Puerto Rico. See ya soon if St. Thomas has sprint.

“Gpu for that certain system had 10% reserved. 8% video. 2% voice. Voice will remain. That video 8% will be up to devs. As it should be.

Currently 10% of the Xbox One GPU is reserved for OS functions and Kinect and it looks like that will be reduced to 2% soon, giving developers more power.”

While this does not seem much and won’t make the Xbox One equivalent to the PS4 in processing power, every bit helps. Microsoft had earlier also increased the CPU clock speed.

Another insider Ahsan Rasheed called this a “great news for Xbox fans”. Take this is a rumour for now but these insiders have a good track record with Xbox One related stuff.

xByNovaa The console will still be a failure

You obviously do not know anything, considering it is already a major success.

MoBo Xbone isn't good... Sure, it would be if it didn't cost an arm and a leg.


The Xbox ONE doesn't cost an "arm and a leg". It is a somewhat cheap way to play video games with friends. If you think $500 is too much for a 4k ready console with graphics and power to rival PCs of the same caliber or slightly higher, you don't deserve one. Earn money, don't game.

iPhoneWiz I sold my xbox, and built a computer...


Same with me! *High five*

Guys,

I'm serious. The Xbox One is nice, but it's so last gen. I played on my friends pc that he built for 550. It ran BF4 on Ultra with 75 FPS. That was a beautiful moment.


Not possible for only 550 in any currency to run 1080p+ BF4 ultra. The GPU needed would have to be $300+ with a CPU that is $200+, or cheaper GPU and CPU with more expensive cooling solution for over clocking to get more FPS. Not to mention the extra price a keyboard, mouse, speakers, monitor, RAM, PSU, case, DVD drive, and motherboard. My last build, that I recently sold, cost me $3,000 to build and was only "state of the art" for a few years.


It's easily possible. I have one set up for $450 (roughly) that runs better than the Xbox One.
-AMD Athlon II X2 370K 4.2GHz Dual-Core: $56.23
-Zalman CNPS5X Performa: $14.99
-ECS A75F2-A2(1.0) ATX FM2: $60.66
-Patriot Signature 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3-1333: $76.99
-Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM: $59.66
-Asus Radeon HD 7770 1GB: $100.66
-Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower: $49.99
-Corsair 430W ATX12V: $29.99
Total: $449.17

Can run games on high-ultra settings in 1080p (same or better than Xbox One)


That user said 75 FPS, not lower.


550 is without the monitor, speakers, keyboard, OS, mouse, Hard Drive, and 2x8gb ram cards.


Looks like I was correct. PC gaming is better in every aspect, except price (usually). Just remember that the ONE and PS4 have spectacular capabilities, but a $1000 PC will obviously beat it.


Anyone who knows anything about the hardware in pcs vs console already knew that pc gaming is better. Thats been obvious for years. Consoles are just more convenient for a lot of people.


WHO CARES IF PC IS MASTER RACE?!

Some people don't wanna take the time to research and build a proper rig. Others prefer sitting on the couch with their friends and split screening some Lego Marvel.
To each their own and can we please stop rehashing this stupid argument that never brings about fresh input, just finger pointing and name calling.


Make a topic in pc building with your budget and you won't need to "research" if this helps you can play the pc with a xbox controller.



I agree with NHK, No one even cares about the competitions it's always going to be about what we prefer. It's nothing to do with all this high tech stuff.

both systems do. thats just how it is. both consoles are very nice but im not paying this amount of money for basically better graphics. i honestly dont give a **** about graphics that much.


This is business for companies though

They know they can make the price insane and consumers will still buy it

They probably looked at how good the worlds economy and consumer confidence and raised the price
