Eurogamer today revealed the specs for its upcoming successor Xbox One. Microsoft's 'Project Scorpio' achieved six teraflops of performance using a custom 8-core processor clocked at 2,3 GHz.
This particular processor makes the upcoming console around 30% faster than the Xbox One, and much better in handling multitasking.
Please note that the site claims that leaks come directly from Microsoft, and states that they are official and final.
Microsoft's main goal with Project Scorpio is to achieve complete compatibility with current gamea of Xbox One but also the opposite.
The GPU of upcoming Project Scorpios is about 4,6 times stronger than the Xbox. It will wear 12 GB GDDR5 RAM from which 8GB will only be for games.
All the above characteristics make the upcoming console slightly more powerful than the PS4 Pro, and while it's not capable of playing every PS4 game in 4K, Project Scorpio can theoretically handle almost every current Xbox One title in 4K.
With Pro Scorpio, Microsoft hopes to win back the developers as it has several toolsets to make it easier to create games.
Of course, there is not yet a precise release date, and the prices have not leaked, although it will surely leak more information before E3.
