Xbox is evolving in a big way. Launching Nov. 7 for $499, the Xbox One X promises high-end components that can power the types of 4K gaming experiences that you'd typically need a tricked-out PC for.
The arrival of a new console so early into the Xbox One's life cycle may seem confusing or alarming, but fret not — we're here to break down everything you need to know about what Microsoft is calling "the most powerful console ever."
The Xbox One X is a beefier, 4K-ready version of the Xbox One. It will work with all of your existing Xbox One games and accessories, but will also be able to run select games in 4K while providing better load times and sharper images for folks using 1080p TVs. It looks a whole lot like the Xbox One S, but is somehow even slimmer. And just like the One S, the One X plays 4K Blu-rays.
According to Microsoft's official specs, Xbox One X is well on its way to living up to the claim of being the most powerful games console ever. The system features a custom 2.3-GHz 8-core CPU, a 1,172-mHz GPU, 12GB of RAM, 1TB hard drive and a 4K Blu-ray player. That makes Xbox One X almost universally more powerful than Sony's PS4 Pro, which packs a 2.1-GHz processor, a 911-MHz GPU, 8GB of RAM and a standard Blu-ray player. In layman's terms, Xbox One X is about 30 percent faster than Xbox One and has over 4 times the graphics muscle.
According to benchmark data acquired by the savvy folks at Digital Foundry, the Xbox One X has no problem maintaining steady framerates when bumping games at ultra-high definition. In fact, some of the tested games ran at even higher framerates when making the jump from 1080p to 4K. That's significant power.
Xbox One X also promises to run your existing Xbox One and Xbox 360 games with better framerates and loading times, and will feature integrated 4K video capture for taking extra-sharp clips. A follow-up report from Digital Foundry points out that the console will support AMD FreeSync as well as the latest HDMI 2.1 spec, meaning that folks with FreeSync-enabled gaming monitors can look forward to extra smooth performance on the console.
