Here are the Full Specs on the Xbox Series X

Things are looking pretty good for the Xbox Series X in terms of raw numbers, but let’s face it, numbers don’t make a system a success. Just look at the Wii and Switch for prime examples of low-spec systems doing Bonzo numbers.

Check out the specs below:

  • CPU: 8x Zen 2 Cores at 3.8GHz (3.6GHz with SMT)
  • GPU: 12 TFLOPs, 52 CUs at 1.825GHz, Custom RDNA 2
  • Die Size: 360.45mm2
  • Process: TSMC 7nm Enhanced
  • Memory: 16GB GDDR6
  • Memory Bandwidth: 10GB at 560GB/s, 6GB at 336GB/s
  • Internal Storage: 1TB Custom NVMe SSD
  • I/O Throughput: 2.4GB/s (Raw), 4.8GB/s (Compressed)
  • Expandable Storage: 1TB Expansion Card
  • External Storage: USB 3.2 HDD Support
  • Optical Drive: 4K UHD Blu-ray Drive
  • Performance Target: 4K at 60fps – up to 120fps

What’s pretty neat to note is that Microsoft teamed with Seagate on a proprietary 1TB SSD that you can plug right into the system.

And it’s that SSD that features a few tricks, most notably the Quick Resume feature that lets you pick up a game even if the console has been powered down.

“One of the testers on the team unplugged his console for a week, then took an update, and was still able to continue right where he left off without so much as a loading screen.”

Also of note is the processor under the hood that is capable of running four Xbox One S game sessions at once. No idea how this will ever be needed in a real-world situation but it sure looks nice on paper for those power-pushing people out there.
