Showan Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Xbox chief marketing officer Yusef Mehdi just spoke at the Citi Global Technology Conference and said Microsoft is now in full production for the Xbox One and producing in mass with plans still on for a November 2013 launch. About one month after improving the GPU clock speed, Mehdi added that Microsoft just made another technical boost by upgrading the CPU performance to 1.75 GHZ from 1.6 GHZ. http://www.geekwire.com/2013/xbox-update-console-full-production-improved-cpu-performance/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+geekwire+%28GeekWire%29 Thief000, SecretAgentMan, vcfan and 2 others 5 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalint Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Are we even sure its called Xbox One anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trooper11 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 That's interesting. The other post regarding the technical pieces of the SoC seemed to point to a clock speed higher than 1.75 ghz, but that's still a decent bonus. They must be seeing good yields on the hardware and have the thermal headroom thanks to the case design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andre S. Veteran Posted September 3, 2013 Veteran Share Posted September 3, 2013 OMG a small CPU clock speed tweak! Microsoft you LIARS YOU SAID IT WOULD BE 1.6GHZ I WANT MY MONEY BACK it's ok calm down people. It's just a 9% difference and it's actually good for everyone.

farmeunit Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Let's just hope the higher clock doesn't lead to much higher temps and bring back the old RROD, if it's still called that. Of course that was mostly just a shoddy solder job, but . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Showan Posted September 4, 2013 Author Share Posted September 4, 2013 With the slight bump up in the GPU & CPU, that should equal better overall performance (will help future games target a consistent 1080p/60fps) in games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yogurtmaster Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 I really wouldn't worry about RROD. This thing has been designed like a 2013 Tank. Huge heat sink with HUGE pipes, full SOC design, huge fan, huge box. If it gets too hot it will actually down-clock itself and pull less electricity.

Blackhearted Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Now all that's left for them to do is give that ddr3 a small, not very significant overclock and they'll have covered all their bases on last second clock speed changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can't help it, they already preordered the PS4 so it makes them feel better. Personally I'd say under 5% would be insignificant, above that is pretty decent.

Blackhearted Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 seriously? are you really that naive? Oh, right. They planned years in advance to increase the clock speeds of everything at the last minute like they have. microsoft fans.. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George P Global Moderator Posted September 4, 2013 Global Moderator Share Posted September 4, 2013 When do you think clock speed tweaks happen exactly? It's in the testing phase, which they just finished and are now in full production. I mean some of you can be really silly about things. They tested it and saw they could bump up the speed and get better performance, and this is a negative why? IceBreakerG and NateB1 2 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yogurtmaster Posted September 4, 2013 Share Posted September 4, 2013 Does it have a slot to install a math coprocessor? I know your joking, but that's not funny. The last math coprocessor that you could install was the Intel 386sx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
