Yeah, true, good point.  But that still doesn't explain the overkill of 9.6 GHz.  That's just nuts.  Actually, I believe the XBox is 733 MHz.  If that's the case, that makes the XBox 360 13 times more powerful than the original.  You have to admit that that seems a little excessive.

That's not how it works. You're comparing an older x86 architecture to a brand-new Power-base chip. And multiple cores or CPUs are not additive. ie three 3.2Ghz cores don't equal one 9.6Ghz CPU.

If developers (and the XNA tools) can take advantage of that parallelism, then yes, it's a ridiculous amount of processing power.

But that's the idea. The game console industry is huge these days. And pouring money and new technology into products is something Microsoft is very good at.

"- Strem media from Windows XP (S)(O) ", that means is somewhat compatible with windows no?, but how in a ppc architecture? oO

This could simply mean that when you hook it up to your network via your network port on the XBox 360, you can stream Windows Media files from your PC to the XBox 360. I'm not sure what else it could mean.

Custom IBM PowerPC-based CPU

- 3 symmetrical cores at 3.2 GHz each

- 2 hardware threads per core <-- whats this? some kind of hyper threading?

actually thats wrong.. it should be 2 instructions per core.. Normal CPU can perform 4-6 instructions at once but this CPU will be able to do 2.. its because it will reserve power and for console you dont need that many instruction since you are only playing a game.. I read on Anandtech that CELL processor is also going to have 2 instruction at once.

Mainly whoever posted the "fag" comment.  Wait a minute...I don't see it anymore.  Was I looking at the wrong post?  I think I'm losing my mind or something.

^lol rickie wins

oh. That was Xero. I'm guessing a mod removed it because it was totally unnesessary.

    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      By dorf · Posted

      I tried to get the latest secureboot certificate for my old Dell 7010 Optiplex machine.   I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake.  Now when secure boot is on. The machine doesn't boot and complains about no booting devises.  The computer's secure boot can't find where to boot and the information apparently has to be entered manually.  Secureboot's settings are now years old and it can't find a new configuration.  What could be done here? There are plenty of files to choose from in the secureboot menu, but I don't know what to put there for each of the four Windows 11 upgraded from 10..... originally who knows what (used machine) without secureboot it booting normally

      They need to follow the standard for AAA game but they will go at lowest level for triple a game because will sell more, earn kudos and the milk it for years anyway. look how much they milked gta 5 and how they milked the original 3 - San Andreas and vice city. it is probably going to be a fun game but then they allowed someone to remake classics that somehow were more broken and worse then original i hope they don’t ###### up this one!!!
