Why does the chart say custom cores if its just jaguar?

Its a customized Jaguar I think.

12GB GDDR5, wowzas. I can't see this being $399.

Legend

Eurogamer thinks this is going to be a $500 console.

Scorpio made simple: the next Xbox's tech explained • Eurogamer.net
I think it'll be $500 too. That cooling system sounds premium.

BananaKing

yeah i dont see this being 400$. no way. unless they want to take a loss.

Legend

That was a weird console reveal...

Not too bad but horribly odd. Why would they do this before they could show any games actually running on the thing? It forces people to only think about the numbers and on paper Scorpio is much worse than fans expected. The DX12 optimizations and the like might do wonders in practice but right now it feels like a disappointment.

For what reason did this need to happen before E3?

probably to offset the leak. it was rumored that DF were going to leak Scorpio specs and say that current SDK performance is 4.8 TF instead of 6. that would have made headlines.

No Forza 7?
That's a separate announcement at some point I believe.

Lots on GAF hoping this is $399, I just can't see it honestly. If by some miracle it launches less than £400 I might buy one, multiplats are gonna look sexy as fudge on this.

Also, yeah I agree with Legend.

What was this and why did this have to exist?
