4 X Floating Point Units: 32 billion floating point operations per second (32 GFLOPS)
Register Capacity: 128 times 128 bits
Local Memory / Storage or (LS) per APU: 128 kilobytes SRAM
Main Memory: Main Memory: 64-bit XDR-RAM at 6.4GHz
Memory Bandwidth: (dual-channel = 102.4 GB/s)
DMA: 1 channel per APU
Direct Memory to APU Access: 1,024 bits wide per channel. (8 Channels)

Disc Device
CD-ROM and DVD-ROM
Blu-Ray

<span style='font-size:10pt;line-height:100%'>XBox2 Specifications</span>

Processor / CPU
Three IBM-developed 65nm 64-bit chips @ 3.5GHz+ each. (as used in Apple G5's)
Two cores for each processor, each of which can run two processes in parallel, creating, in effect, 12 processors.

Possibly based on either:
IBM G5 PowerPC Processor OR
New IBM PowerPC Processor

Video / Graphics
ATI Processor similar to upcoming R500.
Clocking in at 500MHz+
Up to 512MB Samsung GDDR2 SDRAM running at 1600MHz.
HDTV support for resolutions up to 1920x1080.
DirectX 10 Support.
~300 Million Transistors on VPU.
Vertex & Pixel Shaders 3.0

Sound / Audio
Dolby Digital 7.1
1024 channel audio
256 3D channel audio
24-bit (DVD quality) audio

Storage / Memory
Minimum of 256MB of System Ram
Dual Layer DVD (9.4GB), Blu-Ray (25GB+) OR Custom Microsoft disks.
Rumoured to be no harddrive, instead removable Flash Memory Storage.

Input / Output
4 x Microsoft Controller Ports
1 x Firewire
1 x 10/100mpbs Ethernet Connection
1 x HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) output
1 x Optical out (Digital Audio)

now start arguing, flaming and bitch, i know PS3 will own.

We can't really say at moment, but judging by the specs.. I don't really know lol. PS3 seems to have more power (8 single processers running at a clock speed of 4ghz, am I right?) but it's looking like Xenon will have the graphical edge over Sony once again but who knows.

We'll just have to wait to see how they perform, hopefully at E3 2k5, if one of the final products are ready by then, or even a prototype would do.

damm man i don't even know what half that stuff is im just look for the bigger number

~Mastermax~ · 03-08-2005, 02:03 PM

nybody reaize the word Xenon has nothing to do with videogames at all, look slike they were ust trying to get a word that sounds "hardcore", it's a fliping element...

Kingryu1 · 03-08-2005, 02:13 PM

[color=#E77471]T'is actually the codename (or one of many) codenames for Xbox 2. Theres X

Green Viper · 03-08-2005, 02:21 PM

snake ur data is awesome but x-box2 info is kinda scratchy & incomplete compared to the details u gave bout PS3. no one can really say at the time but im pretty sure x-box is gonna be the better 1

_-_Diablo_-_ · 03-08-2005, 02:22 PM

SolidSnake76 · 03-08-2005, 02:23 PM

we can never be sure though on whats going down since they are still in production....

but like the rainbow, believe in the cell.

and PS3's 4GHz compared to X-Box2 500+MHz? c'mon....

Well from the specs you've given us the winner seems unanymous. Anyway does anyone know when either comes out?
