AMD based Xbox Series X could have 3584 shader processors
Xbox Series X is coming later next year and it is powered by an AMD SoC. The specs in relation to the GPU however have been scarce. That might have changed as some information appeared on AMDs Github page, listing the SoC at 3584 shaders processors.
At the end of last week, several users discovered a Github repository, which was apparently maintained by AMD and contains all sorts of information about the systems-on-a-chip of Playstation 5 and Xbox Series X. In the meantime it has been taken offline and associated tweets have also been deleted - probably under pressure from Microsoft and Sony or directly through AMD.
The dataset was quite big, but the gents from DigitalFoundry have deciphered it. The new Xbox would get a GPU with 56 compute units at 1.675 GHz. So at 64 Shaders per CU that is 3584 Shaders. To compare a bit, the Radeon RX 5700 XT has 40 compute units. So that is a mighty heap of graphics power for a console.
| Xbox Series X (Anaconda) | Xbox One X | Xbox One/ Xbox One S | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | Eight Zen 2 Cores with SMT - clocks undisclosed | Eight Jaguar cores clocked at 2.3GHz | Eight Jaguar cores clocked at 1.75GHz |
| GPU | 56 custom Navi compute units at approx 1700MHz | 40 custom GCN compute units at 1172MHz | 12 GCN compute units at 853MHz/914MHz (S) |
| Memory | GDDR6 at 560GB/s - capacity undisclosed | 12GB GDDR5 at 326GB/s |
8GB DDR3 at 68GB/s (Plus ESRAM)
|
The Playstation 5 would get 36 compute units and 2304 shaders at 2 GHz. Both consoles are rumored to get GDDR6 for a proper memory bandwidth of let's say 448 GB/s. Both consoles aim to be available for the holidays of 2020.
| PlayStation 5 (Unconfirmed) | PlayStation 4 Pro | PlayStation 4 | |
|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | Eight Zen 2 Cores with SMT - clocks undisclosed | Eight Jaguar cores clocked at 2.1GHz | Eight Jaguar cores clocked at 1.6GHz |
| GPU | 36 custom Navi compute units at 2000MHz | 36 custom GCN compute units at 911MHz | 18 GCN compute units at 800MHz |
| Memory | GDDR6 at 448GB/s (Possibly 512GB/s) - capacity undisclosed | 8GB GDDR5 at 218GB/s | 8GB GDDR5 at 176GB/s |

I'm very curious to see the zen performance coupled with gddr6. I would like it we could benchmark it.

Guys, Jensen has spoken. 2080 max-q is faster than this.

Considering 5700XT has 36 RDNA1 CUs at 1750 and Anacoda 56 RDNA2 at 1700, while having Jensen talking down the new consoles it will be funny to see the faces of all those splashed £1200 for their RTX2080Tis and 3080Tis.

The ps5 specs are believable but the xbox x specs seem too good to be true either way the consoles are shaping up to be decent looking power houses.

Shocked and sad.
I want to have the ps5 ( since i have the 4 ) but if is less powerfull of the xbox i won't buy it
And i won't buy a XBOX because i'm like that.
Seems weird that the difference is so big. Maybe xbox is coming with multiple version at launch?
