AMD based Xbox Series X could have 3584 shader processors

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 XXbox 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.

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

If this is true, it's for the first time ever that a console is on-par with high-end PCs in computing power.

What a moment to be alive ! (and a gamer...)

Wonder how true this is. considering price points of consoles normally, unless the X series X is going to be in the £600-£800 range? that or they are willing to take a massive hit from sales. It wouldnt shock me if they come out being weaker than this, though guess id be a bit shocked if xbox and ps5 have massively different compute levels

Well as we know from previous generations Sony and Microsoft are fine with selling at a loss since that gets more people in the ecosystem which eventually brings more revenue, and usually after the first year or so the price of the components drops so they are no longer sold at a loss.
