Xbox One Specs Released, 8 GB of Memory Included

May 21, 2013 by Josiah Renaudin

All the technical aspects of the Xbox One have been revealed.

Just how powerful will the next-generation Xbox One be compared to what we currently have in our homes? We’re yet to see any solid gameplay footage of what an Xbox One game actually looks like, but Microsoft was nice enough to supply the world with all of the console’s specs today during the massive Xbox event that aired on TV and popular streaming websites.

So, let’s dig in. There will be an 8 core CPU, 500 GB HDD, and an 8 GB memory system. Yes, that’s a lot more powerful than the Xbox 360. Most importantly, it’s faster, which was a fact that Microsoft wanted to inform its viewers of over and over again through the use of its live TV application. Everything should run smoother than ever before, and games should also look crisper.

How does this compare to Sony’s PlayStation 4, though? Here are the specs Sony provided in February:

Main Processor: Single-chip custom processor
CPU: x86-64 AMD "Jaguar,' 8 cores
GPU: 1.84 TFLOPS, AMD next-generation RAdeon-based graphics engine
Memory: GDDR5 8GB
Hard Drive: Built-in
Optical Drive (read only): BD 6xCAV, DVD 8xCAV
I/O: Super-Speed USB (USB 3.0), AUX
Communication: Ethernet (10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX, 1000BASE-T), IEEE 8.02.11 b/g/n, Bluetooth 2.1 (EDR)
AV output: HDMI, Analog-AV out, Digital Output (optical)

As you can see, the memory and number of cores are identical. From what we’ve seen so far, it doesn’t seem like the architecture of the two consoles is that far off. However, we really won’t know what any of it actually means until the games start hitting.
