The next Xbox will ship to retailers in late October or early November of next year with six times the processing power of the Xbox 360, sources close to the project have told IGN.

Following initial reports from tech blogs Fudzilla and SemiAccurate, our sources have confirmed that mass production of the system's GPU will indeed begin by the end of 2012 but will not, however, be based on AMD's 7000 series Southern Islands GPU. Instead, the processor will be derived from the 6000 series, which was introduced last year. More specifically, it will be akin to the Radeon HD 6670, which offers support for DirectX11, multidisplay output, 3D and 1080p HD output. The chip currently has a market price of upwards of $79.99.

Lmfao 6 times as powerful, and that's with an outdated chip.  So that means by the time the xbox releases our computers will be 10x as powerful.

10 times? That's such a low ball estimate haha. Let them think they are getting the best deal when they pay 500 for a brand new one lawls

while we can laugh at how puny consoles are in power, we cant knock them on value.  PC gaming is grossly more expensive.  And a lot of people...OP...are still running hardware that isnt too far away from the consoles.  Consoles definitely offer value by mass producing millions of the identical boxes.

Im looking at upgrading right now, and realize that I will spend 600-700 just for a high-midrange mobo, cpu, and ramm.  that doesnt even include all the other crap i already have.
