Looks like it has liquid cooling. Specs are great.

But at the same time. I cannot find a reason to buy this when I can just play all the games on PC. It will improve old games. Even without a patch. Load times should be faster, maybe better textures, slightly, etc... And a lot of games are supposedly supposed to run at PC equivalent ultra at native 4K, 60FPS. But I don't care that much about graphics. If you look at most games, it's the same game on PC, there are some differences, but it's not a huge leap.

Any of you interested in buying this?

It's literally just a watered down "Console Crusher" PC. Also:

>Using AMD CPUs

No wonder it needs liquid cooling, the damn console is still gonna be a heater unit in your room just like the XB1 and 360.

Me and everyone else I know have to turn off our XB1 after a certain amount of time because it emits a lot of heat. It's practically unplayable during the savage Florida summer.

Well it's got better specs than my current computer, which I haven't upgraded in a few years. I'd like to see a price before I get too excited, but I do like the trend towards more PC-like consoles. Eventually I'd like to see Microsoft just release a home entertainment computer with the ability to be a console (with the typical interface and features) as well as a PC. I think $500 would be a solid price, though I don't intend to buy it.

Get an old toothbrush and clear out any dust that might have built up in the fan.

It gets warm for me, but not to the point where I have to turn on the AC 9Could be the cool Irish climate too)
I keep it on top of the TV stand and it has plenty of 'breathing' room and I clean it regularly.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
Lol MS completely overlooking the problem with Xbox as it is.

The angel agreed to trade a set of white wings for the head of another demon. Overjoyed, the demon killed one of his own and plucked the head right off its still-warm body.

The angel then led the demon to heaven, where he underwent centuries of the cruelest tortures imaginable. Finally, the pain was so great that he lost consciousness - at which point his dark wings turned the promised shade of white.
Ultra 4K 60 FPS. Yes indeed, like the PS4 Pro with its upscaled 4K.

Todds lies reach far.

I thought it was shown to be true 4k this time?

i think theyre just going to go full pc gaming eventually given they realized their strength in the os market will always be games and just ditch the consoles

not saying theyll stop making their own hardware but what it might mean is gaming-specific computers by them running the desktop os with some extra features while pushing their windows store
