Time for the latest instalment of āshit people are saying/guessing about the next Xbox consoleā! This week we have two reports, one from IGN and the other from Fudzilla.
The IGN rumour says the next console will be out in October or November next year, and that itās graphics processor will be based on the existing Radeon HD 6670 (pictured). It also states that āIn real terms, the Xbox 720ās raw graphics processing power is expected to be six times that of the Xbox 360 and will yield 20-percent greater performance than Nintendoās forthcoming console, the Wii U.ā
The Fudzilla report, meanwhile, reckons the new Xboxās chip is called āOdanā, and that IBM and Global Foundries began manufacturing it in December 2011.
Next week? Who knows! The Wall Street Journal might say the next Xbox can bake cookies, and will be built entirely out of balsa wood at a factory in Belgium.
