Xbox One more powefull then we thought?

I have come across this site and found it interesting. Stating Xbox one is more powerful then thought due to stacked GPU.

Obviously they are rumours but interesting.

What do you guys think?

Interesting as I was reading the opposite and how Titanfall is apparently better on a mid spec gaming rig than on the Xbox One.
Some comparison video's on You Tube.

I cannot post them at the moment, work block anything to do with 'Games' .....


*EDIT*

Here is one I found, not sure if it is the one I saw before. Clearly shows tearing on the XO version:

I don't think you can compare Xbone to PC yet as there is no way on earth that Titanfall is using anything like the capabilities of the xbone yet.

3rd Gen games are where the comparisons should be taken in my opinion.

[Goldberg]

Simple tearing should be avoided though. You would hope patching it later would fix it.

I will take it with a pinch of salt . Playing titanfall on the xbone and performance is frankly poor - and can only imagine ms had a big hand in helping respawn develop their flagship title . Really hoping it gets better with a patch

What I hate is that this is now the norm.. Patching games.

Back in the retro consoles days, you had none of this.

I think it doesn't matter as there isn't a game worth shit out yet anyway.

I agree with the 3rd gen comment, give the devs time to get used to the new dev tool and architecture - then they will start pushing the boundaries.

You have to take into consideration the increase in data games now carry. Its inevitable over the sheer amount of information that games have today that there will be some bugs never seen till after release.

I think its time we focused our attention on something else, with the current gen and last gen, I really cant see a massive improvement, I sort of expected this gen to handle a bit more and easily push it around at 1080p but its not even managing that.

I work in software and this is a lame excuse.
You hire more engineers and QA. This is why it costs millions to make games now.
Plus it had a public Beta... How was it not found or reported then..

[swiggy]

I'm not trying to make excuses for them I can simply understand why it happens. I've done some software programming myself (probably not to the degree you have mine was data processing and carving).

Surely that's irrelevant? Back then what seemed like a tiny amount of data by today's standards that made up the entire game, was huge! It only seems so tiny now due to the speed of advancing computing technology??

I can't claim to know because I've only had a PC and the internet for less than 10 years (true story)

When I started programming I had to worry about the 640k memory limit.... and don't get me started on Cobol ... I hated that

Maybe we'd have finally gotten a decent version of ET if they had patching back in the day

[ant3b]

what do you guys think about the direct x 12 stacked gpu if its hidden in the xbox one?

[Goldberg]

I don't believe it can be 'hidden'. Too many sites now do teardowns of hardware. How could they miss it?

[plug1]

If you look on the site the op posted , they have X-rays of the soc in the xb one, and that's where the rumour comes from .

[Goldberg]

Sure, but chips have to go through the FCC now, patents etc.. So when they do a tear down, they get a serial number, match it up and done.
If they have put something in they did not declare then it could spell trouble?

[sonysteve]

This is the second time I have read about this. Two diff sources. Finger crossed its true

1k on my zx81. Had to learn machine code as you could only fit about 20 lines of code in it -)

If this stacked gpu meant anything significant ms would be shouting from the rooftops about it after the panning the Xbox has had
