XBox Video Speed Drop

by Steve Gibson Jan 04, 2001 8:03am CST tags: Xbox
Microsoft has decided to change the specs on the XBox once again, this time around they drop the speed of the videocard a bit (from 300 to 250) and there was also a recent change of the CPU speed:

The honest truth is that the goal that we always had for the system was 3x the graphical and computational performance of PlayStation 2. Initially, we thought that a 600MHz CPU and a 300MHz GPU was about right.

We should hopefully be seeing a bunch more information on the XBox at the upcoming CES event.
