DirectX 12 is coming next year, but it probably wont help Xbox One games run at 1080p
2014-08-05 21:55:47| Extremetech
At this year's Game Developers Conference, Microsoft laid out the plans for its upcoming DirectX 12 release for Windows and Xbox One. Developers will be able to use these new APIs to boost performance when DX12 is released in the fall of 2015, but will it make a meaningful difference? Is this the magic bullet the Xbox One needs for 1080p releases? Unfortunately, the men and women in the trenches don't seem to think so.
Could Microsoft upgrade the Xbox Ones hardware to fix the PS4 performance gap?
2014-08-05 18:05:05| Extremetech
As you are well aware, there is a sizable gap between the hardware specifications of the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. But who says this will always be the case? It's not unusual for a console to be tweaked or upgraded multiple times throughout its lifetime as new (cheaper) hardware becomes available. Because both consoles use fairly standard PC hardware, could Sony or Microsoft upgrade their consoles to close (or widen) the current performance gap?
