Xbox One is built to last for 10 years while powered on, sources say
2013-08-02 19:31:01| Extremetech
It seems Microsoft learned its lesson with the high failure rates of Xbox 360s, and plans on keeping the hardware low-power, cool, and well ventilated. Reportedly, Microsoft wants each Xbox One system to last for ten years even with the console turned on the entire time.
Xbox One and PS4 hardware specs are essentially the same, says John Carmack

According to John Carmack, the PS4 and Xbox One hardware is "essentially the same." This comes at an interesting time, as Microsoft has just boosted the Xbox One's GPU to keep up with the PS4's significantly (~50%) more powerful GPU. In the same keynote talk, Carmack makes two other interesting observations: Three or four years ago, he thought that Intel would make a play for the console space with its (now-DOA) Larrabee GPU -- or, alternatively, that the Xbox One and PS4 could easily have been based on "super-mobile architectures", with "16 ARM cores" and "a whole bunch of PowerVR graphics cores."
Xbox One GPU gets modest boost in power to combat PS4 supremacy, Microsoft confirms

After the changes the Xbox One has already gone through since its initial reveal, we wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft changed literally anything about the Xbox One. Today, Microsoft confirms that the console's GPU will receive a modest boost in power.

For the first time, fewer Americans subscribed to cable and satellite TV last year than did the year before, according to The Diffusion Group.
PS4 vs. Xbox One performance compared, using representative PC hardware
2013-07-30 17:23:30| Extremetech
The Xbox One and PS4 have very similar hardware specs. When it comes to the GPUs, however, there's a clear-cut leader: the GPU in the PS4 has 50% higher peak performance than the GPU in the Xbox One. As you probably know, though, peak performance isn't an indicator of real-world frame rate improvements or image quality -- that's why Digital Foundry set out to replicate the Xbox One and PS4, using PC hardware, to see whether the PS4 actually has the edge.
