XBox 360
The XBox360 has finally been released from Microsoft. but, and although many sites are giving beautiful detailed reviews on the gameplay, I'm here to review the hardware chosen. (all specifications courtesy of www.gaminghorizon.com)
The system has a whopping tri-core 3.2GHz CPU, an IBM PowerPC based processor, with 1024KB of L2 Cache. This processor is capable of pulling 9 billion dots per second.
Unlike the original XBox, the 360 has an ATi-based graphics processor, running at 500MHz, with 10MB of DRAM and an amazing 48 pipelines (the ATi Radeon x850xt only has 16)
The system comes with another 512MB of dedicated 700MHz GDDR3 (Graphics) RAM.
The audio leaves a little something to be desired, not even reaching the quality of a cheap SoundBlaster Live! (96Khz 24-bit audio). The integrated sound card on the XBox 360 is only 48Khz, 16-bit audio.
If you choose to upgrade to the $399. XBox 360 non-core system, you get a 20GB hard drive, wireless controllers and the ability to play XBox 1 games.
