Lmao you think DX12 will have 0% on XB1 hahahahahaha cmon son why even bother adding it to XB1 then.By your logic MS is adding DX12 jst for shit's n giggles hey gamers we are going to add DX12 to XB1 but its just a title change and fancy buzz words it won't do anything for XB1. use logic all gains will be similar to pc. People think because XB1 is close to the metal already that it wont see changes SMH. Listen on XB1 right now low access and all only one core is talking to gpu @ a tim...

Thought Pc gamers are the master race turns out they are the master beggars. I have a PC but this is ridiculous they call Console gamers peasants but yet owning a PC gets you less blockbuster title whereas Consoles get way more exclusives. Pc gamers are the peasants with less quality exclusives lol .

According to slides DX12 brings Higher FPS using more Cpu cores to finish work faster,more cpu time spent on game code and allows all cpu cores to speak to Gpu simultaneously.They go on to further say idle gpu resources do work instead of waiting their turn,parallel workloads jobs get finish faster = more performance.On page 16 from slide XB1 is there confirming GCN architecture and stating DirectX 12 ready. So this is official XB1 gets full dx12 !!!

yup pixel quality maters more than the res. 720p to 1080p there is a difference to be seen but 900p with good pixel quality and good upscaling from XB1 you cant see it unless you pause put both on screen and bring out magnifying glass. The 2 best looking next gen games Ryse and The order are not even 1080p yet destroy the other games out. True gamers should know that its textures, pixel quality, lighting and effects with good FPs that make a game look good. A game can have 1080p but with bad ...

ya my onkyo takes way to long to power up. everything goes through there first. I would have had to re wire cords but your right should have done it that way. but once booted I could play gta from resume in 1 sec video clearly shows it was instant. would have been much quicker to leave tv on and just turn XB1 off. Anyways I welcome this feature to my Ps4. Next step is multitasking cause if you open another app you have to close the game still on Xb1 only if I choose another game does it clos...

Here is suspend resume on XB1 with GTA. Look how fast it shuts down and boots up. I have kinnect so when I turn off it also turns off my receiver and tv so boot time would be even faster if just XB1. Notice once I am booted up instantly I can resume my game. This is a great feature for all gamers I am only pointing out that it is faster on XB1 due to people claiming its faster on PS4. When you look @ the video u will see my PS4 next to my XB1 so you guys can quit on fanboy allegations. Also h...

XB1 suspend resume is is 1-3 secs.I turn on system then say xbox play game and within 1-3 secs im playing from where I left off. Anyone saying otherwise does not have a XB1. my XB1 turns off within 5 secs unless there are updates pending then it takes 10 secs to turn off. Bottom line it's faster on XB1 due to 8g nand flash dedicated to suspend and resume . the video that was posted with 16 secs for xb1 he had a update pending thats why when he booted it up it did not go back to where he l...

Seriously 2.99 for a theme SMH. Clearly this is a cash grab thank goodness I got my free 20th anniversary playstation dynamic theme for free.

what are you talking about?Dx12 brings new tools new methods of doing things.The tools allow the cpu to do more work with less power.Right now XB1 has 7 cores that can access the GPU 1 does 70% others around 10-20%.DX12 splits the work out equally across all cores.So now you have 7 cores each doing 40% each devs can ramp it up to 60% each and so on. This alone will give it a boost and is something that can't be done now but DX12 enables it this is baked in man.Esram gets 15% boost this al...

so astonishing to see people say it will improve PC but not XB1 smh. First it is a new API so right there you get new features and better efficiency. Yes PC gains will be more due to it not being as close to the metal but XB1 will have substantial gains too.DX12 is more about all the cpu cores being used equally instead of 1 doing 70% of the work so this has nothing to do with being to metal as much as it has to do with unused cores being used DX12 brings bundles can XB1 do that now no also t...

Crap greatness awaits again..They should not have announced it but they wanted to get PS4 sold and hype up the fanbase. I was really looking forward to this game. I really enjoy ND games but TBH I think it's delayed because Tomb raider(behind closed doors)looks better and they probably want to release this with morpheus. Which IMO is a big gamble. XB1 has a stellar holiday lineup so much so they say they may push things back. Halo 5 is reported to look amazing. Holiday 2015 we see the fir...

Wow bad background textures and PS4 is missing AF again.The POP up is pretty bad hopefully gets more work put into it ..

To the people saying DX12 improvement is for pc only you are wrong.Yes the pc will see the biggest increase but XB1 will have improvements too.yes XB1 is closer to the metal than pc but DX12 brings so many new tools also new feature levels that XB1 does not currently have.Yes XB1 can do some of the things that DX12 does right now but not many of them and the features they can get now are nowhere near efficient as DX12.Tiled resources tier 2 and 3 cant be done now or bundles that DX12 enables...
