Revealed at the end of July from a large leakage, APU Magnus that should equip the next Xbox should help further in transforming the platform. According to Digital Foundry, the choice of design made Peal Microsoft in partnership with AMD must bring your platform even more to the world of PCs.
The vehicle explains that the feature that most draws attention in the leak is the fact that the system works with separate DIES for your CPU and GPU. This is an unusual choice for the console world, which in the last generations have concentrated both functions in a single chip.
Thus, while the next Xbox may have an increase in its entry price, It should also be much more flexible. Digital Foundry estimates Microsoft aims to bring the pre-assembled PC platform closer, betting on more varied models and with more frequent updates.
With this, the company would find a kind of “middle ground” between the way it currently works and its future plans. While technically it would not give up its space in the console world, it would also offer the public the flexibility that is associated with the space of personal computers.
Xbox can adopt a new “phase” system
Digital Foundry also claims to believe that if the idea behind Magnus works among consumers, Microsoft can abandon the concept of generations. Given the flexibility of upgrades that the new system can bring, the company would work more with “phases” linked to specific hardware combinations.
The vehicle goes beyond, stating that the concept will also privilege AMD in the space of traditional PCs. If the company can deliver a powerful “complete package” and more financially accessible than its separate offers, it can earn many consumers who would traditionally bet on a pre-hot PC.
This could even change the concept of “war of console”, as Sony’s PS6 would not be exactly the main competitor of the new generation of Xbox. Obviously, Everything is still in the phase of “well-informed speculation”which may change if Microsoft and AMD decide to follow another way.
What gives leakage credibility that it fits well with the recent strategy that states that “everything is an Xbox.” In addition, the higher proximity to PCs gives credit to reports that the company is preparing to open its ecosystem so that competing stores like Steam also become accessible to consumers.
