Microsoft "Turning Xbox One 10% Reserved GPU For OS To 2%"

4.6
Microsoft may offer more breathing room for developers making games for the Xbox One, according to industry insider Pete Dodd who has proven to be extremely reliable before.

10% reserved gpu getting turned into 2% soon. And with that, I’m on my last bar leaving Puerto Rico. See ya soon if St. Thomas has sprint.

“Gpu for that certain system had 10% reserved. 8% video. 2% voice. Voice will remain. That video 8% will be up to devs. As it should be.

Currently 10% of the Xbox One GPU is reserved for OS functions and Kinect and it looks like that will be reduced to 2% soon, giving developers more power.”

While this does not seem much and won’t make the Xbox One equivalent to the PS4 in processing power, every bit helps. Microsoft had earlier also increased the CPU clock speed.

Another insider Ahsan Rasheed called this a “great news for Xbox fans”. Take this is a rumour for now but these insiders have a good track record with Xbox One related stuff.

Disappointing considering the console lags when a keyboard is up in messaging. Shouldn't be taking GPU away from the OS. They tried to make it too complex, unless I'm the only one who has issues when typing out a message.

Dolph_Ziggler hmm i would be still disappointed with the one 500 euro wasted -.-


See that's the difference between xbox one and ps4 it's a great console, actually both are great, but it's all preference. Also the ps4 would've been the same price if they added the camera into the package


Still would be 50% more gpu power (42% if this rumor is true) and faster ram in the PS4, still wouldn't be equal.


50% more GPU power? Where's that info? I dont believe that...

8 more percent could do a lot for those developers. Looking forward to seeing what happens.

Thank gosh. However, the OS still isn't as responsive as I like when it comes to messages and overall interaction on the home screen. We shall see.
