here it is our first ever up close and personal meeting with the Xbox one X also known as Project Scorpio Microsoft says the One X is the most powerful console on the market and from a real estate standpoint it's the smallest Xbox they've ever made it's actually surprisingly compact but only slightly smaller compared to the Xbox one s and speaking of the s the 1x definitely takes its design cues from the former but in an all matte black finish around back the ports are nearly identical to the s and there's still one USB upfront but it's what's under the hood that makes the 1x so important it's substantially more powerful in every category including a custom 2.3 gigahertz eight core CPU and a custom GPU with six teraflops of computing power this lets the console play games like the upcoming Forza Motorsport 7 in 4k and at 60 frames per second it also packs in a 4k UHD blu-ray drive and a one terabyte drive Microsoft is really leaning into the notion that the One X is the most powerful console around and says games will look best on it it will also improve the performance and looks of older Xbox one games which means you won't necessarily need a 4k TV to take advantage of the upgrades but just like the ps4 pro the Xbox one X is just a step-up console it'll still play all the existing Xbox one games and make use of the same accessories but price at $4.99 compared to the ps4 pro at 399 it might be a difficult sell right out of the gate
