[RUMOR ONLY] Recent leaks indicate that Microsoft is preparing a family of next-generation gaming devices, rather than a single flagship platform. There have been no official announcements from the manufacturer yet, so all conclusions are based on analytical reasoning and a comparison of hardware specifications. We believe the lineup will be divided into a high-end hybrid flagship, the Project Helix X, priced around $1000, and a more affordable digital Xbox Project Helix S, priced between $499 and $599. We believe that in terms of raw computing power, ray tracing efficiency, and upscaling algorithms, the junior console will outperform both the base Xbox Series X and the mid-range PlayStation 5 Pro.

With 20GB of GDDR7 and a 1TB SSD and a 3nm AMD SOC? I think not. Nor will the high-end model be anywhere near $1k. They'd take a huge loss on each in order to... subsidize a machine that runs Steam games. 🤣

But if they did deliver on all that... Bye, bye Sony. 👋🏼

Does seem cheap for the price of components today, maybe leaker found old details before Ai killed the markets, or maybe M$ is just gonna take a loss to sell they systems. They have in the past, taken a loss on consoles. Who knows, its just leaks/ rumors right now.

I mean the fact I see "TFLOPS" and idek wtf that is, I want to say its AI
We can also look into the situation of the more expensive one doing up to 240fps. That requires a display hitting 240Hz. I don't think there are many TVs that support that without a compromise in another area, like dropping to 1080p, but that's through DLG technology. Can gaming monitors achieve that? Yes, but the ad is putting too much emphasis on TVs, not monitors.

The more I look at this, the more I don't believe it.
 
Personally, when the block for 20GB GDDR7 + 1TB SSD is shown twice, I get the feeling that this isn't real.
Entire website is kinda shouting sketch and ran by one guy to make money on ads. Their copyright says 2009 but the only archive log is 2023? Even temp has screen captures from 2006 lol. Probably not a liable source and or Ai rumor.

Future reference may want to add Rumor prefix to titles so it's sounding less like an official "leak"

That DEI hire (Asha Sharma) had no say in anything related to the next gen.That was decided way before her arrival as CEO.The only thing she controls now is whether steam is gonna be there or not.Even the CD debacle and key thing was decided before her.
