According to Microsoft, Xbox Series X is just a generic term for next-generation game console development projects, and multiple models will be released like Xbox One / Xbox One S / Xbox One X. The first product to be released as such an Xbox Series X is scheduled to be released with AMD microarchitectureZen 2 processor and NAVI generation GPU, up to 8K resolution and high speed GDDR6 memory It is equipped with a game console that achieves '4x' faster performance than Xbox One X. The name of this game console is reported to be 'Xbox'.

Clearly that the official name of Microsoft's next-generation game machine will be `` Xbox '' instead of `` Xbox Series X ''-gigazine



AMD , a semiconductor manufacturer, provides CPUs and GPUs for such Xbox Series X. AMD unveiled a rendering of the Xbox Series X at CES 2020, which has been held in Las Vegas, USA since January 7, 2020.

This is the rendering image of Xbox Series X released by AMD.



In this rendered image, the details of the back, which were unknown in the past, are reflected, and here you can see 2 HDMI ports and 2 USB Type-C ports.



In response to this rendered image, many media reported that 'Xbox Series X has two HDMI ports and two USB Type-C ports on the back.'




However, AMD acknowledges that this rendered image is not official, provided by Microsoft, but is a fake rendered image output from a fake model obtained at TurboSquid of 3D model distribution site.

Since AMD plans to provide a custom designed CPU for Xbox Series X, it is `` shameful act '' that such companies have released fake rendered images, saying that the foreign media The Verge points out.

A few hours before AMD released the fake rendered image, Phil Spencer, the chief of the Xbox division, changed his Twitter account icon to an APU photo for Xbox Series X You. The APU in this photo is labeled '8K', which makes it clear that the next-generation game console will be 8K compatible.
