Microsoft will deliver 10 GB of bandwidth at 560 GB/s, or 6GB at 336 GB/s. For storage, the Xbox Series X is using a custom NVME SSD with 1 TB of capacity. The SSD seems fast too, with 2.4 GB/s RAW, but that as much as doubles to 4.8 GB/s when the console uses compression with a custom hardware decompression block.

The revolutionary removable SSD storage system

The SSD storage was coming and we all knew that but Microsoft has changed the concept of adapting to the same 1TB storage and has adapted the concept of removable expansion cards made in partnership with hard drive specialist Seagate.

Built in partnership with Seagate, this 1 TB custom storage solution expands the storage capacity of Xbox Series X with the full speed and performance of the Xbox Velocity Architecture. Previous generation Xbox titles can still be played directly from external USB 3.2 hard drives. However, to receive all the benefits of the Xbox Velocity Architecture and optimal performance, Xbox Series X, optimized games should be played from the internal SSD or Xbox Series X Storage Expansion Card.

The new Xbox Series X is on par with high-end gaming PCs and can give smooth 4K gaming experience along with hardware-accelerated Raytracing. Its helped by the fast storage and its new system architecture named ‘Velocity Architecture’, which is both designed with high bandwidth and flexibility in mind.

The 1TB NVMe SSD supports the new PCIe 4.0 standard with a throughput of up to 64 GB/s at 16 GHz. The Xbox Series X also supports all-new external storage expansion cards that are also NVMe SSDs with same fast transfer speeds. In the first instance, these expansion cards will be provided exclusively by Seagate in capacities of up to 1 TB. 

Microsoft has boasted 40 seconds of load time improvement over the Xbox One X with the ability to resume at least three games instantaneously from standby using RAM caching. Overall the new generation of gaming consoles is both fast and flexible, good news for all you gamers!

The new Xbox Series X Controller

Microsoft has also upgraded its renowned “the gold standard” of controllers to make it even better. To improve your gaming experience, Microsoft has added a new D-Pad and a dedicated share button.

The new share button helps to take screenshots and record video clips at any time. Microsoft’s new addition of a “tactical dot pattern” to the triggers and bumpers promises to provide the controller with a grippier feel.

All you have to know about the new Xbox Series X Controller

The Xbox Series X controller’s sculpted overall design makes it easier for people with smaller hands to hold. Due to Bluetooth Low Energy support, connecting the controller to a wide variety of PC, Android, and iOS devices should also be easier than ever.

The controller’s biggest technical highlight is the DLI (Dynamic Latency Input), which should make for some of the most responsive console gaming yet seen.

Another area in which gamers are always looking for connectivity improvements is reducing latency. We’re introducing a system-wide set of improvements we call Dynamic Latency Input (DLI), which includes specific technology in the console and the HDMI connection to your TV. And it all starts with the controller. Essentially, information is sent more frequently from the controller and matched with the exact frames of your game on-screen. The result: we shave off precious milliseconds at every step of gameplay, and actions are even more instantaneous.

The company has also included USB Type-C port and the Xbox Series X controller appears to be a worthwhile upgrade from the existing Xbox Wireless Controller. Microsoft is yet to confirm the price of this new controller that is expected to launch alongside the Xbox Series X later this year.

The Launch

The Xbox team has formally announced a November launch of the new gaming console. The upcoming Xbox Series X supports the games from its previous generation Xboxes i.e. Xbox One, Xbox 360, and the generation one Xbox.

You can get thousands of games across four generations of content as a part of the next generation of console gaming. Microsoft Xbox’s back compat team helps to “develop new innovations that can be applied to a curated list of titles” and so helping helping to play your favourite game on the new gaming console with a new experience even though it is years’ older.

Xbox Series X specifications confirmed: Zen 2 & RDNA 2 architecture in use

These optimizations include the ability to render titles with increased resolutions up to 4K, delivering new HDR reconstruction techniques to games that were developed years before HDR came into existence, applying anisotropic filtering to improve image quality, and creating ways to increase or double the frame rate of certain titles.

The Partner Project Management Director of Xbox Team Road, Jason Ronald said, “Through collaboration with the Xbox Advanced Technology Group, Xbox Series X provides a new and innovative HDR reconstruction technology that allows the platform to automatically add HDR support to games.”

The new technology is so much innovative that it does its job by itself so that no impact falls to the game. It also can be implemented in the games of the previous Xbox versions. Ronald added, “Because the platform handles the technology itself, we can enable HDR with zero impact on game performance. We can also apply it to Xbox 360 and the original Xbox games which are nearly 20 years old. Long before HDR exists.”

Microsoft's upcoming Xbox Scarlett will have Ray Tracing and 8K Support
