Stardock CEO Brad Wardell has spoken about Microsoft's Project Scorpio, commenting that this console will not have 'any technical limitations for games'
Since the specifications of Microsoft's Project Scorpio were published, new data and some comments from within the world of video games have been released, among others. We know that this console, replacement for the XBOX One, will have hardware based on AMD technologies, such as the processor or graphics, customized by Microsoft according to your needs and that it will have 12GB of GDDR5 memory (which is usually used by graphics cards and is faster and more powerful than DDR4 memory).
Stardock CEO Brad Wardell has spoken about the console and commented that it should not have 'any technical limitations for gaming'. Wardell also assures that 'it will take several years for AAA games to appear that make use of all the power of Project Scorpio and the DirectX12 and Vulkan APIs', and has also commented that the Ashes of the Singularity game has been' the first real test from Nitrous (the graphics engine they have developed) '.
Wardell has highlighted that one of the most relevant features of DirectX 12 and the Vulkan API is the ability to load DFX objects onto the GPU through multiple threads. He has also highlighted that the current loading problems of the different software and the time it takes to load them is directly caused by textures and meshes, something that thanks to Vulkan and DX 12 can be done in parallel in the near future.
It is running a lot selling the skin of this console ahead of time and despite the fact that its 'wonderful' features are sold very well, we are talking about a processor with more than obsolete architecture and hardware that we will see how it is capable of moving 4K textures with 12GB GDDR5 of shared memory, since memory is for the processor and graphics, something that we already know well in computers and memory sharing is not something interesting in the hardware world, that is why it is chosen that the processor has its RAM memory and graphics cards their own.
