<p>The specs of the Xbox One were detailed at the Xbox Reveal that just ended (at least, at the time of writing this). The system is said to be 8x as more powerful as the current Xbox 360, in terms of graphical power and, going by the specs, it&#8217;s hard to argue that the Xbox One isn&#8217;t better than the Xbox 360.</p>

<li><span style="line-height: 13px;">8 Core CPU</span></li>
<li>8GB RAM</li>
<li>500 GB Hard Drive</li>
<li>Blu-Ray Drive</li>
<li>802.11n wireless with Wi-Fi Direct</li>
<li>HDMI In/Out</li>
<li>USB 3.0</li>
</ul>
<p>According to a story from <a href="http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/05/xbox-one/">Wired</a>, the bigger hard drive and blu-ray drive were both designed in-house. Additionally:</p>
<p>&#8220;A single 40-nanometer chip contains both the CPU and GPU rather than the two dedicated 90-nm chips needed in the 360. In fact, a custom SOC (system on a chip) module made by AMD contains the CPU/GPU chip, the memory, the controller logic, the DRAM, and the audio processors, and connects directly to the heat sink via a phase-change interface material.&#8221;</p>
