Microsoft Looking To Improve Xbox One's DRAM Performance

Microsoft looking to improve the Xbox One's performance further.

[Volkama]

Good lord what a terrible attempt at pretending you're technical.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Looked at who the article is from....no doubt they are spinning another tale from a job listing. I do my best to avoid their stuff of late.

[Volkama]

It's not just that. The article itself tries oh-so hard to sound smart, but it is barely "coherent".

Unfortunately you'd have to read it understand what I've done there, and I can't recommend you bother. You are precisely right about it being based off a job listing.

[Ashlen]

Seriously, gaming bolt is so full of it, they always write these type of articles using some type of techno jargon and/or taking quotes out of context.

It's so blatant there motivation, take even the tiniest most trivial bit of information and spin it and trump it up to make Xbox look better, even in the "Sony" articles they write always have a slant that tries to downplay everything and one up it with something from Microsoft.

During the last election the popular thing to do was for cooperations and wealthy donors to make a bunch of "grassroots" looking sites run buy a small group of people to fool people, but that were funded entirely by the for-mentioned groups secretly by proxie.

I have often wondered if gamingbolt and a handful of other sites that just constantly trump up MS are the same type of deal.

[Volkama]

GamingBolt don't promote MS or Sony more than the other. They are also the ones responsible for 99% of the "x indie likes amazing 8GB GDDR!" spam too.

Their goal is always to create headlines on whatever draws in the fanboys. ESRAM/GDDR, 1080p, Weak CPU, Cloud, DirectX 12. From there the tone of the article can go either way, whatever they think will get the biggest reaction.

[Ashlen]

Your probably right of course, that is the more rational and logical answer, but still....

Edited: Actually no, (for clicks or not) I still think they are totally biased. And I still wouldn't be surprised if a large part of there funding in some way comes from Microsoft. Like Polygon who presents itself as neutral but their actions dictate otherwise.

[Pogmathoin]

Gamingbolt does not favour PS or MS, its just a junk site, its people here that do the promoting/downplaying.....

[MeliMel]

You seem like a bitter fanboy its obvious you are the one who doesn't like Xbox and are trying to start something.

[chrish1990]

Not to mention the lack of crediting other sites. Really pisses me off to see my own work passed off as somebody elses, you would think after doing this for so long they would have some sort of standards.

[Ps4andxb1]

Take everything you've just said.

Swap MS with Sony and Gamingbolt with N4G and you'd be somewhat more accurate.

[RjK311jR]

i basically said the same thing but on their site

[3-4-5]

* Somebody needs to make a site that is just a list of all the other trash sites that make crap up.

* It would be all facts though....those sites couldn't deny their lying....there would be multiple pieces of evidence against them via their own postings,articles and everything else on their website.

They would have to argue against themselves and either way they would look bad.

* just a thought though.....

[nitus10]

I think the words "techno babel" comes to mind or better yet "WTF".

I think the only saving grace? to the whole article was the following. "Will Microsoft narrow down the gap even further in 2015? This is something that remains to be seen."

Basically "waffle, waffle, waffle" and now to cover my backside.

Sigh!!

[Bigpappy]

I don't see anything that verifies it it Xbox related. M$ has several hardware products.

[christocolus]

lol..its quite easy to tell when an article is from gamingbolt or dualshockers. one loves to interview devs about 1080p, esram,system specs and hardware matters in general while the other focuses on job listings, twitter posts,sales and uses words like eye popping, awesome,spectacular, breathtaking and amazing to headline its articles.

[OC_MurphysLaw]

Bravo...100% support this comment.

[Scottyxboxoneandps4]

@ Bigpappy
It specifically says in the job listing link that it's part of the XBOX development team. Just thought I'd point that out.

[Bigpappy]

When I click on the "job listing" link, it opens to a blank page for me. May be my popup or active x blocker. But I am referring to the article and what they choose to quote.

[smoothop]

MS are really starting to head in the right direction, sometimes it takes the odd mistake to learn and start improving things. Both Sony and MS have had their ups and downs but I think we can clearly see they are making a real effort to provide us gamers with a great experience.

[Ryan741]

Xbox one keeps going forward......while others sit on their hands.

[Nekroo91]

Yap they keep going forward towards the clouds thats for sure /s

[aerisbueller]

'XBox one keeps trying to play catchup......while others sit on their throne.'

there, fixed it for you.

All console manufacturers continually try to improve their SDKs, usually silently. It's only when MS does it that fanboy articles pop up, because they prey on fanboys waiting with baited breath for MS to do something miraculous to negate the gulf of power between their hardware and their competitor's.

I think MS has been doing great on all fronts ever since Phil and Satya came along, but I seriously can't believe there are still fanboys thinking some magical thing will happen to make the hardware catch up. This despite Phil making so many efforts to be candid about managing expectations. Must be embarrassing for the sane XBox fans.

[generalthadeape]

Volkama is right.

"Coherent" is the exactly the opposite of what this article is.

I can understand the attempt at trying to tie the job posting with the idea that Microsoft is trying to optimize memory management, but it fails miserably to make any sense in the long run.

Their explanation of Xbox One's memory management sounds about the same as how my wife would explain how the 4 wheel drive on my truck works when she could barely switch the stations on my radio.

God love them for trying, but damn I can't take this stuff seriously any more!

[Hibsboy85]

Just the usual negative attitude towards microsoft for no reason

[tha_meat_beater]

Microsoft 6 month ago: xbox 1 will get big performance boost

Microsoft this month: xbox 1 will get bigger performance boost

Microsoft 6 month from now: xbox 1 will get biggerest performance boost

Microsoft 1 year from now: xbox 1 will get.........

[MeliMel]

......Xbox One is finally finished and relaunched.

[FanboyKilla]

Lmfao you guys are consistent, ill give you that. 99.5% of the comments so far, are sonyfans bashing ms and gamingbolt. alll because gamingbolt put out an article about xone possibly getting better. c moooooon, do you see how silly you look? you swarm into this article like flies to shite, and turned the comment section into it.

[zero_gamer]

"Microsoft 1 year from now: xbox 1 will get........."

Quality first party games?

[RjK311jR]

its called optimization, learning best practices from peers and trial & error, its a process that occurs during all console life cycles. Most of us, or should i say like myself probably wouldnt have the patient, imagine spending months days or years on something and it just doesn't work!

[RjK311jR]

Correct me if i'm wrong but based on Microsoft's friendly monetization article just posted doesn't this mean that this article does not in fact count towards ad-rev anyways because its using the actual xbox one as an image? man all that hard work for nada lol guess click-bait has to be worded better

[joefrost00]

What gap cause correct me if im wrong but
COD
ACU
Far cry 4 ran better on xbox
From what I saw
Even in the ps4 version of far cry they took certain effects like god rays and bloom to make the framerate better
And to this day xbox has the best looking console game
I have both systems and from what I have seen its a system with an power advantage but its not the ps4

[quenomamen]

So 3 out of the last 20 or so multiplats run better on X1 ? I'd still call that a gap.

[joefrost00]

Its the timing of it
Its not 3 out of 20 scattered
Its the latest and with devs coming out and saying MS dev tools and SDKs were shitty with the fact you are using off the shelf familiar parts vs customize system
It only makes sense that you would see an advantage in the beginning now everything I said is fact not opinion
Its not debatable

[MasterCornholio]

"I have both systems and from what I have seen its a system with an power advantage but its not the ps4"

Nope it is the PS4. Only PC is more powerful than it.

:I

But I agree with people that the difference isn't massive.

[corroios]

one runs with dynamic rez and another doesnt...

[ironmonkey]

Lol so why isnt advanced warfare not native 1080p on that xboxone. Getting 2 extra frames dont mean shit so lets hear it. Why does ps4 have the majority of 1080p games?. Lets hear it.

[joefrost00]

Dude can you tell the difference between the two
I doubt it dynamic resolution was put in place for the framerate which more important
That has been said by almost every reviewer it runs better on xbox
I rather have dynamic resolution than dynamic framerate
Also 1080p aint shit the best looking games are not even in 1080
Ryse
The order
SSOD
KZ
KZ is one massive reason I you guys cant tell the difference between 1080 and some thats not cause it wasnt one person saying KZ was not 1080 before it came out
But that's with most of these games y'all cant tell until someone tells you all
A couple its easy to spot but most you cant tell
So you have a bunch of idiots arguing over something they cant even see with there own eyes
Lol

[Spotie]

Except Killzone WAS 1080p. Find a new argument.

[joefrost00]

No it wasnt
That is why sony got sued for false advertisement do you want the link
