Microsoft's upcoming console, the Xbox Project Scorpio is expected to be implemented with various changes in terms of onboard hardware and performance. With a slightly higher price tag of that of a console, Microsoft aims to take their console to the next level by offering a similar feature set that can compete with the PC only to an extent.
New reports from the internet indicate that Xbox Project Scorpio will likely be implemented with AMD's Freesync display technology and also HDMI2.1 technology with a variable refresh rate of VRR. In short, Freesync technology is developed by AMD very much like how Nvidia have their own G-sync technology, but the final costs of it still favor the red team.
Details from Digital Trends feels whatever changes are introduced to the new Xbox Project Scorpio console, the ultimate decision will still depend on the developer to actively support the change which will see an increase in the quality of gaming experience. Microsoft has preferred AMD for their processing and graphical needs for some time and will not likely change anytime soon.
Meanwhile, Eurogamer explains the working process of both the new inclusions on the upcoming Xbox Project Scorpio console. Freesync matches up the frames on a display when a system's graphics chip is out of sync with the frame rate of a display where the technology helps in rendering the right amount of frames based on the refresh rate of the display. This will eliminate screen tearing and stuttering.
HDMI 2.1 is another new inclusion, however, the current standard isn't supported by a majority of modern displays yet. Hence, for those potential customers looking to opt for the new console, it will also likely result in an upgrade of their living room display.
Xbox Project Scorpio aims to bring in a lot of changes to offer a new level of console experience for those people who stick to consoles for their daily gaming needs. Xbox's current generation console is the newer variant of Xbox One, the Xbox One S that comes in an all-white color now.
