The Xbox Series X it will be Microsoft's next console, although some rumors suggest that there is another version yet to be announced, less powerful, known by the code name «Lockheart«. Today a the new APU for AMD which, because of its features, would be very good a processor that powers either of these two comforts from Microsoft, so let's analyze the information that has seemed familiar.
This acquired APU is a custom and non-commercial model, so it has all the voting to be a drag processor. I have An eight-core Ryzen CPU at 4 GHz

Xbox One Series X or Lockheart?
It is debatable whether this AMD APD may be the one that powers Microsoft's next console or thinks it has less power like the Lockheart we mentioned earlier, but there are also those who say it could be a console APU. Subor Z +. With the Subor development team being abandoned long ago, it seems that the latter option is unpopular and all suggest that it will move to another Microsoft is comforting.
Surprisingly, some references to this APU have popped up, especially on 3DMark 11 and Time Spy. The results are not surprising, but it does put together an integrated GPU for APU same level as the GTX 980, which isn't bad with the console and more with the integrated APU. However, a the time-consuming test result It shows the highest performance.
According to this data, the APU gets 7,100 points with Time Spy. As a comparison, the Core i9-9900K with the GTX 1660 Ti OC gets 7,500 points, while the RX 5600M with the 4800H gets only 5,600 points.
In any case, at that 7,100 points it seems that the working SMT was not in a position to get into the RX 5600 XT performance, which puts the GPU of this APU between 7 and 8 TFLOP of power, AMD Navi GPU. These numbers put the APU a bit below what was promised for the Xbox Series X, which means it probably points more to that less powerful version called Lockheart that, when light comes on, it is likely that they will eventually do so under the name Xbox Series S.
We'll see what happens because, as Microsoft has already announced, this console will go on sale this year, though the company hasn't announced yet another version we're talking about (but it's expected to do that soon).
