Any word on the extra 10%? X1..

Microsoft mentioned they will be freeing up an extra 10% of head room on the GPU for devs. As this is space held for kinect, if the developers decide to not use kinect in a game should they not automatically be afforded that extra 10%?

I believe the smaller GPU is the only downside to the X1 so I was just wondering if anyone had seen or heard anymore on the issue?

How would the Kinect be impacting the GPU? CPU, maybe, but I think you've got your story a little muddled. And whether a game uses the kinnct or not, if they turn it off you lose the ability to use voice commands to change apps, snap things, etc.

well thats the original story that a lot of different places were reporting. Then microsoft came out and said they were looking for a way to unlock that 10%.

I thought the Kinect had its own cpu, as to not tax the consoles.

xbox resolves around kinect, Devs can't turn it off.

MS is most likely working on ways to upclock the speeds

I hope the developers get to squeeze every ounce out of the xbox one.
