- Project Scorpio will sport an internal PSU (245W) and a compact design, owing to advanced cooling techniques pioneered by Microsoft’s leading industrial design team.
- Project Scorpio will achieve SIX TERAFLOPS of GPU power using a customized design, with 1,172 GHz, 40 compute units, while leveraging features from AMD’s Polaris architecture.
- As expected, Scorpio will retain the Xbox One S’s 4K UHD Blu-ray drive.
- DF tested a version with a 1TB HDD, but it’s not yet known if it will come in other configurations.
- Scorpio will have both HDMI-in and out, 3x USB 3.0, a SPDIF digital audio port, an IR receiver/blaster, and will support Kinect with a USB adapter.

How is it all put together?
“We suspect you will be pleasantly surprised.”
While we still aren’t privy to what the actual box will look like, we’re getting a detailed make up of what’s being put inside, how the engineering magic is being conjured up and port layouts that harken back to the Xbox One S.
Now that the faucet has been tapped, we’re bound to get a few more leaks regarding the game developers lined for the console as well as benchmarks from some lucky test outlets leading up to E3. Until then, we can only hope that Microsoft speaks about Project Scorpio again at its developers conference and how the console ties into Windows 10.
