Xbox One S & Xbox One X
The final two suggestions are one of the best gaming consoles on the market now. The Xbox One S is on sale and currently goes for $230 and comes in a bundle with Xbox One S 500GB Console, full game download of Battlefield 1, one month of EA Access, Xbox Wireless Controller, HDMI cable (4K Capable), Power cable and a 14-day Xbox Live Gold Trial, without the price being changed for all these features. On this console, you can watch 4K Blu-ray movies and stream 4K content on Netflix and Amazon Video, or play over 100 console exclusives and a growing library of Xbox 360 games on Xbox One.
However, if you are willing to spend three hundred dollars more for the latest Xbox console, the Xbox One X, you can go ahead and grab it now for $530. It may cost more but it’s way better than any other console out there. If you take a look at the original Xbox One you will see that the new “Project Scorpio” has numbers, that are out of the roof. For instance, the 2013 Xbox one had only 12 Radeon Graphics cores (which is not bad at all) clocked at 853MHz, while Xbox One X has 40 Radeon cores clocked at 1.172MHz. That means that it basically has 6 teraflops of power, which compared to it’s biggest rival Play Station 4 is with 1.8 teraflops more.The Xbox One X also has booster it’s RAM from 8GB of DDR3 up to 12GB of GDDR5, for a memory bandwidth of 32GB comparable to Nvidia GeForce GTX 1080. That beast could run games at 4K resolution and 60 frames per second, which means that the graphic details and the gaming performance will be outstanding!
