Xbox Series S Reportedly Has a 4 Teraflop GPU

Ever since theXbox Series Xwas first announced, there has been a smattering ofreportsabout a ‘cheaper’ Series S console as well. Those reports were later confirmed via aleaked Xbox Series X controller packaging. In fact, we are expecting Microsoft to formally announce the existence of theSeries S sometime this month itself.

That said, so far all we know about the Series S is that it will be more affordable, and a disc-less console. You know, similar to thePlayStation 5Digital Edition. However, a new report from TweakTown sheds light on the specifications of the console.

According to the report, the Xbox Series S will have a 4 teraflop GPU. That’s almost a third of theSeries X’s 12.15TFLOP GPU. Clearly, the Series S will be nowhere near as powerful as the Series X, or the PS 5 for that matter which has a 10TFLOPs GPU.

The Xbox Series S is obviously aimed at budget conscious gamers who may not want to spend the extra cash on a Series X. Moreover, Microsoft is probably hoping to cannibalise some PS 5 sales as well.

Since the Series S is not official yet, we don’t have anything in the way of official information about the specifications. As mentioned earlier, Microsoft is expected to announce the Series S this month itself, so we shouldn’t have to wait too much to learn more about it. The actual launch for the Xbox Series X, by the way, isset for November. Microsoft hasn’t set an exact date, but a recentFortnite bundle offeringsuggests it could be 17th November. We are also expecting a similar launch timeline for the PlayStation 5.
