Recording our games in 4K at 60 images per second could be a reality with Project Scorpio

The Xbox Scorpio or Project Scorpio which is the name we know so far will be a reality at the end of the year. A development in which Microsoft has all its sights set, at least as regards the world of videogames and which is causing them to receive criticism for the abandonment to which they are subjecting the Xbox One and its users.

The truth is that every week we have news that refer to new rumors about the expected new Microsoft console, which we will be able to see at E3 2017.Still missing, the same as for its release on the market, weight new data continues to emerge of what could be some of its characteristics.

And the last one refers to the leisure aspect in the way that Project Scorpio will allow us to capture our games and then share them. Nothing really revolutionary so far, although what is striking is that it would be able to do it at 4K resolution at 60 images per second for streaming .

Once our game was captured, we would use the Microsoft Beam platform to stream 4K. In this sense, the fact is surprising, because together with the playback of content in native 4K there is also talk of the possibility of recording and sharing it simultaneously

Showing off power

These figures are quite impressive, let's say it all, but aspects remain to be known, such as which will be the graph that Project Scorpio will integrate to deal with all the amount of information that it is capable of generating.A power of 6 TFLOPs is enough, but moving a game in 4K and recording with that resolution... that has led us to think about the use of a Ryzen processor but for now these are assumptions.

The decoding formats also stand out with which you will work when streaming on services such as Netflix: HEVC and VP9 . In this way it is above the PS4, whose strength to move content in native 4K is being questioned.

Another rumor points to an integrated power supply in the console and we love that. Gone are those transformer-shaped bricks of the Xbox 360 and Xbox One. Microsoft seems to have seen the way with the sleek Xbox One S and its built-in power supply unit, saving us space and improving the comfort of using the console.

It will be on June 11 the date chosen to clear up doubts and find out if everything we are learning about Project Scorpio is finally done reality.
