Can Xbox Series S Beat "Series X" on Modern Warfare 2?  

This is impressive BUT If devs use SFS and mesh shaders (if the engine supports it), Next-G has not had a chance to breathe once, PS5 and XBOX SERIES X can only do 1900p30fpsRT at best in open world while SS gets dynamic 1080p30fps open world and maybe RT if it's a "well optimized" game. I'm glad to see that devs are putting down last-G and focusing on next-G for less of a optimization bourdon. people say xbox series s is not at it's advertised standards but yet the same thing is happening with the "4k" PS5 and XBOX SERIES X. There seems to be confusion regarding the actual teraflops of next gen consoles. The problem is comparing PS4/Xbox one architecture-GCN with PS5/Xbox series X/S architecture- RDNA 2. RDNA 2 offers Variable rate shading/Ray tracing and GCN does not. To give people an idea how powerful next gen consoles are, this mention converts RDNA 2 Teraflops to GCN Teraflops. As you can see, PS5 is 17.22 Teraflops and Xbox Series X is 20.35 Teraflops in GCN Architecture. Of course this is probably not a 100% precise representation, but this is merely a gauge on how powerful next gen consoles are. Ok, make it simple PS5 is 10.28 teraflops RDNA 2= 17.22 teraflops GCN Xbox series X is 12.1 teraflops RDNA 2= 20.35 teraflops GCN Estimate: Xbox series S is 4 teraflops RDNA2 = 8 to12 teraflops GCN Xbox one x is 6 teraflops GCN=1.5 to 2 teraflops RDNA 2 PS4 pro is 4.2 teraflops GCN= 1 teraflop RDNA 2 There isn't a single aspect of One X that's more powerful than Series S. 4TFLOPS RDNA 2 is more powerful and capable than Polaris 6tflops. RDNA 2 is around 50% more efficient than RDNA 1. And RDNA 1 was already 40% more efficient over Polaris. Polaris is the GPU set in Xbox One S and One X. One X would more than likely struggle to run any next Gen games with next Gen features above 900p. In fact most would be 720p or even lower. One X also is using GDDR 5 as opposed to GDDR6. Couple that together with no asset streaming on One X to change ram data on the fly, the Series S didn't need 10gb ram to outperform the One X. As I said, the One X loads data to ram and that's it. It's stuck with it until it uses another load screen. Series S however is constantly able to change its ram data on the fly every second. With far superior ram usage over One X. Xbox One X just isn't able to run next Gen games with modern graphics remotely close to Series S. Because Polaris and Jaguar just aren't remotely up to the task. One X is a 4K last Gen machine. But it's a 720p at best next Gen machine. Btw memory speed would not be an issue if the games were built on rdna2 tech, these consoles are not only more powerful than last gen it's also 5-15x more efficient!! If Xbox series s was launched during the time Xbox one x launched, on GCN Xbox series s would be the most powerful console in the world from 2017-2020. The main reason why games are not looking as next-gen on Xbox series s (and Xbox series x and ps5) Is because developers are optimizing on engines that are built to optimize GCN for consoles. ps4/xbox one All of these, devs are not using for optimization, If series s dies off that just tells you something about ps5 and series X with games only hitting 1900p at a rough 30fps with RT at best. Not the promised 4k60 RT and the possible 8k 30fps with these efficiently features. The series S is needed to test developers optimization skills for next gen and from what I'm seeing, it's not looking good for XSS,XSX and PS5 BTW, mesh shaders can give 500-1800% performance boost in rendering regardless of the graphical conditions. XSS gpu edges out X1X in everything, even resolution, memory size and memory bandwidth. Those roughly 8.5gb(available for games) will get 2x multiplier from BCpack and 2.5x multiplier from SFS(MS claims those are conservative numbers). Let's assume a game uses 3.5gb for cpu tasks and the remaining 5gb is for Vram. 5gb * 2x * 2.5x = that's 25gb effective Vram on XSS at an effective 1.1TB/s bandwidth. Those numbers sound ridiculous because it 's rtx3090 numbers in a $299 console and a total gamechanger. XSS was made for next gen games at lower resolution, X1X was meant for xbox one games at higher resolution, it does nothing new or exciting only brute forcing old tech. On top of that XSS cpu is a monster compared to the weak X1X jaguar cpu which also has to do sound processing and no dedicated compression block. That huge cpu overhead could also do tasks like particle simulation, alembic animation etc. that x1x/ps4 games did on the gpu, freeing more gpu ressources for other stuff, on top of the hardware accelerated features it has compared to X1X. And I hope they're not comparing 6TF of old architecture to 4TF new architecture, that would be foolish. The problem is games still target ps4, xbox one and weak pc hardware. Rtx20 series also seemed weak because a gtx1080ti destroyed 2080 in many games. That's until games got raytracing and 2080 crushed 1080ti. Rtx20 series is still the biggest leap in gpu architecture in recent time. Much bigger than rtx40. Mesh shaders, VRS, SF, DirectStorage are available on rtx20 yet it's not used. Huge untapped potential, just like XSS. Hell blade 2 will be the first game to utilize one of the next gen features and that's SFS and I can't wait to see it in action.

That's the difference between lazy developers looking for excuses and developers making good use of the available power for both consoles. Look how perfectly optimized the game looks on both consoles and the effort with the Series S to achieve the very best resolution and framerates from this capable console. Imo it's lazy developers that's holding this generation back not Series S.

Series S is an amazing machine for nog even half the price of only a low end graphics card.

Nice job, bro! 🔥

Crazy how good optimized it was

Look at all these games running with 60-120 fps and looking amazing and then there is this one idiot who released a poorly optimized game and blames it on the Series S. All sounds like the classic "my dog ate my homework" kind of bullshit and it really pisses me of. So many devs out there are proving that the Series S can deliver amazing results even with highly demanding games so get your shit together and optimize your game or at least admit that you fucked up.

I have a problem: on my xbox series s, in cod mw2 I see reflections and glare with a lot of noise! Especially in the water, what problem can there be and how do I solve it?

When the devs know how to optimize a game: (Hugs to Gotham Knights)

Thnx u so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

How do I use 120fps mode? Thanks for the vid 🥰❤️

If you game in HD and don't plan to switch to 4K anytime soon, the Xbox Series S is the way to go. I was skeptical at first, but I now see how the Xbox S is the smartest choice for gaming in HD. If only they would release a model with 1 TB SSD.

Imagine a gta with those graphics

Between both consoles. Do they give different video upload quality to streams/ youtube videos if I want to do content creation?

Love serie S

Yeah if you don't see a difference in 4K and (anything lower) just look at the very first seen in the video. NICE!! That's why i go for the Series X, and One X. I'll never buy a Serie S, it's just too far behind, and can't move ahead (Graphically) in any way. That's a shame.

Doing really well for a 'potatoe'

Series S is it at 1440p native or 1440p dynamic?

I think it’s better run MW2 at 60fps on series S than 120fps. what do you think about it ? The resolution is better at 60fps

I just wanna say: I love my potato!!!

I believe the series s version is also using a bit of fsr 2.0?

But what’s the multiplayer like in 120 fps??

I'm getting the Xbox Series S soon hopefully it's worth it.

Exactly the same, MW2 is a last gen game, people seem to forget that

series s well optimised

This isn't even half of the power of the new xboxs! Can't wait till it's next gen only and devs go full on

Playing on a tv sat around 7ft back you would not be able to say which is which I am sure

Good !!!👍👍👍👍

Runs better on series x or ps5?

True devs

Oh look a well optimized game running and looking better on PS5/SeriesX whiles running well and looking good on SeriesS. I guess it is possible if you actually try.

This comparison shows how efficient both consoles are but also how good activations new cod engine is. I originally bought a series s because I already had a decent pc with a 2060 super and i7 9700f, which when it comes to performance it performs on par with a series x - however a series x is around 70% more efficient compared to my pc. games like halo infinite looked terrible imo on the series s and looked like I was playing on an Xbox one when I watched a comparison video similar to this. Modern warfare II has shown how a modern game engine and a non lazy development team can properly utilise the current hardware to its best potential.

It's not worth paying more for that little difference yet. X series hasn't shown for what came for, S is on top.

i have a series s i got early for christmas so guessing by the looks at this my series s is garbage then?

So to really show any difference you have to zoom in. Thanks.

xbox ss is small but powerfull

Thanks

No no no but but the Xbox series s is holding the generation back

Xbox Series S Píxels

Not much difference

Your videos do not support 60fps and what is the benefit of watching that is why I always leave your video and go to other channels😢

Series S is making developers mad 😠 hope the rumours are true and they stop supporting it. It's ridiculous calling it a current gen console when it holds everything back... looks like a blurry mess

I'm in love with mine series S 🤍🖤

Me:watching this on Smartphone 👀🥴 👇
