Xbox One power supply replacement horror story
xbox-one-power-brick-horror Xbox Console only purchase We recently purchased an Xbox One (console only) from a customer who was in need of quick cash for personal reasons.

Grand Theft Auto 5 (V) will not run at 1080p natively on consoles
Official Grand Theft Auto V website hints at 720p max resolution Having done some sneaking around on the official Grand Theft Auto V website - we have found some indications that GTA V will be running at 720p resolution natively and not 1080p. Of course this probably won't be a shock to most of us even at this late stage of the current generation as GTA V is looking to push its boundaries in terms of size and expectations and heck if GTA IV couldn't run at 1080P natively it was always going...

Microsoft recently announced that since the initial E3 reveal of the Xbox One, the console has since then been tweaked to include a 53mhz increase to the GPU speed along with a new graphics driver. The GPU originally ran at 800mhz which means that on launch day Xbox One will contain a 853mhz GPU. Rumors also seem to be suggesting the fact that the Xbox One will also have its RAM increased to 12GB, however I personally feel this is untrue as this rumor originated from the fact that an Xbox One...
