3 CPUs for Xbox 360?? by YottabyteWizard on 06-12-2005 at 11:27 PM

I don't know if im getting this wrong, but it's true that XboX 360 will have 3 CPUs of 3.4Ghz each!? It's practically impossible that... it's too cheap to have 3!!! :'(

3 CORES, not CPUs.


Here's an example of a multi cored processor:
AMD Athlon 64 X2

3 PowerPC processors

so the "core" is like HT??.. first time i've heard the word 'core' being used and figured it was just a trap to make ppl think there were 3 cpu's...

That's assuming that the XBox 360 is sold at pound sterling an exact conversion to the US dollar, which rarely (if ever) happens. Reports have said it could cost as much as  £399.99 (with delivery)!

I assumed nothing. I only converted the price which purity told us (which was msg_plus_freak's question). But of course each country and each store in that country will have its own price (in a set range). Also delivery costs for something like that are always very high and can go well above US $100... If you have the money, why not, but save some (much) money and buy it in a local store though...
