It's 2013 and already this is at least the second Xbox 720 rumor that has come out. Two different people have spoken up about the alleged specifications for the next-generation Xbox console. First, a user going only by the handle of "BD" says that he will leak information about the Xbox 720's dedicated OS ram if Microsoft fails to deliver on this at E3 2013.
BD is a former Ubisoft employee that is now working for another third-party development studio. Another user, 战神blog, is another industry insider and has supposedly also leaked some of the current specs on the upcoming console.
As with all things of this nature, all of this is merely rumor until officially announced by Microsoft. In addition, these specs may only be for the current devkits handed out to developers.
These specs leaked by 战神blog were then later "confirmed" by BD. Again, all of this is merely rumor until Microsoft reveals the specs for themselves. Don't forget that Microsoft already has a countdown timer for E3 2013 underway. It is speculated by many that the company will reveal their next-generation console at this event.
