Microsoft revealed the Xbox One X at its E3 press conference in Los Angeles, known up until today by its code name Project Scorpio.

The Xbox One X launches Nov. 7 for $499.

The 4K-ready console is apparently the most powerful console ever made. But despite its powerful hardware, it's also the smallest Xbox console to date.

Now that we know what this thing looks like (like a box you might call X), we're still waiting to hear on a price point and release window. In the meantime, we can ponder over the specs behind this powerful beast, that we've known since two months ago.

The new Xbox supports 4K gaming and VR, boasting a six-teraflop graphics processor and eight-core processor. The Xbox team has more than several times mentioned that it's now the current most powerful console on the market.

Take a look:

What all these numbers basically mean for the new Xbox: a consistent frame-rate, faster load times, no screen tearing, improved texture filtering that makes everything look that much smoother, and, of course, 4K support.
