Hrm, I can't help but think that despite this being only slightly more than Sony's PS4 Pro spec-wise, that difference is going to matter a lot because it seems to be the difference between being able to output (upscaled) 4k and being able to render 4k. We'll see if that turns out to be true when the Scorpio Xbox One actually launches (this kind of pre-release article is very prone to botching facts like this). If it does hold then this machine actually has some hope of switching the preferred platform for console games back over to Xbox One.

Does it really make much of a difference?

Even for large screen TV's, you would need to sit about 3-5 feet from a 4K TV to make out every pixel.

3k rendered, then upscaled to 4K should be pretty much indistinguishable to 99% of viewers.
