Xbox 720: More Specs Leaked

It has been a little while since we've heard any rumors about the upcoming Xbox 720.  That is until now as a new leak has hit the scene.This weekend on an Xbox developer forum you could have picked yourself up the Xbox 720 'Durango' dev kit if you had a spare $10,000 laying around.  Looking a lot like a regular PC tower it was rumored to have NVIDIA graphics as well as an Intel processor.  Also rumored was that the kit would have over 8GB of memory.

Ok so this all sounds like the rumors we've been hearing all along but Digital Foundry contacted the source of the leak as well as several other developers who confirmed that what was leaked is indeed 'genuine'.

The person who apparently leaked the Xbox 720 specs (and who was selling it for a mere $10,000) is known as DaE.  DaE stated that there will be:

• eight-core  CPU
• over 8 GM of memory
• NVIDIA Graphics
• Blu-Ray Support
• 1080p and native 3D output

DaE also claims that the Xbox 720 will be at least 6 times more powerful than the Xbox 360.

Sounds pretty good if all of this is true.  What do you think?  Is this the real deal as confirmed by these people or is this just more rumor and speculation.  I guess we'll just have to wait and see.  We'll keep you updated if any new info comes out about the Xbox 720.
