My $1000 home built machine from 10 years ago can run circles around the XBox One so I respectfully disagree.
That's with an AMD FX-8150 and 16 GB or Ram and a standard Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti running on an 8 year old Samsung solidstate.
Tflops is floating point math genius, and the FX-8150 gets around 8 of 'em so it's handling a huge chunk of it and offloading a lot of the finer details to the graphics card. Not even mentioning the added instruction sets. The Ryzen is handling both cause all the graphics is being run through the processor instead of through a card. So it's doing double duty. And yeah, ram makes up for a lot. There's also separate ram on the card so in addition the the 16 gigs of ram on board the mobo, there's 4 more gigs on the graphics board. Not to mention the vram running off the solid state. So I will happily put my 10+ year old machine right up against any and all the consoles and it will kick every one of their asses.
I said I respectfully disagree but you wanted to take it to the floor.
Edit: here's a spec sheet including the tflops on the Xbox one, one s, and one x.
Edit2edit: wrong GPU. Still, 2.1 beats the shit out of Xbox 1 and 1S at 2.1, and that's without the processor doing all the heavy lifting.
