They’re going with the X1+ chip which is supposed to be 25% faster. I would have hoped for a bigger performance bump after 4 years, and they’re not increasing the RAM either.

There’s going to be a “stick” version too. I’d be ok with it getting the more modest spec bump but the pro model should’ve got at least the X2 and 6GB of RAM to really make sure it can run stuff like Dolphin.
