Xbox 720 rumored to be GPU/CPU powerhouse; always-on Internet required

As a continuation of the conversation about PS4[1], the previously rumored Xbox 720 specs that were conservative (AMD 6000-series equivalent GPU with dual or quad-core integrated design) may be invalidated by the latest leak, more specifically:

  1. Dual, independent AMD GPU design 
  (can render two scenes independently -- not Crossfire 
  which splits 1 scene across multiple cards)

  2. GPUs will be based on AMD's latest high-end 7000-series
  tech.

  3. 4 or 6 CPU cores; 1 dedicated to Kinect.

  4. I assume: integrated Kinect device.

  5. Always-on internet connection for anti-piracy/DRM.

  6. Blu-ray drive

There were rumors a few months ago that MS was considering a no-disk device, but as other people have argued, we aren't there yet.
