Information from the huge leak in the iOS 11 Golden Master build continues to trickle in, and developer Steve Troughton-Smith has just revealed detailed specs about the upcoming Apple TV, via AppleInsider.

According to Troughton-Smith, Apple’s new set-top box will be called the Apple TV 4K, and it will offer a three-core A10X Fusion processor (similar to the one currently found on Apple’s 2017 iPad Pro models), and 3GB of RAM. It’s a pretty big jump from the existing fourth-generation Apple TV, which has an A8 processor and 2GB of RAM. Presumably, the Apple TV 4K will need the extra power to smoothly play dramatically larger 4K video files.
