Next Generation Hardware Speculation with a Technical Spin [pre E3 2019]

Brad Samms has specifically mentioned ‘Arden’ as an Xbox related code name. He thinks it could be referring to the SoC.

 
The codename in the Resetera post was 'Anubis' not 'Arden': https://www.resetera.com/threads/xbox-game-studios-ot4-we-xbox-now-boise.94058/page-24#post-17149390

Interesting if you go to the link @3dilettante provided (http://pci-ids.ucw.cz/read/PC/1022) both those codenames are right next to each other...seemingly related to the same device.
I’m talking about a different post.

Arden is, as well as Argalus.

Go find them.
 
Sure, but that’s immaterial to the point.

Not totally...I think the codename originating from Brad Sams is good way to corroborate. He is likely leaning on insider info from Microsoft where as some of these random posters are probably speculating on AMD roadmaps. So the intersection of the two "sources" kind of solidifies the info.

I think that was the point @anexanhume was trying to make.
 
In terms of where the codename originated...I said it was important...he said immaterial. So not totally.
@mrcorbo is correct. I was linking the fact that multiple sources said the same thing. Who was first only matters if you find one source significantly more credible than the other, which is a fine argument to have.
 
Hum, my guess specs now have changed:

Base APU: Anubis
GPU flops: irrelevant. Clock:who cares
GPU Codename: ahhh, now for the good info: Horus
CPU: Jaguar, Zen1 or 2, idk whatever.
CPU codename: Akhmed
SHAPE AUDIO BLOCK codename: Isis
Controller codename: Osiris

With all these cool codenames the price might balloon into $599, but if MS is willing to take a hit they may be able to launch at $449

I suppose hostility is one way to react to being given a google search term to investigate.
