It uses the A8 chip and 2GB running memory, by using this hardware specification upgrade that powered new generation iPad Pro A10X Fusion chip will greatly increase the Apple TV computing and graphics performance.
Apple could have been more conservative, because the previous chip has already able to deal with 4K content required HEVC decoding. But it seems that Apple's plans for the next few years in this product for some "future-oriented" test. Steven T-S pointed out that A10X chip may be used to play iPhone 8 and iPhone X's 4K 60fps video content.
Adding such a powerful chip to Apple TV may also mean that Apple will once again try to make Apple TV a better game console, it has the ability to deal with rich graphics 3D games, may be even can beating with the Nintendo Switch Product in competition.
Aside from upgrading 4K Apple TV with A10 X and 3GB of RAM, Apple is also expected to revamped the fifth-generation set-top box with a redesigned Siri Remote that features haptic feedback. As developer Guilherme Rambo dug into leaked golden master software that was released over the weekend and found "actuator calibration" and "force calibration" references, suggesting haptic feedback for the remote.

Well, haptic feedback is designed to provide tactile feedback when interacting with a device, letting users know a press or tap has been registered by the user interface. Apple embraced haptic feedback as a main UI element in the iPhone with the introduction of the Taptic Engine in 2015, but haptic feedback has been used in Macs and iOS devices for years.
