According to a few articles I read, a portion of the GPU is placed in a reserve for Kinect use. Now that Microsoft is selling the XB1 without the Kinect as an option they removed the reserve giving the devs a little more wiggle room.

I am not sure if that reserve is removed once the Kinect is unplugged or if the update removed the reserve. My previous post was poorly worded.
