You assume too much. You have no idea what else they  could have revised while they were working on the new GPU.

Point is that its a known fact it was in very short supply and that coincided with the end of the holidays and the change to a revised system.


It could be:

  • old GPU package -> new motherboard
  • new GPU package -> new motherboard
  • new GPU package -> old motherboard
  • old GPU package -> old motherboard

Interchangeable...

Or it could just be that Sony screwed up supply because it can take weeks to get chips back from the foundry, I believe it can take as long as 16 weeks. They misjudged.
