wouldn't low yield just mean low shipment numbers at launch until it is figured out?

probably, but if you want high shipment numbers at launch and a downgrade of the clockspeed can fix the problems of the faulty chips, you could also go down that route.

problem is, if you do that you can't fix it later.

i was going to rebuttle with that but you beat me too it.  downclocking now would really fuck up all the games currently in developement and limit future potential (without cloud assist which if I were MS I wouldn't rely on after the always online fallout).

 

also, it's just a little air-born..
