Whatever it happened, I just can't believe AMD deliberately sabotaged or treated unfairly MS, that's been an important client of its before Sony swirched to it too. And after all, Sony and MS just happened to choose different versions of the same family of APUs as bases for their respective customized chips. If the rumour is true, what could have happened can be a bad choice by MS of the foundries used to produce its chips (AMD doesn't produce its chips anymore and outsources them both to its spin-off GlobalFoundries and to other third parties), or maybe some subtle design error affecting heat production and/or dissipation.

have you read the posts in the thread? what is happening is entierly MS's fault for chosing to go with DDR3 ram instead of DDR5

Yes, but somebody (maybe in another thread) mentioned also overheating problems, and another (surely in this thread) mentioned a rumour about MS being angry with AMD... Yes, I should have specified what I was writing about, as it was a secondary diversion from the thread's main arguments. 
Edit: yes, the part about MS angry with AMD was here http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=5400030, that's in page 3 of this thread http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=161548&page=3
