Lol. There seems to be a lot of confused/hopeful people in this thread.

I'm willing to bet $1000 that we don't get a 7nm Intel, AMD or Nvidia processor before 2020.....

Who's down?

I'd say 2019-20 seems very realistic...given how Samsung is already heading for 10nm.

But are they going to start using that 10nm process with their SoC or with their NAND?

SoC. Of course, it remains to be seen if they'll actually launch anything 10nm in 2016, as they've stated, or both this and TSMC announcements are, what some consider, "paper wars".

Honestly, I think we're almost out of the woods after this 28nm wall, so, IMO, mature 7nm around 19/20 for consoles seems realistic.
