This could, at a stretch, give the chance for PS4 and Xbox One to have a second die shrinkage around 2018 and beyond, after the 20nm shrink I expect next year.

 

AMD is skipping 20nm: „The company started several product designs in 20nm that will instead transition to the leading-edge FinFET node.“

Damn I need to read AnandTech more, but that's probably better news for the console refresh as the finfet (16nm I think?) will give a greater leap than 20nm.
