Beacsue a new chip size is announced or even demoed doesn't in any way mean that everyone will be using chips built to that size a year or two later. Things just don't work that way. |
not really
22nm were first researched complete in 2008,and they came into use 4 years later atleast mass market in 2011
back then there was no iPhone or Android boom and the electronics consumer market was still small small
that is totally unlike today
also difference between 28nm and 22nm isn't that big and even back then 28nm was a pretty big step up
So if 7nm are research completed in 2015 so by 2018 they shud be in mass market
this time around the market is totally different market with Apple,Microsoft,Samsung,Android,Google,Sony,etc being all in for it
i never said PS4-XBONE will surely use 7nm in 2019 but was saying it cud happen or not
as they have to reduce costs but at the same time at the end of the generation,they stop investing much into research
