I think Neo will do very little. Maybe on a few exclusives, but others whise why would developers spend any time on something that will have a small market?

With another shrink or two, I could see something lik this, or maybe a bit more powerful for the next gen consols. But they may to go step upgrades, so who knows.  Like how PC's are right now where you can chose your graphics, details, textures, frame rate etc.

I hope so to. I would want neo to just be the same apu on 14nm wich will drive energy consuption and price down some. Maybe have full mantle and direct x12 suport. something slighty better for slightly cheaper. Then in the 2 years remaining release the full ps5 xbox2. 5 years has to be the limit for how short  generation lasts. I can see them then going with at least 5terraflops next gen. That could be 4k for consoles.

I would hope they go better than 5 Tflops for next get.  Devs wanted 2.5 for this get.  Just doubling it isn't that much of a step at all. I would rather see something at least like last gen 6-10 times more powerful.

It's an effect of dimishing returns.  you really need to double the power to see much of a differnce.  5 Tflops would be better, sure, but not really that noticible over current gen IMO.

It it was that big, they why would anyone game on anything but a PC?
