Could be a custom order scaled up Polaris 11.

Polaris 11 churns out 2.5 TFLOPS at under 50 watts with 16 CUs.

Bump that up to 40 CUs ... 6.25 TFLOPS at about 120-130 watts.

Or just a vanilla Polaris 10 is already 5.5 TFLOPS at sub-150 watts for $299.99. 

To help put things in perspective for you. When the PS4/XB1 launched, their APUs (CPU+GPU) costs under $100usd. 

Thats how the console business works. NO ONE is going to put a $250/$300/$350 GPU alone in a console. 

A Polaris 10 is not an expensive GPU. It's $300 at retail *this year*, that means manufacturing cost is probably closer to $200, give it another 16 months of price reduction ... and you're probably talking about $150/part price for MS. 

Seems reasonable enough to me for a $399.99 console. GPU isn't going to be the issue here. 

AMD can give MS a Polaris part, the Polaris 10 is 32CUs at 5.5 TFLOP, bump that slightly up to 36 CUs to match the Neo, and you get (tada) just over 6 TFLOPS. That likely is exactly what MS is aiming for. It actually lines up fairly well.
