I don't get MS's plan, announcing this early, Scrap NEO? PS5 in 2018?

I think Sony may up their machine to 5TF but they won't hit 6TF. The result will be a cheaper machine but less powerful. 

No, that NEO thing is in production now if the rumoured late October date is correct. No way to change the machine now.

I just peeked into the MS presentation around the scorpio bit (and apart form the usual pr bulshit talk) it shows a 384bit gddr5 bus so 12GB of memory around 336GB/s like the GTX980ti interface. Then again, I only noticed 5 power fets in that cgi animation, and good luck running a 6TF apu on 5 fets....

Of Neo rumours are true, don't they also have 12GB RAM? And how likely is it that they can upclock their processor to get more processing power?
