I'm hoping the Neo is closer to 6tf just for the fun of watching MS suddenly make a random Tweet about how 6tf was a 'conservative' estimate and it could be closer to 8tf.

Looking at the power draw of the newer AMD cards (just slightly better than Maxwell on 28nm) there is about zero chance of that. MS is probably also in for a nasty surprise.

But both could claim the consoles are close to, or exceeding 6 TFLOPS while the GPUs very very rarely come close to max clock speeds, for marketing purposes. Just like the R9 Nano is clocked the same as the Fury X with much lower TDP.

The gap between Scorpio and Neo will probably be relatively close (think R9 290 vs. R9 Nano) and mostly defined by TDP.
