It's most certainly possible. Global Foundries and AMD would have learned a bit from Polaris (14nm is still new, power characteristics are still up in the air for the most part.) one would expect those lessons would translate towards improving AMD's Semi-Custom chips and Vega/Zen. |
Perma you seem to be not understanding or trying not to. We are talking at Scorpio and Neo using the basic same architeture, and you even want what they learn producing Neo to make Scorpio cheaper (and in some bizarre way even cheaper than Neo). So I'm not talking about making the chip smaller with a node reduction. We are talking about both systems using same architeture on similar node process and you wanting one to be smaller, cheaper, more powerfull, etc. You still haven't explained that.
Because we certainly know the node reduction have made PS3 and X360 cheaper.
