After the Scorpio announcement I think it is using Zen without a doubt. Original rumors pointed to Sony having two CPU's, one would be a slightly modified Jaguar, the other would be a next gen Zen. If they went the Jaguar route they could keep the console arond $399.99, but the system would have thermal limits that could not see it reach 5TFLOPS. On the other hand the Zen would result in a $499.99 price tag, but allow them to hit the full 5.5TFLOPS of the RX480.

At this point it only makes since for Sony to choose the second CPU, and assure they have enough power for 4K/30FPS on all games to match the Scorpio. We know that the 4.2TF set up is right on the edge due to the DF article, so a 5.5TF set up could do it noproblem.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
