Sony won't have a PS5 in 2018.

1) AMD doesn't cycle so quickly.
2) The process and technology has to be there, let alone cost effective.


If Scorpio is holding out until tail end of 2017 because the process is not there until so, there surely wont be anything more powerful Sony could be designing the PS5 with today (or in the coming year) to release a year later.

These things are planned ahead of time in concert with the chip maker's capabilities/embedded GPU cycles. Scorpio is likely packing to the brim what can fit in a chip that they can sell at their target console launch pricepoint.

People having a field day claiming Scorpio is is going to so out of reach in cost surely are saying the PS5 will be $800-1000...no? Let's be realistic.

of course it won't, what i was trying to get through was that this battling for promises is way to soon for a console that is one year away against a console that is days away, that could be turned against the, now hunter, from the, now prey, next year. it would not sit well for consumers and its too soon but lets say that instead of December of 2017 they do a announcement in q2 2018 to launch mid 2019, that way the almost same effect is achieved and its a more reasonable time table.

all i'm saying is, see before believing...
