Ryzen is x10 times better than any CPU right now...

It's not. But okay. Unless you are only comparing Ryzen against the console CPU's?

But resolution/textures have nothing to do with cpu power... If the ps5/xb2 uses ryzen based apus, then ipc wise, it will get around 40-50% uplift in performance per core... Assuming devs will make their games around the increase, the scorpio won't have enough horse power in the cpu department to run many of those games...

I would expect more. Jaguar is an evolutionary update to Bobcat found in Brazos.
It's only a dual issue CPU architecture. AMD's FX makes a mockery of Jaguar... And Ryzen makes a mockery of FX.

Plus Jaguar can't scale in clocks very well due to various architectural choices and using transistors optimised for power consumption rather than clockrate.

I would expect the next generation consoles to use Ryzens successor anyway, Zen+. And by hacking away at that massive L2 and L3 cache, it should be small and cheap enough for next gen as Ryzens CPU cores are actually pretty small. Not Jaguar/Puma/Puma+ small, but on a newer process it should be good enough.

Yea it would probably be more than 50% in uplift since AMD's press was referring to more newer cpus but I doubt it will be too high cause it's pretty obvious that Sony/MS wants to focus on GPU to make it look pretty than CPU. It might have zen+ but performance wise, I think they will continue to be on the low end of the spectrum.
