Sony and Microsoft aren't using bad GPUs, xbox one had a badly performing card. Ps4 was using cut-down radeon 7870, mid range gpu. Ps4 pro same, radeon 480 gpu. Those Gpus aren't bad, they are decent. Xbox one x gpu is probably superior than radeon 580 because of the bandwidth from the memory.

You also make a bit confusing comments in this thread :) First you say Sony and microsoft uses bad GPU than you say ps5 will have 14 TF which is unrealistic unless they w8 for 5 nm(Don't think they will w8 that long).

I said 12-15.

Why would you need to w8 wait for 5nm? Vega can already do easily over 10 and Navi will improve on that. The gen after Navi can make this happen. Dunno if it's able to do it on an APU but it pretty much has to. I don't really want to think about a sub 12TFLOPS PS5.

Power consumption, though. Even the Xbox One X doesn't seem to consume more than ~160W and that's on a vapour chamber cooler and a $499 console. Even the original PS3 / X360 didn't consume more than some 120W on their GPUs, and costs for cooling and power supply tend to increase very quickly.

It will more likely be on 7nm which should be around 80-100 GFLOPS/W, so probably a 8-12 TFLOPS GPU. It's a long lived node which is going to be used for a while like 28 nm, so it will be very cost-effective and able to scale to volume production. RAM possibly won't go above 16 - 24 GB, since it's unlikely there will be anything better than 16 Gb GDDR6 chips by then, and placing twelve of them as MS did on the XBX is already very expensive.
