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.

That's what I believe is realistic, but you can look at past gpu releases. For example Fury x was amds top GPU on 28 nm, that card is 8,6 TF. In 2016 with a new node jump(14 nm) midrange gpus can't match it. Ps4 pro GPU can't match it. Now Vega is Amds top gpu on 14 nm and it has about 13 TF.

 

Going from 14 nm to 7 nm expect about twice the gpu cores and a bit higher clock speed, the same jump we saw from ps4 to ps4 pro. And that is 2-2.5x performance increase. Unless AMD can do big architecture improvement (Performance/Watt) expect about 8-9 TF.
