Reasoning...

  • 350mm2+ 28nm APU ($100)
  • <325mm2 7nm APU ($110)
     due to being on 4 times smaller fabrication process, from a wafer standpoint alone you should be getting around 4 times more chips from the same-sized wafer. 50 more.

WTF?

A 325mm2 chip is a 325mm^2 chip. No matter what. Roughly same number of chips/waver than a 350mm^2 chip.

The 7nm node currently is considerably more expensive than the 28nm node, hence a 325mm^2 7nm PS5 SoC is considerably more expensive than a 350mm^2 28nm PS4 SoC.
