Microsoft and AMD Could Utilize the Flexible Tile Upgrade Design of “Magnus” APU for the Entire Range of Next-Gen Xbox Devices

I mean sure that makes sense. Im more asking what sort of range of devices really.
 
Yep, I was thinking the same but also if/how they plan to require devs to support multiple teirs. It wasn't exactly a smooth ride for the Series S and this could open up another can of worms similar to that.
 
What I'm also wondering is if AMD will use this technology to finally gain a foothold in the laptop arena. I mean they might be able to convince OEMs like HP or Dell to commit to a similar APU as this. It seems, to me anyway, most laptop launches with AMD CPUs are more of a paper launch since months later if I try to find them they don't exist so a platform like this might make a difference there.

Yea trying to find local resellers (microcenter) stock of AMD APU based laptops is neigh impossible.

They arent, no one is. Amd never will. Seems proper powerful apu will never happen for pc. Not on mini pcs not on laptop, not on desktop. It just not happening, it is hard for me to understand, it has been for years that we shoukd have a proper powerful well developed product line.
Yes yes it " canibalizes dgpus" yeah yeah people say that, i dont know if AMD says it. But to that I say, canibalizes what? The leftover bones of the market amd gets? The pity purchases they get from contrarians and masochists? (Thats sarcasm btw, i know their products are decent, but just that when it comes to dgpus).
 
What is likely to happen is that Microsoft will/has ditched the pro model.

Instead the console will be upgraded every 4 years with the latest gpu equivalent to the 9070xt & cost around $800 maybe 🤔

For Microsoft everything is now an Xbox — including your PlayStation 😉

PlayStation should follow the conventional subsidized model
