Wouldn't any infinite number be exactly the same size as every other infinite number? It's like saying a ton of lead is heavier than a ton of feathers.Nothing is an infinite as nothing.

Well that's nice. I don't see any ads because I use Enhancer for Youtube in my browsers.Hey didn't do it for the clicks but for the watch time statistics and multiple ads breaks, probably.
Me on the other hand only make short videos and only have ads on the beginning of a video, very little money for me.
Unless you are a woman, tell me when your attitude will let you experience a human growing inside you.Not with that attitude you won't.

How would you mitigate yield issues if TSMC is using up all other 7nm waffers with other clients?There are a variety of methods to mitigate yield issues on silicon. Even if the SoC itself is the limiting factor for construction of the console (which it likely isn't).
Yield issues for Sony would only reflect in an increase of price at the most. Not a limit of supplies.
If SoCs are the bottleneck, you can print way more chips. It is unlikely yields are so poor that the chip costs are doubled. Perhaps a little higher priced per wafer than they wanted, but not enough to really put a constraint on how many SoCs can be produced overall. Low yield can also mean a lot of different things to different people. Low yield for a consumer device is still going to be significantly higher yield than a 6800 or a 3080 for instance, you're still going to come out with way more chips per wafer.How would you mitigate yield issues if TSMC is using up all other 7nm waffers with other clients?
Especially at the scale required for these consoles.
To be precise, though (since this already has the potential to turn into a rabbit hole): I don't think SeriesX's yields are terrible. I think the rumors spread by the TSMC leaker (regarding low amounts of PS5 SoCs being produced) and by Business Insider are wrong.
SeriesX SoC having terrible yields was just the low-probability option I gave, in my previous post.
If SoCs are the bottleneck, you can print way more chips.
So you're suggesting Microsoft could be producing more SeriesX SoCs than Sony is producing PS5 SoCs, while producing about half the number of consoles of the later?The ability to deliver as many consoles as possible is going to rely on more than the SoCs, assembly of all of those parts coming together is going to require a lot as well. Sony needed to fulfill a massive demand 2:1 over xbox, and so they can procure the factory lines to support something that large. I don't think Xbox has that much draw, they would have had to been more conservative on how many they can produce. Everything needs to be JIT or you run into warehousing issues.
This doesn't address my initial question. How are you going to print "way more chips" if all the 7nm waffers are allocated at TSMC?
We're talking about sales that already happened within the past 2 to 3 weeks. Assuming they all sold all their consoles so far (though certainly not in Iberian Peninsula because we have plenty of SeriesXs on the shelves everywhere), this means Sony had to have 2x more PS5 consoles to sell than Microsoft had of SeriesX. All while according to the TSMC leaker Sony started to produce their SoCs very late and at a lower volume than the SeriesX's.
I.e. the sales information we're getting does not match those reports.

This doesn't make much sense on a logistics PoV.
Ah Hilbert and his hotel. He has no room 0 though. And he'd never be invited to a dinner party
hmm, I only recall yield reports. I don't ever recall Sony building retail consoles late, or Sony producing less volume than Series X. Those are new claims to me, I only recall yield being worse. That or I'm having bad memory. For what it's worth, my MFR date is Sept 4-2020 for my Series X and I was first wave for pre-orders. I'm not sure if US gets their batches, but I got mine day 1. I can't find my MFR date on my PS5. It's not printed on mine (text by the vertical stand screw). But I'm reading MFR dates as early as June. XSX from what I can see are reporting the earliest around late July.This doesn't address my initial question. How are you going to print "way more chips" if all the 7nm waffers are allocated at TSMC?

Get Demon's SoulsI got my PS5 today, cancelled the series X because of its preliminary performance.
I only played Astro and Defending Jacob (Apple TV+).
I love the system but it is not that special yet. The controller is great trust me, but the graphics of PS4 were already very good looking at TLOU2 and Death Stranding or God of War. I believe PS5 will produce graphical benchmarks for the entire generation (Like PS4 did), but I don’t think in a few months.
anyway I cannot hear the system unless I put my ear next to it
I will at some point!Get Demon's Souls

You were playing video games!! You didnt produce anything!Got two platinums today. Ghost of Tsushima - which runs like a dream on ps5 - and Astro. What a productive day!
You can be productive as long as you accomplish something, which he did. Twice!You were playing video games!! You didnt produce anything!
You've achieved nothing. You've only trophied.You can be productive as long as you accomplish something, which he did. Twice!
He produced joy, which is 2020 is one hell of an achievement!You were playing video games!! You didnt produce anything!
He trophied Platinum! It's a huge achievement over a normal trophy.You've achieved nothing. You've only trophied.
