Til trods for lanceringen af PlayStation 4 Pro, og den kommende udgivelse af Xbox One, så er det umuligt at ignorere at denne konsolcyklus snart går ind i sit femte år. Til trods for dette mener én chef at der vil være sund efterspørgsel på de opdaterede versioner af begge maskiner i løbet af den travle juleperiode, som betyder at markedet endnu ikke er tæt på at stagnere.
For nylig afholdte AMD et investormøde, og her fortalte chefen Dr. Lisa T. Su, at firmaet forventer sund efterspørgsel, selvom den generelle tendens selvfølgelig viser en nedadgående kurve.
"Our semi-custom business continues to perform as expected for the year and we anticipate seasonal demand to remain healthy as our customers enter the holiday sales cycle with Sony's PlayStation 4 Pro and Microsoft's Xbox One X."
"We believe that semi-custom revenue will be down a little bit on a year-over-year basis, and that's expected. We're in the fifth year of the cycle and you would expect that units to be down, although we have some positive mix because of the new launch of the Microsoft Xbox One X console, which is a higher ASP product for us."
Hvornår tror du at Sony viser deres næste konsol frem?
