Jos 2015 su iz TSMC-a rekli da su osigurali narudzbu iz AMD-a. Tad su svi mislili da je to za Zen ili Polaris ali je ispalo da proizvode APU-e za konzole.
Xbox One S isto ima 16nm APU, ovo je potvrđeno iz MS-a.
Već imaju dosta iskustva s 16/14nm FinFet procesom (PS4 Slim, PS4 Pro, Polaris, Xbox One S), tako da su se do dolaska Zen-a već fino uhodali.

Digital Foundry: Slimmer, smaller consoles are often made possible with process shrinks. Xbox One runs with a 28nm processor - does Xbox One S stick with that, or are you using a FinFET process? If you're on a smaller process, can you give us an idea of how much smaller the die is now?
Albert Penello: Correct! The SoC in the Xbox One S is designed in the 16nm Fin FET process, which results in a die that is 240mm2; 33 per cent smaller and consumes less power than the 28nm SoC in the original Xbox One.
Digital Foundry: If you are at 16nmFinFET for the new SoC, does that confirm you're using TSMC [Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company - currently producing Nvidia's new Pascal chips] to fabricate the processor as per Xbox One?
Albert Penello: Yes, for the Xbox One S consoles shipping this year the SoC is fabricated at TSMC.
