Ok, so came across this while browsing. Not sure of this was discussed here or posted before. The site gets a lot of shit, but they have been correct in the past when it comes to AMD, especially with the news they broke over their GPU's, HBM tech and more.
So, take this with a grain of salt.

'We recently received some new information from a source close to AMD about the companys future plans and one portion of it naturally includes the next generation consoles. As probably everyone is aware, AMD is the supplier of the hearts of current generation consoles: the APUs. Considering their experience in the APU sector,
it is of little surprise that AMD has plans to provide chips for the next generation of consoles as well – which if they are to be believed will happen by 2018.'
'AMD believes it is a very strong contender to supply the next round of APUs – which considering the history, isnt a bad assumption at all. The company is confident that its
GCN architecture will be able to achieve at least 5x the performance/watt of the current generation, resulting in much more powerful consoles, with approximately the same power draw.'
