Playing Horizon on a standard ps4 and I can see why most people think 8gb is enough.  And it looks much better on a Pro which is crazy to think.  

 

I'd not be willing to shell out hundreds of $ more to make an already beautiful title look or run a bit better.

Except Horizon doesn't have access to 8Gb of Ram, which is where it gets real crazy.

Does that mean AMD will be making a little bit of money off of each Volta, since they made HBM?

Good question. I would assume with JEDEC adopting the standard... AMD should get a some amount of licensing money... Or they might have a cross-deal already in place with JEDEC.
But... AMD doesn't make anything anymore since they spun off Global Foundries, they just design it, so they shouldn't get paid for every card that nVidia sells.

Well, I'm over here sitting with my R9 390X!!! It means I wont be totally insane for upgrading! I'm thinking about Ryzen 7 1800X + GTX 1080Ti. Building my Ryzen 7 PC on Thursday's release!!!! I'll get my GPU in a week, or three.

That would be a sizable upgrade. The RX 390X should still be able to hold it's own in new titles though... But Pascal really is beating things out of the park at the moment and AMD doesn't have anything viable to compete with the Geforce 1080 Ti right now.
