You don't need the rumors.
Using Hynix's GDDR6 on a 384-bit memory bus yields 768GB/s of bandwidth.
That is 14Gbps memory, 16Gbps should already be rolling out which would (if everything else was kept equal) provide 875GB/s of bandwidth, 20Gbps memory would take that up a notch again.
Whether GDDR6 ends up being faster than HBM2 is entirely down to how it is implemented.
You can have GDDR5 Ram faster than HBM2 if you take it wide enough.
