NVIDIA reveals Volta next next-gen GPU platform - After Maxwell 1TB/s Memory bandwidth from stacked DRAM

It'd be an actual chip redesign, it's not just slapping RAM on top of the GPU and calling it good ^_^; I think they'll come up with better cooling solutions down the line and maybe do the stacking on the side to reduce overall size but I don't think they'll tie the RAM to the chip directly.

If you look at the schematics, you clearly see the stacked ram is NOT on the volta gpu. I think the first company to actually "stack*  is a future (lower power) Intel cpu. Technologically, they are maybe 16-18 months ahead of TSMC and probably 24-26 months ahead of GF.
