HBM is its likely successor and it will be on the 390X and 380X in 2015.  However it won't completely replace it at all levels like DDR4 will to DDR3.

Very interesting tech, at least from what I got with a quick search. I'll take a better look on it, looks promising!

The first generation (On the 390X) is supposedly going to be 4GB on a 4096-bit bus with 640 GB/s of bandwidth!!!!  That's double the 290X's already high bandwidth, and the next generation of HBM is supposed to be double what came before it!
