I guess I just didn't expect them to look like Titans or Quadros. Even dual GPUs used to be smaller...
Either way, 4 GB seems to have been confirmed now - http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2015/05/amd-confirms-4gb-limit-for-first-hbm-graphics-card/ - I'm not sure that's too nice since the top cards are supposedly $849.
Oh, AMD. Why do you do that to me? .-.
