Oh, there's Vega rumours already?!

If it's 60% above Fury X I would accept that, although before the 14nm tech launched I was dreaming of a new AMD GPU being 2.0x Fury X.

60% above the Fury X is exactly twice the performance of a RX 480. Do you really think they can do that in 2016, considering the RX 480 already draws a hefty 160W? That would need serious architectual improvements.

I don't really expect Vega this year. It should be around the same time as the new Titan early next year.

That would be a disaster for AMD. Even early 2017 would mean 9 months behind Nvidia, having absolutely nothing to offer at the high-end. How long was it when AMD was so far behind last time?

No it's gotta come out 2016. I know there are many people holding off from buying a 1080 or 1070 because they're waiting for more information about Vega. But I don't think high-end gamers can wait that long, another 8-9 months. Even I will have a tough time to wait that long, and I refuse to buy anything from Nvidia.

Damn!! Want nu computer now!!!
