Why your head is full with thougts of Playstation everyday ? |
Possibly because the majority of threads are focused on the Playstation 4 currently due to the current news cycle focusing on the Playstation 4 Slim and Playstation 4 Pro?
Not that it matters, but if you don't like it, feel free to ignore my posts, this is a forum where people get to freely express ideas.
| Kagerow said: Polaris is apparently last architecture to support GCN compatibility mode that supports PS4's original chipset, with HSA console design, linked CPU, and very high chance of picking HBM lines for GDDRs in next gen... While I doubt making it backward compatible is that difficult, it isn't out of possibility that Sony tries to get away with selling game twice by not even trying to implement backward compatibility and blame AMD for it. If Microsoft and Nintendo both spectacularly fails instead of making returns, they will probably take that route. |
Polaris isn't the last Graphics Core Next derived compatible GPU.
We have Vega which is built from the same technology and Navi which will be another derivative of that.
HSA isn't a console-specific feature, it exists on PC as well, HSA has even evolved to the point where multiple RAM pools are supported.
HBM lines for GDDR5? That doesn't make sense, not sure exactly what you are attempting to convey with that snippet.
