With the release of AMD's RX Vega nearing, one must ask themselves, how will it perform, and when will it finally come out.
For people who do not know:
RX Vega is AMD's next generation of GPUs set to release in Q2 2017.
RX Vega is set to be the first card for regular consumers that features HBM2.
RX Vega is aiming to compete with Nvidia's high end range of GPUs.
RX Vega has many improvements over AMD's past generation of chips, in respect to the architecture.
The PS4 Pro currently uses Some Vega tech in the custom GPU it posses, where as the Scorpio apparently does not.
RX Vega supports support rapid packed math (two FP16 operations in the same time as a FP32 operation) like the PS4 Pro and Switch, and the last few generations of Nvidia cards.
Personally I think that Vega will release in May of 2017, or early June 2017.
I hope it (realistically):
Is about 15 — 20% faster than the Titan Xp or GTX 1080Ti, FP32 TFLOPs wise (about 13.5 TFLOPs).
Has about 750 — 1000+ GB/s of memory bandwidth (GTX 1080 Ti has ~ 484 GB/s).
Launches at or below 700 — 800 US.
Delivers on the promises of the advanced architecture.
Has a consumer SKU with 8GB or more of RAM.
I am looking forward to reading your responses.
