Pemalite said: I have provided evidence for many of my claims and counter claims though. In non-DRAM limited scenarios. (I.E. 4GB and less) Fiji beats Polaris hands down. The point was about comparing Maxwell to Polaris. And the point I made is that Maxwell, despite being built at 28nm is just as efficient/more so than Polaris at 14nm. 4672 SP (73 CU's) isn't happening. That is an insanely large chip for something that is a mid-range part... And that would be a die-harvested part even still, meaning it's going to be an even larger chip than the CU counts would otherwise imply. Navis focus is identical to that of Polaris. Acceptable performance per watt at an affordable price point. |
The same as I am , i also provided a logic how it's possible.
But the scenarios is different on polaris and Fiji, and modern gaming with directX 12 (or even directX 11) and use advance Vulkan and Opengl and Cl say the other way around . So Polaris toe to toe with Fiji at least it super close.
It's possible that's why Sony wait for another year (2020) release date , yes cost will be major problem with that , but for a console that will last for 6 to 7 or even 8 years it's not that difficult. Also Adored TV have made some calculation on Chip silicon size/price possibility with the size of 250 mm2 PS4 Pro polaris and the possibilities of using the same size chip on PS5 , his calculation is on the spot

Don't bring vega 64 or or even vega VII , Navi even tho it's still has the same GCN it might have modification due to the small die. Hell Many people doubt Sony able to pull 4,2 on PS4 pro even you are doubt Microsoft able to pull 6 teraflop on 500 USD price console.
Vega 56 is not a beast compared to high end GPu, but compared to Polaris or even Hawai is big , and on top of that the benchmark shows it's an igpu (an igpu as powerful as vega 56) is amazing.
