Seems exactly like that old leak from some time ago.
And again that weird 880GB/s bandwidth, which I can't really fit into 16, 18 or 20Gbps GDDR6 calculations for 20GB pool.
What does fit is 20GB GDDR5X with 11Gbps modules, but that requires 640-bit bus.(not sure how feasable that is, though 390 and 390X had 512-bit bus).
Or 22GB GDDR6 wiith 20Gbps modules on 352-bit wide bus.

Yeah. If it was "fully Navi based". - Then it won't feature any of AMD's next-gen architecture features. Otherwise it's not fully Navi based. |
Yep; so it's Navi based, not fully :)

12 teraflop on AMD GPU actually quit low , AMD has able to bring 12,5 teraflop and more with Vega 64 back in 2016 . So we can expect more performance number in 2020 no even 2019 we can expected it more result.
All High end GPU from 2016 will just be a mainstream GPU at the end of this year or next year.
Pemalite said: This is false. There are some serious technical limitations we need to consider as well. Vega 7 is 331mm2. Correct. But consoles are also at the mercy of PC commodity prices... That is, when DRAM goes up in price... Then that price also increases for consoles. I would give more credit to Anandtech when it comes to low-level stuff like that. Slightly ahead of the more sensible Anaconda specs. There are 64 Stream processors per Compute Unit. That is a hard limit. Vega 7 is 7nm and didn't double anything except on the memory side of the equation. Or... They simply might go with GDDR5X or GDDR5 which if taken wide enough can be faster than GDDR6 anyway. |
The TDP i mentioned is 330 a typo it's the same number that mentioned on Anand tech (310w)
Ok, but we don't have an exact architecture lay out of Navi, AMD might have something on their sleeve like more Rop's on single CU. It's the same design GCN but it's still "Navi" a next gen mainstream GPU to replacing Polaris. Even PS4 to PS4 Pro can have a graphic boost by 2,5 times more.
what's the point of 7nm if there is no performance gain. You seem pessimist, while historical data pointed different way.
If you " theory " is true, PS5 performance will not have a generational leap, it will be even smaller leap compared to PS3 to PS4 gap, while PS3 to PS4 already considered small.
If you said using Zen2 is big improvement , you said on others thread, it's not. CPU is not affecting rendered pipeline directly, it might rid of bottle neck but it will not affecting the shaders count etc.
You also need to remember what happen with Polaris , it's able to gain more performance compared to previous Pitcairn mainstream GPU and comparable to Hawaii high end GPU or even to Nvidia Maxwell (GTX 970- GTX 980).
I believe we are on the times where 2016 high end GPU will be a mainstream GPU like what happen with polaris. So 14 teraflop is achievable .Hell even 2016 AMD able to bring 12,5 teraflop with vega 64.

Of course it'll be a smaller leap than PS3 -> PS4. Much smaller. That had 3 full node shrinks and a half node, which theoretically meant an 8 times √2 improvement in power consumption, transistor density etc. Now, however, we had 2 full node shrinks, and that's it. 4 times density improvement over the PS4, to put it simple. That would mean a GPU anywhere between 6 and 12 TFLOPS depending on whether you take the Xbox One or the XB1X as a ballpark. But the CPU is going to consume way, way more power this time around, possibly 30W instead of some 5W like the Jaguars in the PS4. So the margin of improvement for the GPU grows thinner.
That doesn't mean anything, though, a modern 8 TFLOP GPU could, say, double the performance of the XB1X for instance since there are many other factors in play such as bandwidth, APIs etc. This whole TFLOP thing is the new version of the "polygons per second" dick wagging contest that used to happen back in the PS2 days, and a lot of people feel outright insecure about the next generation consoles if they aren't like 12-14 TFLOPS like in their dreams.
Besides, zero chance next-generation games are going to be mostly 4K. Most are going to be checkerboard upscaled from 1080p - 1440p specially in 60 FPS games.
Yeah, these specs are not going to happen.
As for your "but Vega 64 was already 12 TFLOPS in 2016!!" thing... did you know we had 3 TFLOP GPUs from AMD like in 2010? Probably consuming less than 375W, by the way, and yet they didn't make their way to consoles? Huh huh.
Edit - AMD released a 5 TFLOP GPU in January 2011 for the same 375W as the Vega 64. Which, again, means little since Terascale was so bad it's likely much worse than the 4 TF GPU in the PS4 Pro.

Not sure where you get the 2016 from. Last I checked Vega 64 was released in August of 2017.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

You said " of course ", how can you be so sure? also the article said indeed between 12 to 14 so it's not of reach either . PS3 to PS4 graphic performance is 8 times , while PS4 to PS5 we still don't know, i am just using a formula based on how much the node shrinks from 28 nm to 7 nm. It will have major improvement on the amount of shaders count at least on per clock speed .

Ok then, it was a mistake, so indeed we have come far away so 14 teraflop is still possible.

I wouldn't hold my breath, everything is possible until we have a concrete data is just pure speculation , but based on the current data i have my own theory, i am not close to any possible result either.
4k on 60 FPS is possible , hell even 1070 can do that
your reason that we have 3 TF performance GPU on 2010 is funny , 3TF on that year is a high end GPU, 14 teraflop in 2019 to 2020 will be a mainstream GPU so it's possible we have that number on navi.
