OK. Now just Wait™.
Grayson Thomas
I want to believe.
Chase White
Eh, at the very least it would be reasonable to expect a GCN based card with 56 or 64 CUs to be around 30% faster than Vega 56 and 64 based on an expected ~35% capability for clock increases at similar TDPs using TSMC's 7nm HPC process.
Anything more would require redesigning GCN to eliminate the 4 triangles per clock front end geometry bottleneck.
Mason Edwards
Good, but what about ray traycing, ¿Will AMD put AMD Rays on the rumored new cards?
If they don't, the new graphics will be some steps behind NVIDIA, even if they're more powerfull and better in the price perfomance area.
I thought.
Owen Nelson
Ray tracing is of no practical use in the near term. By the time it's doable well enough to see significant usage in games it will be 2-3 GPU generations from now.
Also, from my (limited) understanding, assuming the front end bottleneck issues of GCN were addressed, GCN's compute abilities should be able to handle the type of limited ray tracing being used by Nvidia fairly well as is.
Luke Moore
Your a dumb nigger. This will be pro work loads only in 2018
Jacob Campbell
Now where is the 7nm mainstream GPUs with GDDR6 memory that can have a competitive price and supply?
Camden Green
2018 is the year of AMD.

NVIDIA BANKRUPT AND BTFO
AMD IS NOW 7NM ACROSS THE BOARD
THIS IS A FIRST IN COMPUTING HISTORY, 7NM GPUS AND CPUS
B A S E D AMD

20TFLOPS for a 64CU VEGA design would mean clocks of 2450mhz or there abouts.
Easton Morgan
>2018
>still using GCN
Pathetic
Chase Clark
>32GB OF HBM
Yeah don't get excited this isn't a consumer card.
Jose Cook
Have you looked at the performance numbers for ray tracing? It's the future but as with anything the first generation is trash. Early adoption rarely works out well.
Brody Ramirez
Isn't this just for AI? When will consumercucks get 7nm cards?
Brody Bailey
>Still slower than 1080ti
Oliver Lopez
This is a professional card. If they made a consumer 7nm Vega with four HBM stacks (not 32GB though, completely unnecessary) that just might get memory bandwidth to a point where the cores aren't starved for bandwidth, but that still leaves the GCN front-end bottleneck trashing geometry performance. I really hope AMD ditches GCN after Navi and builds something new from the ground up.
Parker Perry
up to 32GB of HBM is only an option, doubt they will even offer that considering HBM is still too expensive
Lucas Harris
>I really hope AMD ditches GCN after Navi and builds something new from the ground up.
That's the plan
Robert Watson
AMD rays will rely on Vulkan more than DX12, and considering there's only one dev that actually does more than just wrappers for Vulkan, it may as well not exist
Carson Hill
That's the plan, user. The "next-gen" architecture.
Dylan Wilson
Navi is just a die shrink vega
and vega was just a slightly refined Fury
they still have horrible geometry bottlenecks and will stop them from every beating Nvidia unless something is done.
Nathan Green
already lost faith. AMD won't match NVIDIA's tensor core and raytracing core when most of big industries from gamedevs to animation studios are on board with nvidia.
Ethan Hall
This is not a GPU for consumers.
Jaxon Murphy
Obviously it s not only frequency . They done some improvments. That being said GCN is old crap and they should hurry up and get a new arch out
Jace Adams
I really want to believe even though I prefer nvidia cards. Nvidia is getting really cocky with their pricing and is in serious need of competition.
Charles Myers
WAIT FOR OUR REVIEWERS TEAM
Isaiah Turner
I wouldn't care if AMD's upcoming line was slower. AMD is the only one worth paying. Good news is that it won't be slower. Jewvidia and Zogtel are probably up to their scheming tricks, but it's time for them to face the wrath. AMD with Linux is becoming God Tier.
Brayden Gonzalez
did Vega even get released seems like its release was canceled and they just gave out some preorders to backers retarded enough to buy it before benchmarks hit.
Ryder Watson
>AMD’s 7nm Vega is a Monster – 1.25x Turing’s Compute at Half The Size
it's over.
nvidia is kill.
Jason Miller
That was originally the plan with Navi too.
Isaiah Allen
Tensor cores are all but useless for consumers, and I don't believe even the 2080 Ti will include them. We still have yet to see if raytracing will ever be anything more than a meme, like PhysX.
