Did a quick search but couldn't find a thread on this. I'n not overly knowledgeable about the technical details of graphics cards but thought it may be fun to ask the question of those that know more. Apparently Vega is due in October I was wondering if it's possible to estimate the probable performance of the card given what we know of Polaris.
This has been doing the rounds suggesting the specs of the cards:
And this has been posted as suggesting the performance of Polaris:
Given the performance delta of last gen's FuryX vs the older 290X:
Is it possible to make a relatively safe assumption that performance is likely to have a similar delta for the high end Vega part due later in the year.
Presumably AMD will want this part to hit 1080 levels of performance at least, and on the surface of things it appears they will need quite a significant improvement in clock speeds & architecture to get them there.
