OK... just decided to lock away my money till this thing comes :D lol. (Look I've been outside in the freezing cold all day constructing a garage, I'm allowed to make 'some' frazzled comments ;) :p )


I do wonder if this will be GCN 1.4 or 2.0 as such.

With VR and 4K becoming more feasible options I really hope Polaris and Pascal bring about huge improvements.

28 nm has gotten old already.

A benchmark slide comparing power consumption of a Polaris gpu with a GTX 950 @ 1080P

mlqbh0.jpg



the test is dated 2nd December 2015 so they have working samples of a next gen gpu which seems to be a low power notebook gpu. Hopefully more leaks coming in the next few months. Both cards are on medium preset for Battlefront but for comparison we know that ultra preset on a gtx 950 gets about 48 fps.
