i do have a question i was thinking about and love to have your input.
could Nvidia have issue with pascal stock during H2 2016 ? if yes what chip gp104 or gp106 ?
available information i see :
AMD produce polaris 11 a 100mm² chip, and polaris a 200mm² chip, no word on pro segment probably comes with Vega, foundries Glofo & samsung sharing 14nm ip.
Nvidia produces gp 104 300mm², and gp 106 200mm², pro gp 100 600mm², foundry TSMC.
cheers!

AMD said they are only using GF, not Samsung.

NV probably won't have any issues as demand seems to be much lower than anticipated due to people's disappointment with performance/price.

Lol, do you even know how many people are in the queue for the custom 1080's!!?

Someone is 4 hundred and something in the queue for the Strix and that is just on here!

Demand is sky high.

Once they actually get going TSMC are usually good for volume - just a bit slow getting ramped up onto a new process (though it is something incredibly complex).

Agreed, I'm amazed that many people are buying high end GPU's like the 1080. Peeps saying that it isn't a high amount are bonkers. That's just one GPU variant from one retailer. Demand is massive for these.
