AMD 7nm GPU News and Rumours 2018/2019

What rock You been under ?? I'w read that there wont be no 7nm gamers vega months ago...https://www.pcgamesn.com/amd-7nm-vega-not-for-gaming

Was said many times many months after that.
Those 7nm vegas are good pro cards.

Thng is AMD cant make vega Cheap enough to be gamer attractive product. HBM adds sooo much cost.

No rock bud lol. I didn't see the stream, so hoped there was some info for gamers in there but seems not. Regardless of what is in my machine, I still love some tech news for my fun times :)

Must be why AWS signed them up then, because they obviously don't have a clue :p

And calling me weak minded... Take a look in the mirror before insulting people.

Amazon now offers AMD EPYC CPUs, there is no Vega offering. You might want to start thinking before posting.

I didn't call you weak minded, I said that people who think I hate AMD are weak minded.

all we will see is new polaris replacement in 2019 with performance around 1080 thats about it.

Can't disagree with you because I have no idea what AMD is cooking and am sure you also don't. I can however provide what I think will happen.
2019 - navi new polaris, followed by a Vega refresh on 7nm
If you think amd is only going to use 7nm for server GPUs I believe you be very mistaken.

The Vega announcement yesterday is a dead giveaway that amd is focusing on that line up for the highend.

How fast can they achieve from a die shrink I again have no idea.

There won't be a 7nm Vega gaming card because that's what Navi is for. Navi is replacing Vega as the gaming architecure, and replacing Polaris as the midrange product; Polaris 30 will still exist, but it will be classified as the entry-level product. Of course there is scope for a gaming card based on Vega 20, but I doubt it would be any good. There's also talk of a "Big" Navi 20 which might be the 2019/202 Instinct card, or might be the big gaming card.

But we have Arcturus coming in 2020 which is where AMD will start looking at getting back into the high-end gaming cards.

TL:DR Anything worth noting from the stream from a gamers perspective? I missed the live stream as I was working late last night.

Nah not at all, just the first ever showing of a 7nm CPU and first ever 7nm GPU.

Oh and AMD didn't deem it worthy enough to actually do an official live stream, we only got to watch it at all because of one tech site had a camera set up and streamed it, complete with heads in the way and loud clicking from everyone around him typing.:D:p:D

Do You think AMD would be able to sell 7nm vega at 800 pounds with 2080 performance ??

Vega 7nm will onyl be used for servers and HPC.

Navi will be 7nm but most sources indicate it will be a mid-range part. That liekly puts it at 1080 performance, maybe slightly more.

However AMD MI60 points yesterday against Nvidia solutions were

a) Open Source
b) No licences
c) doesn't need links
d) cheaper.
Click to expand...

You forgot e) slower

AMD MI60 FP32 14.7 TFlops

NVidia RTX6000 FP32 16.3 TFlops

And on 7nm vrs 12nm aswell…….;)
 
It is a fair point. Looking at the flops, 7nm should be better than 12nm surely and big business isn't going to quibble over prices like that for time and efficiency I expect (not that I really know what big businesses do) :)

We do not have any proof of this at all. its all speculation atm. We have Polaris and VEGA now why wouldn't we have a Navi replaces Polaris and a VEGA refresh on 7nm?

Again I have no idea what speed 7nm VEGA can do so I also have no idea what price they will be.

Has this been confirmed though? all I see is speculation.
