AMD VEGA confirmed for 2017 H1

Matt knows something, appears in the forum after a little tease by Gibbo, could we finally get some decent accurate info after all these months of !@#& measuring.
 
Wonder if Vega will have HDMI 2.1?

Worth noting most 4K TVs from the quality brands actually have 120 Hz panels already, but you can't take advantage of it with HDMI 2.0.

Next year we'll be getting HDMI 2.1 TVs that support Freesync 2 and can be driven at full 120 Hz from an HDMI 2.1 GPU.

I like the sound of a 32" 4K TV for a monitor with:
  • 120 Hz
  • Freesync 2
  • HDR
  • Pixels as small as a 16" 1920x1080 monitor. So super sharp.

Was doubtful myself until it was announced that scorpio would support it. Would be insanely disappointed if amd decided to ship vega without it.

What we do know for sure is, it is Gibbo is "very impressed" and he does not strike me as someone who is easily impressed. Actually I will take that back, I just remembered he was impressed by some youtuber chick called nerdphilia when hardly anyone else was. lol :p

Gibbo has traditionally been very fair with his little hints and never knowingly misled to my knowledge. The question for me is whether Gibbo is impressed by performance or by price. For people with disposable budget, the hope is for the former. :)

Gibbo isn't going to be that impressed with price if performance isn't there to sell the products.
He wouldn't be impressed if it was GTX1080 performance even at GTX1070 price. And given the pricing of the RX580 that is not the case.

So we are looking something at around ~£500 with the performance of the GTX1080Ti onwards. That could easily make him to say he is very impressed and possibly inline of what we know the card is capable.

But we shall see.
 
Think we're over analysing things a bit now picking apart every word haha.
Personally I would be 'impressed' with near or at TitanX performance. No less.
