AMD VEGA confirmed for 2017 H1

3DCenter updated GPU 2017-2018 roadmap has specs on Vega 20, Vega 10 and Vega 11 GPUs as well as Volta GPUs.

Vega 11 measured 350mm2 is smaller than Vega 10. Don't know why people came up with crazy theory about Vega 11 is bigger than Vega 10.

Poor Vega and poor Navi mean monster Volta Titan and 2080 Ti will have no competitors for about 2 years, look like RTG is about 5 or 10 years lagging behind Nvidia on R&D and Nvidia is far ahead of RTG. When Navi come out in H2 2019 and Nvidia will unveiled successor that will be twice faster than Volta on performance per watt.

So according to the above chart, we aren't even getting the 'big Vega' till after June as it says Q3 2017... I also find it hard to believe that they'd put the performance on level with Titan XP and 1080ti.The smaller Vega looks alright though, as long as it's priced right against the GTX 1070. And that's if the above chart is to be believed and if it's not all hocus.

Anyhows, I'm looking for to computex tomorrow, so we can finally get info on consumer Vega.

What a load of baloney.

Sorry but I can't be going through 50 pages just now. Can anyone tell me. When exactly is the AMD press event, and where can I watch it online. Either Live, or the following morning? Ta,

I am sure if it's of prime interest then many websites will have the relevant information in the morning.

Has specs? so why did they put estimates on the graph? Should be no estimates if they have specs unless..... They are just guessing. Nonsense as per usual from you.

First paragraph says its purely speculative. Do you even know what that means?

Also there is no info in that link or anywhere that you said which shows what Navi will be spec wise. Id be surprised if anyone knew at this point. So stop with the bait and trolling.

Even if they were fact, I don't know how he came to the conclusion that Navi is suddenly bad without even being on the chart. Nvidia still haven't even stated what is coming after Volta so in 2 years time who knows where we will be.

I personally find it very unusual that we knew about Volta even before Maxwell released, but now that they're starting to show off Volta we don't know what will be next.

Yea exactly. It's just AthlonXP1800 doing what he does best. Finds what ever nonsense he can find regardless if its credible or not. Say his piece even though the article says nothing to back up what he says and makes it out to be fact.

In that article it literally says it's speculative, meaning guess work. He says they have specs makes it out they know what vega will perform like and lets be honest no one knows what AMD cards will perform like untill reviews. He just likes to troll the GPU section.

Navi will be to Nvidia what Threadripper and Epyc are to Intel, just more so because all Nvidia can do is try to make a more monolithic piece of silicon or start from scratch.

I had some very bad experiences with AMD cards but still I will wait until computex for the vega news before getting a GTX 1080, AMD has to try really hard to convince me to get vega insteed of the GTX1080.

sure the vega is going to be faster than the GTX1080 and cheaper at the same time, however peace of mind is number one priority for me. (it is not a coincidence that nvidia cards outsell AMD cards, peace of mind is a big beal)

Just get up early instead to watch the last 30 seconds where they say "Join us at E3 for the Vega announcement"

Not sure what exactly you are expecting to hear during AMD's presentation on the 31st, but I'm sure we won't be seeing any trustworthy benchmarks, just fluff and possibly a release date with pricing.

Yea it's called marketing. And AMD suck at it lol.

Lol. Had more problems with nvidia drivers than with AMD. Peace of Mind lel... this should be a meme

Sometimes I think nvidia's PR/marketing (i.e. propaganda

) is so good that they could become the new nazis, Jensen Huang being Hitler obviously, us AMD users better be careful!
