Did she say what the memory was? HBM or? I heard Lisa say 16GB though.

if £400 I will buy 2
16 GB HBM. 1 TB/sec bandwidth I believe she said.
Radeon 7 (vega II). 7nm. 60 compute units. 25% performance per watt improvement. 16GB @ 1TB/sec.
the 25% seems to translate directly to FPS too (dx12, fortnite, vulkan all at least 25% increase).
25% on top 1080 performance of vega 64.... 1080ti+
Yup, no huge improvement but... if that's cheap... so, anything south of a 2080ti is AMD's win... that's big enough (depends on price).

Unlikely they'll announce any prices today.

If its matching or beating a 2080, pricing will be key. Concerned that 16GB HBM will make it too expensive though.
If they manage to bring it a price where its cheaper than RTX however, it may be interesting. We need more benchmarks too.

They dont need to beat them if the price performance is there, because Nvidia doesnt have anything new right now either, 2080/2080ti have only just come out.
16GB HBM though makes me think that unless they've found some way to improve price economics, they are still going to find things tough until Navi.
That said, it puts them in a better position than before with Vega 64.

If its cheaper they dont need to
No. Vega 64 launched at $450 so if we were living in normal times, it'd be a similar price. If so, it'd be faaaaar cheaper than its competitor. However, they will probably only undercut the 2080 by a little bit to recoup some cash.
