Realistic performace expectations from both NVidia and AMD 2016 GPU's

I could be wrong, but I believe that's when they were comparing it to 14nmLPE (referencing the comparisons of the iPhone having better battery life with 16nm than 14nm).

According to Samsung, 14nmLPP consumes 15% less power and produces 15% more performance. Making ~35% increase in performance per watt over LPE.

Possibly true. Then of course there is the marketing buzz though, because both technologies are based around a very similar 20nm node of the same dimension, 14/16n is just a marketing name so I would be curious why and what the actual difference is between the 2.
 
Well the demonstration of Hitman in DX12 at capsaicin last night showed Polaris 10 running at a constant 60FPS frame capped. so we already know that it matches a 1.38ghz 980TI / Fury at 2560x1440p.

But then it was frame capped so we don't know what its upper limit is, just that it can hit that. So we know it has Fury x performance in DX12 at the least.

Also HBM2 appears to be limited to Greenlan/Vega10 early-mid next year for big polaris.

All we know for sure is 14nm is a teeny tiny bit smaller than 16nm (genuinely, and not just in the name).
