Will we see low-end gpu's with DDR4 memory instead of DDR3?

Low-end gpus use DDR3 memory and higher priced gpus use GDDR5 memory and are starting to use HBM/HBM2 memory. Will we see DDR4 memory being used on low-end gpus within the next couple of years or so?

I wouldn't have thought so, by the time hbm is the norm on the mid to high end the low end will likely just get gddr5 with gddr3 becoming completely obsolete.

GDDR5 is more expensive and uses more power, they won't be using that on their cheapest gpus.
