With AMD’s Polaris cards now available for the public, the spotlight now focuses on AMD’s next generation of GPUs: Vega. Today, a source from VideoCardz has received some information from AMD’s internal server roadmap, and it paints a picture as to what to expect from Vega.
The first piece of info is related to Vega 10. Releasing sometime in the first quarter of 2017, this card will come with 64 Compute Units and 24 TFLOPS of 16-bit computing power. Vega 10 will be based on the 14nm architecture codenamed GFX9, it will sport 16GB of HBM2 memory with a bandwidth of 512GB/s, and its TBP is clocked in at around 225W. Interestingly, the source also states that a dual Vega 10 card is in the works, and will be released in the second quarter of 2017. This dual Vega 10 card will have a TBP of around 300W.
AMD will also be releasing the Vega 20 GPU. Based on the 7nm GFX9 architecture, the Vega 20 will come with 64 Compute Units, 32GB of HBM2 memory with roughly 1TB/s of bandwidth, and a TBP of around 150W. Vega 20 will support PCIe 4.0, a feature that will only be present sometime next year. Finally, we have Vega 11. No specifications were given for the Vega 11, although the source did mention that AMD is looking to replace Polaris with Vega 11 next year.
Like always, until AMD personally confirms the specifications listed above, you should not take this information as gospel.
