Great, maybe my AM4 mounting bracket will be out by then too.

4Gb Vram for the next high end gen, lmao. Vega is DOA
>>59637496
>b-but muh 3.5 meme
>>59637496
>Current year
>releasing a high-end GPU with 4GB of VRAM
AMD stands for Absolutely Mad and Demented
They are just rebrands of the 400 series
Another Massive Dissapointment
>>59637496
>>59638261
4gb STACKS you fucking idiots
americans literally can't read
>>59638306
>be graphic card manufacturer
>can build 1 stack or 2 stacks
>build 1 to save money cause HBM2 is expensive
>still charge >$400 for new (((High end))) cards
AMD is kekked
>>59638306
Where does it say that? Not in the article posted.
>>59638306
>AMD did reveal that there will be two different memory configurations for Vega, 4GB and 8GB.
>the High-Bandwidth Cache Controller (HBCC) will enable better use of VRAM, which could mean that even with 'only' 4GB VRAM, Vega will still be able to perform well. And it's not like most games are pushing much beyond 4-6GB of VRAM use, let alone 8GB.
This clearly says the smaller card will have only 4GB of VRAM.
AMD is finished before they started. Like always.
>>59638397
You realise that most games that use over 6GB of GDDR5 only require around 3GB of HBM2? RAM usage is far lower because of how it can allocate it.
itt muh >4GiB vram meme
>>59639396
this
Nvidiots on suicide watch.
>>59636910
>you ready for polaris 11Gb reskin ?
Oh boy, i sure can't wait....
can't wait for 5% more performance for 20% higher price!
>>59639446
(You)
>>59639396
>suddenly amdtrads insist games don't need more than 4GB VRAM
what about your 3.5gb meme? did redteam+ HQ change the narrative
>>59639396
why is the fury x so shit in high resolutions?
>>59639885
>3.5 is more than 4
Back to 1st grade, anon.
I'm probably getting an RX550 to just get DP.
>>59640104
Radeon needs it's own Amada-like mascot.
>>59639396
lol
>>59639396
>games that use over 6GB of GDDR5 only require around 3GB of HBM2
[citation needed]
RedTeam+ is getting desperate, I see. I guess you have some early egineering samples with HBM2 and have run some tests and your dad works at nintendo.
>>59636910
yea right
>>59637496
It's hbm. You don't need as much vram because it uses memory more efficiently.
>>59640104
Can't wait for everyone to try and sell their 480s for a rebranded model.
>tfw want to fuck arisuu
>>59636910
RX500 is Polaris refresh
Vega is Vega
>>59636910
Nvidia R.I.P.
where were you when lossless texture compression has been improved even more so a game which needs atleast 4gb of memory can be handled by a 3gb card
>>59640421
Like how everyone sold their 7970s for the 380? It won't happen. It's just to offer an update on the card for the same or lower prices and branding it as new to get a higher market share
Vega is for upgrading
>>59640811
>compression
No need in this, buy GPU.
>>59640839
but the 380 is a 285 rebrand which is again was a brand new card. 7970 is a different card.
>>59641054
>Brand new
It's a refinement of the same architecture
7970 > 280x was exactly the same card
285 > 380 was the same architecture, different specced card
>>59639843
man, i get the joke and all, but i still feel awful about what happened to that kid, jewed by his brother like that
