One of the vega cards amd is coming out with has 1tb of cache on the gpu lol
They had 4 of those cards rendering 4K video live. It was crazy!!
And if anyone knows anything about rendering video it is awesome
They also had one playing doom and max everything at 60fps
So the new amd vegas are like 1080ti's ATM it could change

1tb cache ? some form of vram HBM v2 perhaps -- that would speed up ZEC mining tremendously

1080ti is only at 11gb vram gddr5... the vega could be a game changer but at what price?

i hope vega comes out and pushes 1080ti down below 500$.... wishful thinking...

I think AMD and NVIDIA will learn to tango and waltz together and leverage the mining scene

They canned hbm and went cache instead
They said it's like ssd cache.
No prices as of right now.
Probably won't know until preorders go out.
But they changed how the gpu processes things like they did with the ryzen CPU

interesting...... this is a killer blow to the memory guys too.

looking forward to test drive vega soon

Yep and these are proof of concept so I think they are not what we will see for mining.

The card they showed had dual M.2 slots in it each supporting 512Gig SSDs. This lets them bypass the PCIE bus to talk to memory for running things like crazy graphics filters. I don't see this being of much use to miners at this point, just my $0.02.
