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

The cards will have both HBM2 and an onboard SSD NVMe controller to access up to 1TB of local storage. The controller does not have to go to the "southbridge" via PCIe in order to get to mass storage.

June 5 techs review of the press release said nothing about hbm or hbm2 being on the cards
I can give links to all top hardware YouTube reviewers if needed

From the maker:
"At our products core is Vegas disruptive High Bandwidth Cache Controller, the cornerstone of the worlds most advanced GPU memory architecture. Combined with HBM2, Radeon Vega Frontier Edition helps expands the capacity of traditional GPU memory to 256TB, allowing users to tackle massive datasets with ease."
