Waiting for Vega, which is AMD's answer to the 1080
- NTripleOne 9y agoit seems increasingly common that that's the team red mantra nowadays, "Wait for x". Wait for ryzen. Wait for vega. Wait for ryzen again.
- quickben 9y agoAmd cpu line is rolling out. You can buy ryzen. Vega is coming out this year. Volta isn't consumer based. Go check the enterprise prices. Consumer Volta is mid 2018, so this, from a consumer perspective, is a paper launch.
- slizard 9y agoThat's a blanket-statement and ends up being incorrect/inaccurate. The top Vega card is HBM2, not even in the same ballpark as the 1080. Also, recent Linux patches hint that there will be dual-chip water-cooled Vega boards too which is likely not even 1080 Ti regime: https://www.techpowerup.com/233208/linux-drivers-point-to-upcoming-amd-rx-vega-liquid-cooled-dual-gpu-solution https://www.techpowerup.com/233208/linux-drivers-point-to-up...
