AMD's pricing tends to tumble kinda quick. Expect a $500 cost in 6 months and $300 in a year. The $700 dollar is probably due to low yields right now.

  That's very unlikely. 16 GB of HBM2 alone probably costs AMD around $300, and HBM2 prices are unlikely to fall soon (they've actually been trending up, if what I've read is to be believed).

    Navi is expected by late H1, and at that point VII won't matter.

      Isn't Navi expected to be more of a mid-market Polaris replacement, rather than a Vega successor?
      • snvzz 8y ago
        It was about pricing, above. As I understand it, Navi's meant to be very aggressively priced.

  > AMD's pricing tends to tumble kinda quick. Not sure that's really been the case with the Vega Line has it?

    Yes, the RX series has been good price cuts. This begs the question of whether the VII is considered a RX series card or Vega card.

    The Vegas are currently on sale at Newegg for $100 less than the price quoted in the article. I don't know what their regular price is, though.
