HBM is not cheap. And for that throughput to be feasible, it also needs to be in close proximity as well.

- ksec 7y agoWell that is HBM, not GDDR. And price / value differs to each individuals. Example the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti is only $1099. A Chip that is nearly 800mm2 die size. Pretty damn good if you ask me. They could have bump the Memory to 32GB and charge me $1500 which would give them even higher margin. I hope that is something AMD would do, pushing more Cores in CPU, pushing more Graphics Memory in GPU, let the developer figure out how to best use it.
- AstralStorm 7y agoThe slight problem is space on die. Higher density GDDR6 just don't exist, and attempting to connect more chips quickly runs into die size limitations and routing problems.
