Some main features of the Vega 10 GPU would include an improved GCN design which will lead to better GPU efficiency compared to Polaris and use of HBM2 standard. It’s not known whether Vega will consist of an entire stack of HBM2 GPUs or just the top-end stack. The way AMD shows the product positioning of Vega in the road map shows that the former could be true with both Vega 10 and Vega 11 utilizing the latest HBM2 standard that delivers insane amount of bandwidth, higher VRAM capacity and lower power consumption compared to HBM1 and GDDR5.
