by Slobodan-Simic (Sep, 2014)Each GPC also features a memory controller, or in this case four 64-bit memory controllers for a 256-bit wide memory interface.
by Sebastian-Anthony (Sep, 2014)GI is historically very computationally expensive — which is why it has been eschewed by video games — but Nvidia’s new voxel-based approach is efficient enough that real-time 3D games can use it.

My response was met with a sly smile, and then Polaris hit the mainstream sub $300 market in a big way.
I'd love to have Vega 10 in my hands before I talk performance, but just from the technology side of things - I'm vibrating with excitement.

Unfortunately there was no major reveals other than that AMD will not be limiting AIB partners from pushing for the highest factory overclocks they can get.
Both AMD and NVIDIA appear to be bringing out GPUs better than I expected to see as far as technological improvements in performance and power usage (these die shrinks have really helped even though from here on out that trend isn't really going to continue).

AMD said that the Polaris architecture is a "historic leap in performance per watt for Radeon GPUs", and that has seen "significant" performance per watt improvements on early GPU samples and early software compared to the previous generation.
Overall, I was impressed with what AMD discussed at RTG Technology Summit and the Polaris architecture as a whole.

We’ve already seen prices come down during various black Friday sales on several GPUs, but the potential for a permanent price cut makes for interesting speculation if nothing else.
Of course, we could see an answer from AMD in the form of a price reduction from their R9 300-series or Fury/Nano..
