AMD Vega will not see the light in 2016
AMD plans to launch Vega during the first half of 2017, this could be due to two main reasons, the first that the company is focusing its efforts on the design of the new silicons to give life to PS4 Neo and Xbox Scorpio and the second and More likely, Vega's development is closely tied to that of the advanced HBM2 memory that will bring it to life.
With this we have bad news and it is that AMD is going to continue for a long time without offering an alternative to the GeForce GTX 1070, GTX 1080 and TITAN X Pascal so it is going to lose a large number of users of these ranges that they will not want wait for Vega's arrival in 2017.
So the best product that AMD can offer today under 14nm is the Radeon RX 480 with its Polaris 10 silicon that has shown remarkable behavior but cannot compete with the best of Nvidia. 2017 should be a great year for Sunnyvale folks with the arrival of Vega and the highly anticipated AMD Summit Ridge processors based on the Zen microarchitecture.
