AMD is gearing up to host NVIDIA's GeForce 11 series with new GPUs based on its VEGA graphics architecture, see VEGA 20 and a mysterious VEGA 12, with a strong presence of AI computations.
VEGA 20 and a mysterious VEGA 12, AMD's new weapons in the graphics card industry
The next generation of Vega 20 GPUs from AMD's team, based on TSMC's most advanced 7nm process technology, will start sampling later this year, and we've already been able to see what it can do thanks to a 3DMark from a couple of days ago. The new GPU has been leaked in the latest LLVM compiler patches and clang alongside an all-new GPU we've never heard of called Vega 12.
AI instructions for 7nm Vega 20 confirmed
The patch has revealed that unlike its predecessors, Vega 20 will support intrinsic AI and deep learning instructions. We already heard about Vega-20 in January 2017. We were able to see, vaguely, AMD's plans to introduce a high-performance Vega chip based on the 7nm process. Confirmation of such a project, however, did not come until exactly a year later at this year's CES.
Based on all the information available to date, Vega 20 builds on Vega 10 in several key ways. Vega 20 is designed to offer 8 times more performance in double precision calculation. It also has twice the memory bandwidth and supports up to 4 HBM2 stacks. This allows you to be equipped with up to 32GB of HBM2 VRAM and have access to a whopping 1TB / s of bandwidth.
Unlike Vega 20, very little is known about Vega 12 (GFX904) other than the fact that it exists. Some speculate that it would be replacing Polaris in the 'entry-level' range, but that is pure conjecture.
