Some speculation on Polaris/Vega. This might not be popular opinion.
What we know-
Radeon Pro Duo: $1499 @ Q2 2016
Vega: previously known to be top of the line AI series in early 2017?
Polaris 10: Faster out of the two chips(10 and 11) with performance in range of current Fury X
My conclusion: Polaris 10 will be the top of the line branded AMD GPU this year with performance that's maybe 5-10% better than Fury X. The only big change is greatly decreased power usage. It'll be possibly marketed towards HTPC/NUC-like form factor users.
Vega is the original top of the line AI chip with 2x the performance of Fury X.
