[wccftech] AMD Planning Graphics Refresh in 2015, 16nm FinFET In 2016

[wand3r3r]

Mark Papermaster has made it very clear that AMD will be introducing both 28nm (Carrizo and Carrizo-L) and 20nm products (Skybridge, Console APU shrink, GPUs) next year. He did not specify which products exactly will go on which process but it can be deduced from AMD’s previous official statements, rodmaps as well as very legitimate leaks that indeed AMD will introduce both 28nm and 20nm products as described above.

I didn't see this posted yet.

I've wanted to know how AMD can compete on new nodes. I think with HBM + better node they can be competitive in GPU and APU.
I also have high hopes for their new CEO.

But this is just my gut feeling that they'll be doing better by 2016.

The consensus is that we're expecting GNC 2.0 graphics on 28nm with HBM, due to issues with 20nm for high performance GPUs.

Now, if the leaked performance is correct, GCN 2.0 looks to be killer and more efficient that even Maxwell.

I hope the summer of 2015 is not true, cause that's too long of a wait.
That's close to running Hawaii for 2 whole years which itself is a minimal improvement over it's predecessor.
