I thought we'd have a dedicated thread for the details and event. Worst case, if it doesn't provide details, it can be folded back into the existing Navi Speculation thread.

"fastest GPU we've ever built"

Sounds like it won't be faster than GA102.

I still haven't been able to buy a GA102-powered card to replace my 2080 Ti so I was hoping maybe AMD had something up its sleeve this time with all the recent talk of a "game cache" and high boost clocks.

 

[Jawed]

Damn that's big!

 

[tunafish]

That does look like a lot of cache on the perimeter

 

[Leoneazzurro5]

Cache is there

 

[Man from Atlantis]

26.7 billion transistors

 

[Rootax]

Holy Moly ....

 

[LordEC911]

Haha, they did use the Infinity Cache name.

Infinity Cache DOUBLE CONFIRMED!!!

 

[Ike Turner]

Yoooo

"Based on Zen L3 cache"

2.17x the bandwidth with infinity cache + 256GB g6 over 384b g6 ?

direct x storage supported

 

[Rootax]

Look like some work on zen2/3 really helped with rdna2 design.

That's what I heard her say.
