AMD Announces 7nm Radeon RX Radeon Vega Instinct with 32 GB HBM2
AMD at Computex just shared the word that is it announcing 7nm Radeon RX Vega the first model will be a deep-learning SKU, ther Radeon Instinct 7nm 32 GB HBM2,
7nm is good for power consumption mentioned AMD in the demo, the GPU is already in sampling stage. Specs have not been mentioned we expect this die-shrink would get the same 64 CUs / 4096 shader processors as in Vega 10 (the current one), who knows for sure really.
“Thanks to additional improvements at both the transistor and process levels, the 7LP technology is exceeding initial performance targets and expected to deliver greater than 40 percent more processing power and twice the area scaling than the previous 14nm FinFET technology,” was stated by GlobalFoundries back in last year, mid-June.
World's first demo of 7nm Vega with 32GB HBM2 on Cinema 4D was shown during the event. AMD will bring 7nm Vega towards gaming as well, no timeframe is mentioned though.

Sad, AMD also wants a slice of the AI cake and we lose as there is no competition in the market. its basically dead with 2 year old architectures being sold for higher than MSRP prices...

A bit. Mining allowed delay in new releases. But it did not cause slowdown in actual development done by AMD. That slowness comes from some other source.
Good thing is that even while slide with timeline is pretty generic, it shows "Next-Gen" before 2020 and after. navi looks like 6~8 months away. That's our gaming refresh. And those AI optimizations/Fast Interconnect, that may help in future too.

there's no "slowness" Vega simply failed to deliver, HBM was too expensive and too late, performance was not enough, availability was ridiculous. if Vega was to threaten even a little the Nvidia market share, we would have seen Nvidia geforce launch NOW.
exactly what happened in the CPU market, Ryzen proved to be really good and intel preemptively released Coffee lake at MSRP prices to try and stop the bleeding

Vega was unfinished, half dead GPU, where you have like 20% of transistors just sitting there.
AMD could as well take Polaris, scale it to same amount of transistors. That would give 96 instead of 64 CUs and 14nm would take care of achievable clock. It would be clocked lower to fit in same TDP, but would definitely deliver quite more graphical and compute horsepower than Vega64. Big reason why 1080Ti runs circles around Vega 64, is that any part of architecture which did no get performance per clock improvement since Fury X, scaled-up only via clock. And nVidia's jump in clock from 980Ti to 1080Ti was quite better + GPU beefed up on number of functional blocks.

Is there something missing at the end of this line @Hilbert Hagedoorn ? Not sure
So this is going to be a very, very boring year GPU wise.
