AMD Radeon RX rumor: 12nm Polaris 30 in the 4th quarter

AMD Radeon RX rumor: 12nm Polaris 30 in the 4th quarter

A fairly credible source in the past at the Chiphell forums is now mentioning that AMD might be releasing a new (another) version of Polaris. Polaris 30 would be manufactured at 12 nm and would be 15 percent faster compared to the current RX 570 and 580, Radeon RX 680?


This new info opens up a whole new ballpark of speculation, will there be a Radeon RX 600 series of GPUs based on Polaris? The current generation is built on 14 nm FinFET LPP+. So if AMD moves to a 12nm part, the clocks could indeed be bumped up a bit more, much like what Zen+ is doing for Ryzen 2000.

It's not the first time that this rumor now has surfaced and for now, it is just that, a rumor from Chiphells forum user wjm47196, via computerbase. So take it with a grain of salt.

It would be rather interesting if it will be at last more efficient perf/w and worthy perf/$ from its preview generation models.

I mean look at vega. It failed. Newer generation never meant to be more power hungry and more expensive AT THE SAME TIME than previous one. Vega would be a success if it would be more eco friendly than fury, this was never supposed to happen.

Let's see if AMD learned something from the last year's fiasco.

AMD needs volume for these GPUs. Lots of them and at good prices. Bread and butter GPUs.

They sold everything they could produce.
That is not failure. Its not a big win, its middling, but certainly not a failure.

On topic, Its going to be a very fun Autumn-Winter this year :) This nm shift will give the same clocks, but lower power, or higher clocks, at the same power. Going from the past, it would be higher clocks at the same power.

So AMD doing a re-spin of Polaris on 12nm (with GDDR6?), and Nvidia could be putting Turing (Probably = Volta - (Tensor+FP64)) with GDDR6 out to dry.
No new tech until Xmas/New year at least....

"Volume"?

Like in "Sells volume"?

Good luck with that.

Mining craze is over (for now (?)) so AMD "gaming" GPUs must compete with Nvidia gaming GPUs in performance and performance per dollar in a strange market: PC gaming GPUs used for GAMING.

The same market they failed to compete since 4-5 years...

I would only buy an used GPU for less than half the price (not what they are asking for), so I'd gladly buy the RX670 over any GPU on the used marked that was used for mining.
I wonder if they'll get GDDR6 too. Although more expensive, it uses less power and has more density I think so less chips or bigger memory. Or a smaller bus and same speed as GDDR5 equivalent because of higher clocks.
