There is some new information floating around about AMD's next-gen line-up of graphics cards. A lot is being shuffled to introduce a new line-up before the summer starts. Vega 10 and Vega 11 chips will be prioritized above Polaris in the high-end segment, Polaris remains part of the RX 500 series. 



According to the new rumors the new line-up is launched in May for AMD to create a full competitive lineup. So Vega 11 might see an advanced early introduction and would be positioned above Polaris 10. The product likely will get GDDR5X memory and would compete with GP104 aka the GeForce GTX 1070 and 1080. The much discussed flagship Vega 10 GPU based product obviously would be the leading the pack with its 12 TFLOPS (FP32) raw performance, and this will compete with Nvidia's Titan X Pascal and the likely to be released 1080 Ti.

Polaris 11 (RX 460) and Polaris 10 (RX 470 and 480) will remain to be a focus in the mainstream segment, the two really succesful GPUs will fit nicely there. 

Tuesday, February 28th at 19:30 CEST AMD should disclose more details about Vegaon their second Capsaicin event, a live stream will be available. The Complete RX 500 series likely will become available in the May time-frame.
