Not this year I guess.
Thanks HH, great review as always. So the 56 is the only attractive part in the Vega lineup, despite its higher power draw vs the 1070. I think Nvidia will not sit idly by or give AMD any breathing room. Would expect a statement from them in next few days or weeks about a Volta release, simply to take the wind out of vega sales. If they push volta forward and give a firm release date, that could do it.

Translation, "We expected more from AMD."

No they really haven't. A quarter ago, he said something along the lines nothing will change with Vega release, and that they remain confident in Pascal.
And albeit Huang can sometimes give PR-like statements, but then he smiles and you can see he's half joking, this answer was given in a serious tone.
For me the biggest hint was the amount of 1080Ti AIB models arriving during Vega finishing touches.

New hardware is always grossly overpriced... nothing ever launches at MSRP. Shortage and desire to buy makes prices inflated.
At the moment you can't buy a RX 4/5x0 here, you can't buy a GTX 1060 at anything close to what they were a year ago. They're almost 50% more expensive.
Vega is going to sit at "too expensive" for a while.
And those saying "nvidia can just lower their prices" - well, no, they obviously can't.
I think Nvidia already has though, 1070s now start around £360, while Vega64 starts at £550.
I'm also hearing that this is actually the new MSRP and the $500 was actually just a launch price and it will be $600 going forward which likely means $500/£450 for Vega 56.
