What speed, too bad they're expensive to use on affordable graphics.

On affordable GPUs they wouldn't be needed, or the difference would be negligible. They're usually paired with the right GPU for the best combined performance. Everything counts for the finally price: GPU, VRAM, the bus lanes, etc.

I think these could be viable and possibly even cheaper than standard gddr ram if they didn't need to use the expensive interposer with its reduced yields on top. I know its not so simple but picture if u could have the gpu with a single stack beside it instead of having 10 or however many chips surrounding the gpu.

The more they produce the better if we have any chance seeing hbm costing about as much as gddr we need more production and better yields!
