AMD is expected to launch new chipset during CES 2017. Named as AMD Radeon RX 500 Series Vega, this graphics processing unit is anticipated to boast 2X Performance, 4X Efficiency, 8X Capacity Per HBM Stack And 2X Bandwidth Per Pin.

According to WCCFTech, the AMD Radeon RX 2500 Series Vega graphics architecture is slated to make its first appearance at Consumer Electronics Show on Thursday. Although its launch is just around the corner, 3DCenter have accomplished to get some major details regarding the upcoming architecture. All the information originated from the code-base of the Vega teaser website, ve.ga.

Additionally, MobiPicker noted that Vega architecture is being flaunted as AMD's most progressive and most remarkable graphics architecture as of the moment. This GPU delivers 4x power efficiency, 2x peak throughput/performance per clock, high bandwidth cache, 2x bandwidth per pin and 8x capacity per stack.

Aside from that this architecture is armed with 512TB Virtual Address Space, next generation compute engine, next compute unit (NCU) architecture, next generation pixel engine, rapid packed math, draw stream binning rasterizer and primitive shaders. These are the basis indicating that Vega architecture is much powerful compared with Polaris.

AMD Radeon RX 2500 Series Vega is anticipated to offer 4 times more graphics performance as compared to Polaris. This is an enormous enhancement since increasing performance at such an amazing rate without having high power consumption is really amazing. This indicates that Vega can deliver double the single precision compute at the same power as Polaris.

Moreover, Vega will also offer double the performance of Polaris for any given clock speed, which gives it the "2X peak throughput/clock" feature. HBM2 arrives in stacks of up to 8GB and 256GB/s of bandwidth, thus offering 8x the capacity per stack as compared to first generation HBM. HBM2 clocks at double the HBM frequency, which translates to 2x bandwidth per pin.

AMD is expected to unveil the AMD Radeon RX 500 Series Vega at CES 2017. Moreover, the high end models are likely to sport HBM2 while the mid-range and less expensive cards are likely to have GDDR5/X memory.
