History
PredecessorRadeon 500 Series
SuccessorNavi Architecture

The AMD RX Vega series is a series of graphics processors produced by AMD. These cards are to use the Vega architecture, are to feature HBM2 high-speed memory[1] and will continue to use the 14nm FinFET architecture.[2] Vega will be the first to use the new Graphics Core Next 5th generation and will be succeeded by the Navi architecture in 2018.[3]

Microarchitecture

The Vega microarchitecture is set to be AMD's upcoming flagship graphics cards,[4] and is to be the successors to the RX 300 series enthusiast Fury products and is set to launch in 2017.

Partial specifications of the architecture and Vega 10 GPU were announced with the Radeon Instinct MI25 in December 2016.[5] The GPU is expected to have 12.5 TFLOPS of single precision performance. AMD later teased details of the Vega architecture which is to target increased instructions per clock, higher clock speeds, and support HBM2.[6][7][8] Pre-release performance comparisons of the RX Vega series to Nvidia's Geforce 10 series have also been inferred based on the professionally targeted Radeon Vega Frontier Edition.[9]

Announcement

Vega was originally announced at AMD's CES 2017 presentation on January 5, 2017[10] alongside the Zen line of CPUs.[11] Raja Koduri, Senior Vice President and Chief Architect of the Radeon Technologies Group,[12] stated "It is incredible to see GPUs being used to solve gigabyte-scale data problems in gaming to exabyte-scale data problems in machine intelligence. We designed the Vega architecture to build on this ability".[10]
