AMD has announced within CES conference that their next initiative for Vega will be for mobile GPUs and Radeon Instinct for machine learning. Two major updates: Vega Mobile GPUs used within Intel's semi-custom chips using EMIB will also be available as discrete GPUs and that Vega will be refreshed within a 7nm fabrication for release in Radeon Instinct GPUs for productivity, which confirms the existence of Vega 20. It seems unlikely Vega 20 will have a consumer card anytime soon this year, especially since current Vega cards have a hard time being in stock around the market. But this is a win for AMD in a way, Navi is still in the picture and Vega is coming to mobile discrete market meaning that any laptops you use with its own discrete Intel or better yet AMD CPU can utilize to the full extent of the product line-up. Sales boost will be high since the flagship card is a 1060 Max-Q killer. As for miners, I hope they get some of the action here and leave the gaming cards to us. I mean ETH just hit over $1300 few hours ago.
I could ask for a 1070 mobile killer but I think AMD has done quite enough on their own with new products. They have a lot to do in 2018, starting off with Intel Kaby Lake G series semi-custom chipsets or as I call, SoCs. Then Ryzen+ as Ryzen 2000 series with a new X470 chipset for motherboards, Ryzen APUs and Navi on the horizon of fall 2018. If we want the best bang for buck from AMD, let's pray they win on the market side and put their grievances with Nvidia aside before they can have a huge comeback just like they did with AMD R9 200 series cards that destroyed Kepler entirely. I think the best part of CES that came out was the discrete mobile Vega GPUs. Cross your fingers that replaces desktop RX 500 series based on Polaris soon enough. Kind of had it with AMD's rehashing of same architectures.
