AMD is releasing a flagship chip from the Volcanic Islands family manufactured at 28nm, most probably TSMC. This chip is called Hawaii. architecture is GCN 2.0.
When has a AMD flagship of a new architecture or family not been a single die GPU. never
If you have the guts to take a bet I dare you to take it. if Hawaii is not single die I will close this account and stop posting at anandtech. if Hawaii is single die you will close your anandtech account and stop posting here. willing to take the challenge. :biggrin:
When has AMD ever been in this position before? Slender work force, new CEO, restructuring, focusing mostly on APU/console wins. ??
This isn't about a manly game of who's got more guts, Raghu. Offering an ultimatum wager isn't the way to win a debate. It just shows you want me out of your hair as quickly as possible.
And single die is certainly possible. Just not a single HUGE die, but smaller ones and doubled up for Xfire performance.
