  • AMD will not be releasing a 32GB model of the upcoming Radeon 9070XT.  (Tom's Hardware)

    But they will be holding a launch event on February 28, with cards expected at retail in the first week of March.


  • If 32GB of memory on your graphics card isn't enough how about 4TB?  (Tom's Hardware)

    SanDisk has announced high-bandwidth flash.

    Similar to high-bandwidth memory (HMB) it uses a stack of flash dies connected to a very wide bus to deliver hundreds of gigabytes per second of bandwidth.

    And then, in SanDisk's plan, you put it on a video card so you have terabytes of local memory - since flash is much cheaper and smaller than DRAM.

    Problem is of course that it's also a lot slower, at least for writes.  But if your entire dataset can live semi-permanently on your video card, is that a problem anymore?
