The enthusiast graphics card, AMD Vega 10, known for its high-performance will be gracing the Capsaicin and Cream event in the Gaming Developers Conference 2017. AMD will be showcasing its latest AMD Radeon RX 500 Series family that will feature the high-end Vega and mainstream Polaris cards.

AMD is poised to stun the GPU market as it brings its newest Radeon RX 500 series and VR technologies in GDC 2017 going live on Feb. 28. The soon-to-be-launched GPUs will be based on the latest Next Compute Unit (NCU) graphics architecture. These will replace the RX 400 series with AMD claiming that the successor will have better performance, improved efficiency to face-off NVIDIA's Pascal lineup. Its flagship card will also be based on the powerful Vega 10 GPU that was shown at CES 2017.

The upcoming AMD Radeon RX 500 Series lineup is reported to come in several variants. AMD will offer cards to varying consumers covering the top-tier to the lowest-tier. This was revealed by credible Wccftech sources, but with several months ahead of launch, these may still be altered. Nonetheless, enthusiasts will have something to look forward to with regards to the top-tier variants in the series that will feature Vega 10 GPUs with a brand-new architecture hierarchy and powered by HBM2. This new standard results in a faster GPU and memory speeds.

The AMD Vega 10 GPU is expected to be released after the first half of 2017. Observers expect a launch price not lower than $699 due to the HBM2 standard according to Tweak Town. The card comes with 2 HBM2 stacks that are 4-Hi configured with 4GB capacity. The card may also feature an 8GB of VRAM only if a greater number of stacks or a high-density memory will be available on the HBM2 products. Vega 10 will produce a total bandwidth of 409.6 GB/s, which is lower than the 512 GB/s of the Fury X, AMD's first-generation HBM product.

The AMD Radeon RX 500 series also has the mainstream or performance-tier GPUs, which is the Vega 11. This is the consumer-oriented card designed for general use so pricing is expected to be lower than $300. The existing Radeon RX 480 for this segment retails at $199 for the 4GB variant. More likely, the Vega 11 will opt for the more traditional memory capacity since the price of the HBM2 is steep. AMD may also choose to have a single stack design.

The entry-tier product in the AMD Radeon RX 500 series will feature a Polaris GPU, which is by far the company's most competitive and popular product. It may be possible that the Radeon RX 460 with Polaris 11 core may get rebranded as the Radeon RX 560 for 2017. More details will be revealed about AMD's latest GPU lineup at the GDC event.
