This could be useful for a Hopper refresh as Blackwell looks to be at least a full year away from shipping. Much like Hopper, I would expect Blackwell to be announced months in advance.
They could've had hbm in consumer graphics long ago but they chose not to. They're also reducing memory bandwidths in new gpus. So NO, you won't get hbm for your gaming cards.
It's not coming to consumer but the bandwidth statement's pessimistic. They've already gotten the low hanging fruit from giant caches and without SRAM density improvements memory will need to pick up the slack. There's speculation going on about a 512 bit bus flagship or GDDR7 next gen, one of these is probably true and I don't think it's the former.

Typo? Second to last paragraph:"These modules can hit date rates as high as 9.2 GT/second"
Should be "data rates"?

Could do a ~140GB version of H100, ship it at GTC in March right before announcing Blackwell for end of the year.skinnyelephant - Saturday, September 30, 2023 - link
