    I don't know why you are commenting either.

    Especially when PCIe 4 consumer SSDs are out. I saw an Inland 1TB PCIe 4 x4 for $170 in stock at Micro Center. Amazon has it for $10 more. There's at least two other ones you can find on shelves.

    ayyy you missed the point. samsung pcie 4 ssd's. samsung is really the only people i trust my storage with. and i think others will agree with that statement.

    No, not really. That sounds like misguided brand loyalty to me.

    The current iteration of the pcie 4 phison controller is awful man. Those ssd's are hotter than and less stable than the kim kardashian family. This is a fact. Samsung is the leader in nvme ssd's. It's not just some funny meme i'm making here. The later they get into this, the more I worry they may not.

    The successor to the Phoenix memory controller is in production, but I think it is being relegated to data center drives for now. I expect to see a consumer SSD with the new controller by CES 2020, but hopefully it will be announced sooner

    I'm still waiting for next generation GPUs to leverage the 16 GB HBM2 stacks. It has been about a year since we last saw a new GPU utilizing HBM be launched (Vega 20 for data centers). We should be approaching the launch window for a new nVidia card to replace Volta but things are similarly quiet on this front. I would suspect that that would leverage 16 GB stacks currently in production and these 24 GB stacks would be a nice refresh a year later.

    Yeah you could do 64GB or 96GB with 4 stacks. That's pretty nuts. I bet nvidia will come out with a big 7nm datacenter GPU soon though -- the process is definitely ripe enough now.

    yup, I think next Quadro will do exactly that.

    So what is expected price point with 12GB and 6GB ones, and is it anywhere close to GDDR6/LPDDR4?
    State of the art is not what I will ever touch with my hands, BUT if anyone will FINALLY add 6 GB HBM to APU ram pool (with 6 GB HBM on die and any amount of DDR4, you will mount with sticks), I want this just for wants.
