    Vega 10 should easily scale down to the 150w TDP range Polaris 10 occupies. My bet is that Vega 11, if a design actually existed, has been cancelled...
    I dont know. But Vega 11 on GDDR5(x), as in smaller ANOTHER chip, would be a very welcomed thing for AMD.Yes Vega 10 can scale down.
    But its BIG, it needs HBM2, it needs inerposer. A smaller chip (much cheaper to produce) on a widespread cheap memory is certainly something that AMD needs...

    What worries me is that at least NOW, it seems, that polaris has more performance for mm2/hz(up to 1300mhz or so).So that could be a reason to can it, or maybe rework it.
