    Well AMD has the option to if necessary slap an enthusiast grade cooler on a prosumer variant of the card which I believe was designated to get HBM anyway which should have a 512 bit bus.

    Maybe thats enough to hit there goals maybe not. If not I doubt we will see that card but you never know aka radeon 7.

    Doubt board partners/aibs would know about this therefore be able to leak this as iirc radeon 7 was ref only so AMD can play that card close to the chest so to speak.

    If that happens and this is just my 2c I think AMD might have underestimated ampere as I personally don't think AMD would go the HBM route on a top tier after fury/vega/7.

    The gddr 6 cards are more than likely 256 bit as just from what I have seen electrically speaking layout wise nothing else would make sense.

    I guess its not impossible but i'm going to say highly improbable that a 256 bit bus card is going to dominate a 3080/3090.

    I've got no strings to hold me down.
    To make me fret, or make me frown.
    I had strings but now I'm free.
    There are no strings on me
