Effectively the same chip, same pcb, same vrm setup, simply some better core/mem clocks resulting from improved yield and better binning.
Do you think AMD can afford [not] to do something like this, given that it is all they have to offer for the next 18 months?
How do you think they could improve Vega? Is is memory bound?
