Raja Koduri confirms at an event on Reddit, where he has been asked about the AMD Vega, that at Computex 2017 they will show the gaming version of these graphics cards.
We were very excited about Computex 2017, because there AMD in theory was going to present on May 31, the first graphics cards based on AMD Vega. Until now we only had vague information about this presentation and no kind of confirmation about it. Thanks to a question and answer event on Reddit, towards Raja Koduri, held yesterday, we have learned that during the conference scheduled at Computex 2017, AMD will present an AMD RX Vega. This is great news, since after seeing the professional version, we will see the gaming version.
Raja Koduri has confirmed that the RX Vega will be present at Computex, but that they will not go on sale that same week, although he has not made it clear when they will go on sale.

We know how excited you are to get your hands on Radeon RX Vega, and we’re working hard to deliver an incredibly powerful graphics card to you. Developing products with billions of transistors and groundbreaking architecture is incredibly challenging, but extremely rewarding. We’re working as hard as we can to bring Radeon RX Vega to market.”[/quote]
In addition, the head of the development of the GPUs, has commented that the AMD Radeon Vega Frontier Edition will arrive with two stacks of HBM2 memory, which means that they have a stack of 8GB of HBM2 memory, something that had not been known. This offers a bandwidth of 480GB / s, which should be more than enough for most of today's heavy jobs.

“As for the HBM2, we are incorporating a technology that has been limited until now to super expensive GPUs and out of the reach of many users. Right now only the most expensive graphics cards of our competitors make use of it, but unfortunately these cards are not available to any gamer or casual user ”.
"The good news is that unlike the HBM1, the HBM2 is offered by multiple memory vendors, including Samsung and Hynix, and production is increasing to meet the level of demand we think Radeon Vega products will have when they hit the market." .

During this talk we have witnessed interesting information, no doubt, although the most interesting is yet to come, since at Computex 2017 it will be when AMD Vega will be seen in all its splendor, something that we are quite looking forward to, since these graphics cards aims to give a lot to talk about and be a guaranteed alternative to the high-end NVIDIA, something that currently does not happen, since the RX 500 Series compete with the NVIDIA GTX 1060 and thank you.
