    MI-100 - it's a dual-GPU Vega 20, much like the dual-GPU Vega 20 in the future Mac Pro.

    My guess it that it's a variant with multiple GPU dies. Much like what is going to be used in the new Mac Pro (not released yet). Might even be the same card for the most part. MI-100 would suggest that it's part of the MI family of GPUs (MI50 and MI60 are both Vega 20 aka gfx906).
    Maybe gfx908 is 906 but with some extra refinements,

    Yes if there will be no HBM inside the GPU package.

    And additionally
    Confirming that it's a workstation product is references to ECC memory,
    may but may not as refer to 2nd generation Vega known as Vega 2x or 3rd generation Vega that may be known as Vega 3x


    As of Polaris
    AMD Radeon 400 series
    Release date June 29, 2016; 3 years ago
    These cards were the first to feature the Polaris GPUs,

    and
    AMD Radeon 500 series

    The Radeon RX 500 series is a series of graphics cards made by AMD. These cards are based on the fourth iteration of the Graphics Core Next architecture, featuring GPUs based on Polaris 30, Polaris 20, Polaris 11, and Polaris 12 chips.
    Release date April 18, 2017; 2 years ago (Polaris 20)

    AMD Polaris 30
    Released Nov 15th, 2018


    So there is time for Polaris 40 and Vega 30 this year. And for next year for Navi 20. Vega 40, Polaris 50 and NextGen 10 GPUs

    This is basically what Intel did with the Knights Landing generation of Xeon Phi. They put 16 GB of MCDRAM / HMC memory in-package, to augment the 6-channels of DDR4 provided by the current Xeon server socket. Except, those had no UPI links, which prevented them from being paired in any kind of multi-socket configuration.

    Well. there s Idea


    from article of June, the 22nd, 2017
    Až 32jádrový a 64vláknový, s osmikanálovým řadičem a 128 PCIe linkami, až 64 MB L3 cache. To jsou v kostce procesory Epyc. K příležitosti jejich vydání zveřejnila AMD prezentace o celkem 182 stranách…

    It is impossible to use Navi here

    Phoronix: AMD "GFX908" Additions Land In LLVM 9.0 For New Workstation GPU

    Weeks ahead of SIGGRAPH and days ahead of the LLVM 9.0 code branching, a number of big "GFX908" commits have been landing in the AMDGPU LLVM shader compiler back-end over the past day...
