Or maybe you just meant for multiple machines.

Not sure about Polaris (I wasn't really involved with it), but that's definitely not the case for Vega. I don't think it's true for Polaris either.

i will most probably replace gpus in all my machines with NVidia just so i can move to wayland there as well. i always only had 1, but recently number jumped to 3. as long as performance is comparable to 759Ti, it is enough to spend 200$ per card

The team pic looks about the right size for "the people in Shanghai who worked on Polaris", but way too small for "all the people who worked on Polaris".Test signature

Is there some conflict with Shanghai that I'm not aware of?

I'm pretty sure that the RX 470 4GiB would win this Perf/Cost efficiency race easily even with current drivers... A 310mm² die for 700$(GTX1080) is more than cheeky in my opinion even in the crippled 1070 version for 450$.
I think it's pretty obvious that Nvidia pushed Pascal to an unprepared release without being able to serve. The purpose of the immense price tags is to lower the demand for few weeks(Founders Edition) until enough units can be produced.

The HCCompiler and other OpenGPU Tools should be in the Ubuntu repos to encourage indie devs etc.
