    k a few things
     
    1) PCBs of computer components are not double sided, they usually have 5-10 layers
    even if there are no traces on the surface there will pretty much always be some underneath
     
    2) the card was 100% dead the moment you drilled that hole, there is no way to repair that kind of damage
    everyone saying it could be repaired is wrong
     
    3) putting the screwdriver in there was quite dangerous, you could have killed your motherboard or CPU too
     
    4) snapping the card in half just prevents someone from putting a nice GPU on their wall
    the card was impossible to repair in the first place, so snapping it cant make it worse
     
    5) make a keychain out of the GPU die?  I see people doing it with CPUs but not GPUs

    If these are true it looks like 4GB HBM is plenty up to 4K which is the highest resolution anyone will realistically use for gaming for a while.
    Even then, HBM2 8GB will remove basically all memory limitations as it looks like 4GB HBM matches 12GB GDDR5 up to that petering off point at 5K.
     
    seems believable i guess

    this
    it would be absolutely foolish to release an entire brand new r9 300 series line on the 28nm process when nvidia already did this about 9 months ago, which was *still* pretty silly considering how old 28nm is going to be by next gen's release
     
    amd wasting all the money they don't have on new cards for the 300 lineup is a bad idea, we & amd know nobody is happy with the rebranding right now, but it's for the best.
     
    my money is on 400 series being an entire new lineup on a new node, with Zen being released etc.
     
    amd knows what they're doing.

    Well it looks like Skylake is Due Q3 2015 (Between July and September), while Broadwell will be launching soon in Q2 (at least by June). Kind of interesting that they chose to launch Broadwell in Q2 and then a quarter later launch Skylake. Not really understanding the point of that to be honest, but I believe it had to do with Intel being behind on 14nm process. The i7-5775C, is the 4C/8T 4790k equivalent while the i5-5675C is the 4C/4T 4690k equivalent both unlocked and overclockable. Then a few months later Skylake launches with the 6700k and the 6600k. The 6700k being the 4790k equivalent while the 6600k being the 4690k equivalent. Broadwell was supposed to just be a die shrink, and usually we expect 5-10% IPC performance increases from that (tick). Then here almost a few months later Skylake will launch with at least another 10-15% IPC performance increase, and is supposedly completely redesigned (tock) so we could see even higher than 15% IPC increases but I wouldn't hold your breath on that one. All in all looks like Skylake will definitely Coexist with Broadwell as stated in previous leaked rumors. But, in the end, Skylake could offer at minimum a 15% improvement over Haswell considering we can expect at least 5% IPC increase from Broadwell and then another 10% from Skylake. Now this is bare minimum increase. We could see up to 10% from Broadwell, and another 10-15% from Skylake which could bring it closer to 20-25% increase in IPC compared to Haswell which at this point means if you are running Sandy Bridge or even pre-Sandy Bridge. You are looking at a nice gain in performance from moving to Skylake.
