AMD revealed its Radeon VII during today's CES keynote, and shortly after we met with the company to get a few more details on the hardware. As you'd expect, AMD isn't spilling the beans on everything yet, including performance, but we did get confirmation of a few specs. Here's what we know.

First, the base clockspeed for the GPU is 1450MHz, with a current target of 1750MHz for the boost clock. The 1.8GHz figure AMD showed in its slides is a 'peak clock', which may or may not be achievable on all parts. As for the TDP, AMD is going with 300W for the Radeon VII, 5W higher than the Vega 64 but basically the same. Regarding architectural changes, AMD says Vega 7nm is mostly the same as the previous Vega, with just some small tweaks. Obviously one of the biggest differences is that Vega 7nm now supports four stacks of HBM2, compared to two stacks on the previous iteration.
