The curtain comes up on AMD's Vega architecture
 

2016 will be remembered for a lot of things. For graphics cards, last year marked the long-awaited transition to next-generation process technologies. It was also the year that the graphics card arguably came into its own as a distinct platform for compute applications. Not an Nvidia presentation went by last year wherein Jen-Hsun Huang didn't tout the power of the graphics processor for self-driving cars, image recognition, machine translation, and more. The company's various Pascal GPUs set new bars for gaming performance, too, but it's clear that gaming is just one job that future graphics cards will do.
