New GPUs from AMD

That's the part that has me really nervous. I'm not a CS or anything of the sort, but that sounds like it's going to require that everything from the OS, Kernel, CPU microcode, MoBo driver, and GPU driver play nicely together... That takes a long while. We're not even to the point that I trust ThunderBolt compatibility and it's on it's 4th generation after being produced for nearly a decade - with it's only job being to play nicely with PCIe.

Depends on how it works. I think it might be similar to how you can setup a RAM drive today with unused system memory. If it's just used as a super buffer to feed the GPU then it probably isn't overly complicated. It could very well be just a very fancy on demand RAM drive.

The advantage is that AMD has full access and can build it directly into the architecture. Just like on the consoles.
