i was under the impression the faster memory was a different sort of chip

My my. Look at that little fan. It's so cute i wanna pluck it off and use it as key holder.

11.4Gbps if awefully slow... a bit less than 1.5GB/s?? I though new GPUs are 100GB/s memory bandwidth easily? Some typo..

Wonder what the performance improvement may be, how much the system is memory-bottlenecked. And if any laptop 1060/70/80 GPUs can get a firmware update.

That's 11.4Gb/s per pin of the data bus. 11.4Gb/s x 256 = 364.8GB/s of memory bandwidth. Yes, they made a bit of a mistake by putting the effective frequency (2,850MHz x 4 because it is quad data rate) of the GDDR5X bus in a box labeled as Memory Bandwidth.
