Navi brings CU/SIMD changes, judging by the recent patents.
The "features" from latest patents are literally fundamental CU-level changes.Operand reuse cache and the addition of side ALU is not a minor change.It's not even iterative.
It's going back to designs so ALU-heavy they can bruteforce through everything.Though meaningful geometry setup changes are coming in Navi iirc.
