During a meeting with investors AMD is not only focused on new CPUs and APUs, but also revealed some plans for the GPU. Soon corporation intends to attack the market its new series of graphics cards, and looks also to the fact that next year we expect a very large increase in performance per watt. Of course, high in the merit transition to 14 nm process technology FinFET – it is worth noting that the “Reds” do not give the value of 14 nm, but the use of this technology indicates precisely the lithographic process.
AMD expects fold increase in performance per watt over the current generation of GPU . The new technology is to focus on such key aspects as the advent of DirectX 12 API and Vulkan, users transition from Windows 7 to Windows 10 or the emergence of more affordable 4K monitors, allowing sales of graphics cards has allowed the company to return to profitability.
This does not mean, however, that AMD had not prepared anything for this year, because even in this quarter we expect on the first GPU memory technology uses a layered HBM, which offers twice the bandwidth with respect to DDR5 and requires half its energy needs.
Meanwhile, thanks to the web site Wccftech appeared render that show no model Radeon 390X but as we are not able to verify its credibility, we advise you to approach him with reserve. The eye-catcher here once a small form, which may result from the fact that the memory HBM is located directly in the housing GPU, which saves a lot of space and explains the short laminate. We can also observe four video outputs, including HDMI and one DisplayPort 3 (no DVI). What’s more, the card seems to be the dual-slot and is water-cooled, which already suggested earlier reports.
Lisa Su (CEO AMD) also announced a series of graphics cards Radeon M300 aimed at the mobile market, they are to be available to partners in the coming weeks, but not betrayed here practically any details.
