Amd is working on the rx 600 cards, they would come out before navi

With the departure of Raja Koduri as the head of Radeon Technologies and the hiring of David Wang and Mike Rayfield by AMD to replace him, it appears that there have been changes to the roadmap. According to the latest information, the RTG division (Radeon Technologies Group) is working on the RX 600 series, which would come out before NAVI graphics cards, next year.

Radeon RX 600 series could come out this year

The latest speculation about NAVI, told us that its launch was scheduled for 2019 and that it had a similar performance to a GTX 1080 for a price of $ 250. Well AMD is looking to launch an RX 600 series before that happens.

The project for these new GPUs is called Zen, and it seeks to improve the performance of the current RX 500 and 500X series. The new team has been created to add a new series of graphics cards that was not foreseen in the roadmap known to all.

The two key areas the team focuses on are significantly improving the clock speeds of AMD's GPU designs and increasing their energy efficiency.

In accordance with the roadmap, AMD is working on NAVI, an architecture that will be the last of the GCN era. Starting in 2020, the Sunnyvale company is also working on what will be the post-GCN era, which will change substantially all of the engineering we now know about Polaris and VEGA.

When would we see this RX 600 series? It could be in late 2018 or early 2019.
