AMD has in its roadmap the launch of Navi, a new generation of graphics cards that will replace VEGA and that will make the leap towards 7 nanometers. While Navi is projected for launch in 2018 (and perhaps beyond) we begin to have the first details of what this new generation will mean.

GPU AMD Navi will improve Artificial Intelligence

According to the people of Fudzilla, AMD is preparing a circuitry specially designed to process artificial intelligence calculations. Nvidia has already taken a first step in this regard with its Tesla V100 GPU and AMD does not want to fall behind in what many experts are anticipating, it will be the future.

The red company already had plans to insert some AI-exclusive processing into VEGA, but there was no time to do so when development was well advanced, now the case would be different. With the launch of VEGA virtually accomplished, AMD is thinking of Navi and AI processing right on the GPU.

Navi should be a big leap in terms of performance and also in improving energy consumption compared to VEGA, thanks in large measure to the 7 nanometers. With all of the internal circuitry taking up half the size of current GPU chips, the performance per watt should be substantially better.

The first AMD Navi graphics cards are expected to arrive in the second half of 2018, if the VEGA generation doesn't stretch too far.
