Amd will not allocate resources to radeon rx vega crossfire support
Table of contents:
The multi-GPU support is not as good as it should be, the theory says that great performance gains can be achieved by putting two graphics cards in the same system, but then in practice many times the benefits are rather few. Companies have to spend large amounts of resources to optimize performance so it is not as profitable as it should be. AMD has communicated that Radeon RX Vega is compatible with CrossFire but that they will not allocate as many resources as in other generations.
AMD throws in the towel with the CrossFire for Vega
In this way AMD has taken an important step forward in reducing effort and resources for its CrossFire technology, in addition they do not do so in favor of other open standards such as native DirectX 12 multi-GPU support. GamersNexus that the Radeon RX Vega offer support for CrossFire but that the company is not going to allocate as many resources as it has in the past.
An important statement that implies that a Radeon RX Vega with two GPUs will not finally be launched, thus breaking a tradition of taking out in each generation a dual card with its most powerful GPU such as the R9 295X2 with Hawaii and the Radeon Pro Duo with Fiji. Perhaps some of these are launched for the professional sector within the Radeon Pro or Radeon Instinct brands.
