Amd polaris 10 as fast as the gtx 980ti
Table of contents:
At a conference in Taiwan for the announcement of the Radeon Pro Duo, AMD discussed its upcoming Polaris and Vega graphics architectures. These two new architectures play in different leagues so that Polaris will cover up to the mid-range and Vega will be the one to succeed the high-end cards based in Fiji.
AMD Polaris on par with GTX 980Ti performance
Thus we find that Polaris 10 "Ellesmere" corresponds to the Radeon R9 490 (X) and will be the largest chip based on this promising architecture. This chip belongs to the mid-range so it is not Fiji's successor, an honor that is reserved for the arrival of Vega in early 2017.
With this it is quite clear that the AMD Ellesmere silicon will be the natural rival of the Nvidia GP104 that supposedly will give life to the GeForce GTX 1080. The rumors suggest that the Radeon R9 490 (X) would come with an approximate price of $ 300 and with performance equal to or slightly better than the GTX 980Ti.
Ellesmere's purported specs include a total of 2, 304 active stream processors, a 256-bit GDDR5X memory interface, and a 200W TDP.
