Amd prepares the radeon r9 295x with the fully unlocked hawaii chip

Anonim

It has long been rumored that the Hawaii XT chip used in the Radeon R9 290X does not have all of its units unlocked and that AMD could launch a new graphics card with the Hawaii chip fully unlocked.

Finally AMD will launch the new Radeon R9 295X graphics card with the completely unlocked Hawaii chip, that is, it will have its 48 CU enabled, adding a whopping 3072 Shader Processors, 192 TMUs and 64 ROPs. Its arrival will take place before the end of the year.

Let's hope that this time AMD is more successful with the reference heatsink that it incorporates into its new card and the well-known overheating problems experienced by the R9 290 and R9 290X in its reference design are not repeated due to the low efficiency of the heatsink used. Perhaps the new card arrives with a hybrid cooling system in its reference model. Do you remember the case that leaked a few months ago by Asetek?
