Amd radeon rx vega will arrive at the end of July
Table of contents:
AMD has confirmed during its presentation at Computex 2017 that the new graphics cards based on the AMD Radeon RX Vega architecture will arrive at the end of July, they have also shown a demo of two of these solutions working on Prey at 4K resolution along with a Threadripper processor.
AMD Radeon RX Vega
AMD Radeon RX Vega comes with a maximum configuration of 64 Compute Units which translates to 4, 096 stream processors, the same amount as Fiji so the company has focused on improving the performance of each of the shaders instead of betting on the brute force and add more quantity. The core of these cards works at a frequency of 1550 MHz, which is 500 MHz above the Fijian frequency and they are worth it to reach 13 TFLOPs of FP32 power.
How to understand the graphics card specifications
As for the memory, there are two HBM2 stacks that add up to a total of 16 GB with a bandwidth of 480 GB / s, it is striking that it is less than the 512 GB / s that the first-generation HBM memory reaches. Fiji though Vega is much more efficient with memory usage. Finally, the card has a pixel fill rate of 90 GPixels / s.
