According to a Czech outlet, AMD's Project Quantum is not dead, but is on hiatus awaiting the arrival of new AMD technologies to hit the market and deliver an extremely compact and powerful system.

What is AMD Project Quantum?

Project Quantum is a very compact high-performance system that was shown by AMD during the announcement of its Fiji GPU, however, it has never seen the light of day due to various problems with which most of us gave it up for dead. One of the surprises was discovering that the system was based on an Intel Core i7 4790K processor, which revealed the lack of competitiveness of AMD FX for high-performance gaming systems along with AMD Fiji graphics. The Project Quantum features were completed with a small ASRock Mini ITX motherboard (Z97 Mini-ITX) and Crucial memories.

Project Quantum awaits new AMD CPUs and GPUs

Project Quantum never entered the mass production phase, so practically everyone considered it dead. However, the project could still be alive and would only be waiting for the availability of the best possible technology to come to light.

A new possibility is that Project Quantum is waiting for the arrival of Zen and Vega to be reborn, this time with 100% AMD hardware and with much greater benefits than the initial prototype. AMD would take advantage of its new high-performance Zen-based processors to provide Quantum with the CPU power necessary to fully handle the power available in its most powerful graphics cards, based on the Vega architecture and HBM2 memory.

We will still have to wait to see if it finally gets to see the light or everything remains in a mere prototype.
