AMD Radeon RX Vega Announcement To Be Expected at Computex 31st May at 10
Well another year, another Computex most companies use Computex to unveil their latest products. We are also expecting to see a range of products from board partners who would be preparing custom solution as for AMD, NVIDIA, and AMD but we are also expecting to see the most anticipated products of AMD like AMD’s X399 platform and Radeon RX Vega. The company has officially confirmed that they will be presenting at Computex and will host keynote to showcase their latest technologies and products.
Now the question which comes to mind is What are these latest technologies and how soon can we know more about them?
The company (AMD) will host their Computex show on 31st May at 10 A.M. here is the official statement:
Computex 2017 is fast approaching so we wanted to share a save-the-date for the AMD press conference, scheduled for May 31st from 10 a.m. – 11 a.m. Hosted by AMD CEO, Dr. Lisa Su and other key AMD executives, you will have the opportunity to hear more about the latest products and leading-edge technologies coming from AMD in 2017. The past year has seen AMD bringing innovation and competition back to the high-performance desktop market with the release of Ryzen™ processors and we look forward to providing new details on 2017 products and the ecosystems, both OEM and channel, that will support them. via AMD
last year AMD unveiled their Polaris based Radeon RX 400 series cards. The Polaris refresh series hit the market last month so we could expect something new to be announced at the Computex. Many tech experts and bloggers are expecting it to be Radeon RX Vega Series cards without any doubt. It’s been over 2 years since the Radeon R Series was launched, now fans are desperate to see the next GPU products for gaming purpose.
Radeon RX Vega is expected to full fill their needs with faster HBM2 memory and an architecture designed from the ground up. But there’s more, AMD is also expected to make public their next HEDT platform, the X399.
AMD X399 HEDT Platform May Be Announced at Computex, Launching Alongside Intel’s X299 – Boards Already In Production
Alleged specifications of AMD X399 HEDT Ryzen processors were leaked yesterday and we got chipset block diagrams via Wccftech. The AMD’s X399 platform will have a lot of stuff in common with their Snowy Owl “Naples” chips that were reported a few hours back but they are configured for new socket not packaged in BGA as form factor also not as Snowy Owl based processors. The chips will have various configurations, we can expect anywhere from 8, 12, 16 cores which would compete directly against Intel’s X299 Skylake X series processors that will come in 6, 8, 10 and 12 core variants.
The most interesting fact is that AMD is eyeing an X399 launch window alongside Intel’s X299 so we can guess that these chips arrive as early as next month.
