In the summer of this year, AMD will delight their fans and their ideological opponents with the release of two more graphics solutions based on the latest processor Fiji with integrated memory such as HBM. First of all, after a week and a half will be released a product called Radeon R9 Fury without the letters "X" in the title, which is limited to air cooling system that AMD partners will be able to design on their own.
Radeon R9 Fury retain only 3584 of the 4096 stream processors available in Radeon R9 Fury X, but the amount of memory and clock speeds remain the same - 4 GB of HBM, and 1050/500 MHz, respectively. Recall that the Radeon R9 Fury will be presented on July 14 and will go on sale for $ 549, and, AMD partners are already preparing their own versions of this card. Air cooling system will keep the GPU temperature Fiji within 75 degrees Celsius, while the liquid cooling system Cooler Master case with Radeon R9 Fury X allows the graphics processor in most types of loads to heat above 50 degrees Celsius.
The site AnandTech, meanwhile, as part of its review of the fresh Radeon R9 Fury X builds predictions on the characteristics of video card Radeon R9 Nano , which is partially told in more formal presentations on the opening of the first graphics solutions. It is known that the Radeon R9 Nano will be satisfied with a cooling system with a single fan, the length of the video card does not exceed 150 mm, power consumption does not exceed 175 watts, and to the power supply, it will be connected by a single connector with 8 pins.
Our American colleagues say that they intend to appear before the end of summer , Radeon R9 Nano card will keep the number of functional GPU units , the same characteristics as Radeon R9 Fury X, but clock speeds will have to sacrifice, because the need to reduce power consumption to 175 watts. Memory capacity and bus width remain intact because HBM chip integrated on the same substrate with the GPU Fiji.
