So far, among the generation of graphics solutions from AMD Arctic Islands, which will be released no earlier than next year, it is often referred to as Greenland. It is expected that elements used in its creation, will get a hybrid architecture processors - including the server computing accelerators.
Website KitGuru citing its own knowledgeable sources reported that the family will have three Arctic Islands GPUs with the new architecture: Greenland, Baffin and Ellesmere. All of them received their symbols in honor of the islands in the northern hemisphere. Greenland will become the new flagship of the brand, it is attributed to the presence of the next-generation architectures GCN and support memory type HBM2. In the consumer segment video-card based on Greenland can offer up to 16 GB of HBM2 memory type .
Samples of Greenland, most likely, will soon be made available to AMD, and the graphics processor will be released on 14 nm technology using FinFET. Greenland development company engaged in more than two years. And only about a year ago started development of graphic processors Baffin and Ellesmere, suggesting their later release to the market. In any case, before 2016, they will not appear.
