Let's start with the fact that the answers to the main questions Robert Hellok has not provided. He refused to talk about the features of Polaris architecture, recalling only that it should improve the performance ratio and power consumption in half compared to its predecessor, but also recognizes that this architecture, AMD refers to the generation GCN 4.0. Polaris graphics solutions will be released on 14 nm technology at GlobalFoundries facilities and will enter the market not earlier than the middle of this year.
Hellok noted that NVIDIA will produce graphics solutions 16-nm technology. Helloka was clear that AMD believes in the ability to use 14-nanometer technology a sign of superiority over competitor. By the way, Robert admitted that the canceled some time ago, transition to 20-nm process does not mean the release of discrete graphics solutions to these technological standards.
Although processor competence Helloka limited to a post in the RTG unit, he considered necessary to add that Zen architecture will not only include productive processors without integrated graphics, but also hybrid solutions.
It was evident that Hellok preparing for the issues of a dual version video card Fiji generation . Calling the product Fiji Gemini, Robert explained that the original dual graphics card was to be released in the fourth quarter 2015 - with the headset of a new generation virtual reality. Recent delayed until the second quarter 2016, AMD followed the example of the developers of these headsets.
