We just learned that AMD will not only update the range of graphics solutions with the Polaris architecture, but also expand it down the price hierarchy, introducing the Radeon RX 550 (Polaris 12). The Chinese site BenchLife.info has more detailed information about the upcoming transformations.
Let's start with the fact that Polaris Refresh graphics solutions can be produced using the modernized 14-nm process technology, although not all sources share this opinion, primarily because the version of "14-nm LPE" on the GlobalFoundries website and in other official documents is not mentioned .
The graphic processors Polaris Refresh series will start with a two, and the names of the models from the five:
- Radeon RX 580 (Polaris 20 XTX) - the successor to Radeon RX 480 (Polaris 10);
- Radeon RX 570 (Polaris 20 XL) - the successor to Radeon RX 470 (Polaris 10);
- Radeon RX 560 (Polaris 21) - the successor to Radeon RX 460 (Polaris 11);
- Radeon RX 550 (Polaris 12).
