AMD has announced that their first Vega-based GPUs will ship in Q2 2017, hinting at a launch window between May and June. This will no doubt disappoint those that hoped for an earlier launch for Vega
This is to late and is going to hurt AMD, unless it is blisteringly quick.
They have had the Ti ready for a long time. They are just waiting for Vega to launch. The pascal refresh isn't anything new, so it doesn't hurt to keep it waiting. They have till there next gen GPUs. They have nothing but time.
AMD might as well take advantage to maximize sales for both parts and create very high volumes for launch day.
Im not talking about the refresh I have a sneaky suspicion they have something else up their sleeve so that if Vega is really good they can trump it with something else
No not the 1080ti I think they have something else ready just in case and if the card from AMD aint that great then yes it will in all likely hood be the ti
TBH I hope this new card scares the SH** out of Nvidia as they need a wakeup call IMHO
So what does that mean for the 490, i saw rumors that the 490 was going tobe a dual gpu card varient of the 480, now as thats a rumor its probably fubar, but if vega isnt going tobe a 490 then whats going on ?
It might be a 5xx series?
