Last week, the chief engineer AMD described the changes that will bring the company's graphics solutions in the coming year: the transition to FinFET-technology manufacturing and double the improvement of energy efficiency without sacrificing performance. This year, the company's GPU shines transition to the use of memory type HBM and adaptation to the use of virtual reality technology. Note that the head of the entire balance sheet conference NVIDIA talked about that in the second half of the year will come to the market products with the support of virtual reality.
Some comments AMD chief engineer Mark Peypermaster (Mark Papermaster) with events of last week have received the attention of our colleagues from the site KitGuru: he described the next stages of evolution graphics architecture GCN. First of all, the course taken to improve energy efficiency. In addition, attention will be given to the use of computational resources GPU for creating self-learning systems and algorithms working with so-called artificial intelligence.
