The recent update of graphics drivers for Linux, according to the revelations of the discussion participants at Reddit , brought additional information about the configuration of graphics solutions of the Vega family. At least, our foreign colleagues interpreted the available data as follows: the novelty will receive 4096 stream processors, 256 texture sampling blocks, 64 rasterization units, and can simultaneously process up to 8 streams. The older video card with the symbol Vega 10 will be equipped
with 8 GB of HBM2 memory with a 2048-bit bus.
In general, if we rely on the description of Fiji (Radeon R9 Fury X) graphics solution with HBM memory in Linux drivers, it is very similar to Vega 10. At least in terms of the configuration of the functional units of the GPU. In addition, this driver update allows you to make sure that the AMD Raven Ridge hybrid processors, which will be released by the end of this year, will receive a graphics system of the Vega generation. Most likely, it is for this reason that their debut is postponed to late
autumn. Discrete graphic products with Vega architecture should appear before the end of the current quarter. The emergence of their support in Linux drivers only proves the proximity of the announcement. Related Products :
