AMD Radeon VII, the new gaming graphics cards that will arrive on February 7 for $ 699 # CES2019
Introduced the AMD Radeon VII, the new gaming graphics cards, being the first based on 7nm and that will arrive for $ 699 on February 7.
AMD's Keynote is still taking place at CES 2019. This event is especially important because the company has revealed its new graphics cards. AMD Radeon VII are the first gaming graphics based on 7nm lithography. This graphics card is a real beast developed for gaming at 4K @ 60FPS and that wants to compete with the NVIDIA GeForce RTX.
New 4K @ 60FPS gaming graphics
The most important thing is that it is the first GPU on the market for gaming based on 7nm lithography. This graphics card is accompanied by 60 Compute Units at unknown frequencies. According to AMD, these Radeon VIIs offer up to 25% more performance than the Radeon RX Vega 64. They will have 16GB of VRAM memory, most likely HBM2, although it has not been specified. It will be HBM because the data bus is 1TB/sec and GDDR6 cannot reach that.
According to the benchmarks shown by the company, this new graph offers up to 62% more performance in OpenCL than the RX Vega 64. The Battlefield V will give 32% more performance than in the RX Vega 64 and in Fortnite up to 25% more more performance than the RX Vega 64. Strange Brigade offers up to 42% more performance in Vulcan than the Vega 64.
We have been surprised that in live gaming in Devil May Cry at 4K resolution it ranges between 90FPS and 120FPS with a drop to 70FPS. Something really spectacular.
Regarding consumption, no data has been given in this regard, but it should improve a lot with respect to the RX Vega 64. The most interesting data is that they will hit the market on February 7 and will be priced at $ 699. Quite more expensive than expected, this is because it used HBM2 memories.
