We see the first benchmark of the new AMD Radeon Pro Vega 20 graphics card and it improves the performance of the AMD RX 70X by up to 560%.
Currently in the graphics card market there is an abyss between AMD and NVIDIA, possibly the largest in history, and that is if it was already difficult for him to keep up with Pascal, the Turing architecture (with problems included) is light years ahead of AMD . They made a risky gamble which was to bypass the high-end graphics card market and focus on trimming Intel with AMD Ryzen and it has paid off well. But AMD wants to fight again in the graphics market and for this they have developed the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 20 for laptops.
First benchmark of the AMD Radeon Pro Vega 20 for laptops.
This solution has been specially designed for high-performance laptops, being the first team to implement the Apple MacBook Pro. The problem with this GPU will be consumption and is that it is expected to have a TDP of about 200W which is an impact very negative on the autonomy of a laptop.
The characteristics of this GPU are modest and it will have 20 Compute Units, an HBM2 memory stack and this is it, since the frequencies of the GPU and the memory are not known and the TDP at the moment is an orientation.
On the first benchmark of this GPU in 3DMark 11, We see that the Radeon Pro Vega 20 starts from a 57% improvement in performance and increases up to a 72% in performance compared to the RX 560X integrated in some MacBook Pro models that can be found in the market. The general average indicates an average performance difference of 60%, which is very good, as long as it does not negatively affect the autonomy of the system.
