New data is leaking about the next AMD Vega, specifically the three models that will come out in the first instance such as the AMD Vega Core, AMD Vega Nova and AMD Vega Eclipse.
We know that AMD will launch the AMD Vega during this quarter or at least give the complete information about it. May 31st, during Computex 2017, has been chosen to announce new information regarding the new AMD graphics cards. According to the Digiworthy medium, These Vega graphics cards would hit the market on June 5, the lowest of the range being the first to arrive. It will be at the conference scheduled for Computex 2017 when availability is announced the following week.
We must emphasize that this is a rumor, like the availability of only 16.000 AMD Vega graphics cards, which could be a reference to a model or all models, is something that we do not finish clear. The lowest graphics card will be the AMD RX Core, which will be priced at around $ 399 and will compete in price and performance with the NVIDIA GTX 1070. This price is marked by the AMD RX 580, which is priced at $ 329 and which competes with the NVIDIA GTX 1060 in price, basically, although it is possible that these RX 500 Series graphics cards see their price reduced.
It follows the AMD RX Vega Eclipse, which would be priced at $ 499 and should compete with the NVIDIA GTX 1080. The dividing line between Core and Eclipse is very thin, since they suggest that with overclocking, the Core could arrive in performance to the NVIDIA GTX 1080, this NVIDIA graphics being the competition of the Vega Eclipse. AMD would be concerned about this and would be working on a solution that would prevent Core from being more powerful than Eclipse, when Core suffers overclocking, but there is no reliable data on this. We only know that Eclipse is on a mission to outshine the NVIDIA GTX 1080.
FILTERED THE DATA OF AN AMD VEGA WITH ID 6864: 00 IN THE COMPUBENCH
Finally we have the RX Vega Nova, a graphics card that will be priced at $ 599, being $ 100 cheaper than the NVIDIA GTX 1080Ti, with which it has to compete in performance and price. Taking into account the leaks and this data, we assume that the AMD Vega dual-GPU on a PCB would arrive on the market later with the mission to compete with the Titan Xp, the most powerful graphics card from NVIDIA and this would arrive with a price above the $ 599 marked by Vega Nova, although we do not have more information about it.
We want to highlight that AMD would be developing a similar strategy for Vega as that of NVIDIA with the GTX 1080 Ti, launching in the first instance the assembler models and a month or a month and a half later the versions customized by each of the manufacturers that work with AMD. This is a growing rumor, although we do not have reliable data to confirm it.
