AMD Navi 23 ‘NVIDIA Killer’ GPU Rumored to Support Hardware Ray Tracing, Coming Next Year

[danlightbulb]

There is no specific reason for AMD to make people go to a specific game to get further information about their upcoming GPUs

Yeah it feels like theyve just watched Ready Player One and took tips from it.

Little Jay is getting torn apart in some of the twitter comments.

One of them is mine

Not sure about that, it looks barely wider than the bracket to me. Maybe a little taller though.

The plastic/metal shroud extends past the 2 slots:

Not a massive amount, but no way that would fit in a strictly 2 slot environment, if you had other cards in the next PCIE slot.

My Radeon VII is strictly a 2 slot card, you could fit two of them next to each other etc.

I think all the rumours on Youtube and Twitter about Navi 21/Navi 22 are inaccurate. AMD don't want the info leaked, it's not in their interests.

They were inaccurate for Navi / RDNA gen 1, and most of the generations before it.

I think AMD would need to announce what clock speeds are planned for RDNA 2 GPUs, to give us an accurate idea of performance.

It seems impossible to calculate otherwise, we won't know the TFlop count, pixel rate or texture rate without this information.

???

Clock speed won't tell you it's performance. It's a new architecture, which will have different IPC. We need to wait for reviews to confirm it's actual performance, same for Nvidia's cards.

whoever took that screenshot needs a new graphics card, thats awful!

Buildzoid thinks the revealed card uses HBM2:

Have you noticed the reflections in the backplate?? AMD supporting RT in Fortnite too??

It would give you a much more accurate idea. You can't work out the overall performance without the clock speed. There's not much reason to think IPC will increase drastically from the last gen, they are still using TSMC's 7nm process.

Many rumour mills have speculated on performance, but haven't given sufficient details on the specs to back it up.

Damn fine looking card there AMD.

And JayZTwoCent's utterly petulant reply made me chuckle, Just further illustrates the utterly retarded and hypocritical foundation to mindshare. Minecraft of all things is a headline RT implementation and RTX tech coming to Fortnight was a big sing song in the Ampere announcement, and these are apparently fine. Yet AMD drops their new RX cooler into Fortnight and it's childish and pathetic because only teenagers play Fortnight.

Jog the **** on...

It's baffling to me that JayzTwoBraincells has the following he does. I can at least see why other people might like some tech Youtubers, even if I don't. He offers nothing.

Cooler looks nice though. Hope the GPU underneath lives up to the hype.

 

[LePhuronn]

but if AMD can challenge the 3080... and dare I say it.. surpass it... then wow...

I'm genuinely surprised you think this is some kind of Herculean feat, it's really not.

 

[FoxEye]

AMD in marketing gimmick/fail shocker. It's always amateur hour.

 

[Rroff]

You'd better hope AMD beat the 3080 convincingly now then

Never seen the attraction myself - but sadly it is the kind of "entertainment" that is in vogue at the moment. The only tech channels I really watch(ed) are Gamers Nexus and occasionally LTT and some of the GN rants lately have put me off a bit.

Well if they're even going to get back in the race, now would be a good time. They're running out of excuses

Additionally working with MS and Sony should have been a positive thing for Radeon development.

I love the 30 seconds silence after pointing at the Radeon logo blocking airflow on the Radeon VII..........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................Its Dumb!

I don't know why but that tickled me, i'm amused by silly crap....... its my childish sense of humour.

That's one pretty GPU

Btw i dunno if anyone's noticed but the hs fins on the edge seem to be angled and its not all one direction. I think they change direction in the middle of the radeon sign bit.

I wouldn't be surprised if AMD release something every day now in the lead up to the 3080 release to try and overshadow it. Something unexpected would be nice, just to see if they can break the internet

Really liking that cooler design. The AIBs are going to have to step it up a bit as I'd buy that, first time I've said that about a non-AIB AMD GPU.

What are the two connectors in that fortnite video they look like fan headers but with nothing in em

A single game benchmark of an unnamed Navi card every week up until the 28th of October starting on the 16th.

It would create a glorious *********.

I'm just going off of AMD's last couple of years in the GPU game where they didn't come close to the 1080ti or 2080ti within a respectable time.
