AMD readies ‘Greenland’ graphics processor

Advanced Micro Devices is working on a new graphics processing unit code-named “Greenland”, which will be released next year. The new graphics chip will replace code-named “Fiji” GPU and will be AMD’s flagship graphics solution in 2016.

Nothing particular is known about the forthcoming Radeon graphics processor, except its code-name. Fudzilla reports that the graphics processing unit will support second-generation high-bandwidth memory (HBM). It is also likely that the new GPU will support DirectX 12 tier 3 implementation, OpenGL 4.5 or better as well as Vulkan application programming interfaces. The GPU will belong to the “Arctic Islands” family of products.

At present it is unknown whether the “Greenland” GPU will be based on the GCN [graphics core next] or post-GCN architecture. Previously AMD implied that in 2016 it will offer a radically new GPU design.

Given the availability timeframe of AMD Radeon “Greenland” graphics processor, it is logical to expect that it will be made using 14nm process technology at GlobalFoundries or 16nm manufacturing technology at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co.

The code-named “Greenland” graphics processor will compete against Nvidia Corp.’s code-named “Pascal” GPUs, such as GP104 or GP100.

AMD did not comment on the news-story.

Boas!!

A mim fazem-me sempre confusão estas notícias das previsões de lançamentos, pois já sei que daqui até lá, vai ser um chorrilho de informação/discussão, sendo que muita dela não passa de pura invenção/tempo perdido. :D

Esperemos bem que a AMD consiga continuar a, de alguma forma, lançar produtos competitivos para o mercado, pois a concorrência feroz é sempre saudável para o cliente final.

É verdade que ainda não sabemos, definitivamente, o que esta geração (que está na calha para ser lançada) vai trazer, mas eu só espero que sejam boas notícias para os nossos bolsos. ;)

Cumprimentos.
 
Pois, mas não tarde nada aparecem aqui posts típicos de: "Já se sabe datas de lançamentos e preços?".
Nem vale a pena tentar perceber estas GPU's enquanto não sairem pelo menos as deste ano.
 
AMD Greenland GPU Features HBM2 ,14nm Coming in 2016 – R 400 Series Arctic Islands Graphics Architecture
HardwareLeak 2 hours ago by Khalid Moammer
AMD is reportedly preparing a new family of graphics cards for introduction in 2016 based on the Arctic Islands GPU architecture. The new graphics family will allegedly be manufactured at Globalfoundries on the 14nm FinFET process node and make use of the second generation of the stacked graphics memory spec by JEDEC dubbed HBM.
We’ve talked about the Arctic Islands architecture before. AMD has revealed that it will announce a number of its future roadmap at the Financial Analyst Day in May. So it’s possible that AMD will publicly talk about this new architecture at the event.
The Arctic Islands flagship is code named Greenland and will succeed Fiji as AMD’s most powerful GPU.
Details about the new architecture are still scarce but what Fudzilla states is that with this architecture AMD will focus on significantly improving power efficiency.

AMD Greenland New R9 400 Series Flagship Coming in 2016.
The new Greenland chip will be AMD’s first GPU to be built on the 14nm process according to the report. What’s more interesting is that it seems by 2016 Gloablfoundries will become AMD’s chief GPU supplier. A role that’s been occupied by TSMC for the past two decades. TSMC’s numerous and major setbacks with 16nm quite possibly have had a hand in this.

Nvidia too it seems is interested in Samsung’s/Globalfoundries’ 14nm process node and might even favor it over TSMC’s 16nm FinFET+ for its upcoming Pascal GPUs. We know that Samsung will be making 14nm chips for Nvidia but it’s still not clear whether those will just be the company’s low power Tegra chips or if they’ll also include large, high performance GPUs.



Apart from 14nm, the Arctic Islands R 400 series family of GPUs will also feature the second generation of HBM. And will compete with Nvidia’s upcoming family of Pascal based GPUs in 2016. AMD is already set to debut the first generation of the memory technology with the Fiji GPU that’s coming this summer. So the move towards the second generation of the memory technology will be more transitional.

Nvidia revealed that the new Pascal series will make use of the second generation of the stacked memory standard in 2016 as well. So it will be the first GPU architecture from the company to use stacked memory. Nvidia on the other hand announced no plans to use the first generation of HBM in 2015. So HBM2 is quite clearly set to completely replace GDDR5 as the standard graphics memory for both AMD and Nvidia in 2016.

AMD to Skip 20 nm, Jump Straight to 14 nm with "Arctic Islands" GPU Family

AMD's next-generation GPU family, which it plans to launch some time in 2016, codenamed "Arctic Islands," will see the company skip the 20 nanometer silicon fab process from 28 nm, and jump straight to 14 nm FinFET. Whether the company will stick with TSMC, which is seeing crippling hurdles to implement its 20 nm node for GPU vendors; or hire a new fab, remains to be seen. Intel and Samsung are currently the only fabs with 14 nm nodes that have attained production capacity. Intel is manufacturing its Core "Broadwell" CPUs, while Samsung is manufacturing its Exynos 7 (refresh) SoCs. Intel's joint-venture with Micron Technology, IMFlash, is manufacturing NAND flash chips on 14 nm.

Named after islands in the Arctic circle, and a possible hint at the low TDP of the chips, benefiting from 14 nm, "Arctic Islands" will be led by "Greenland," a large GPU that will implement the company's most advanced stream processor design, and implement HBM2 memory, which offers 57% higher memory bandwidth at just 48% the power consumption of GDDR5. Korean memory manufacturer SK Hynix is ready with its HBM2 chip designs.

Vamos ver é se a AMD mesmo com um optimo produto consegue lançar no momento oportuno.
porque vimos com a Fury que o atraso acabou por penalizar bastante.
mas especulações é que faz o mundo andar (e afundar) como a Grécia :)
