Will use Vega GPU in future

While it did only reveal a retail name for its upcoming Vega-based graphics cards, AMD also revealed a key partnership with LiquidSky, a cloud-based game-streaming service provider that will use that same Vega GPU for game streaming.

According that what we heard from AMD and LiquidSky during the "Capsaicin and Cream" event at the GDC 2017 show and the press release that came shortly after, LiquidSky aims to use the AMD Vega GPUs in order to effectively share the resources of one GPU with multiple virtual machines by using AMD's Radeon Virtual Encode, which is a unique feature of the Vega GPU.

“LiquidSky’s game streaming service delivers the very best visuals, detail, and pure performance, regardless of the device you’re using,” said Ian McLoughlin, LiquidSky’s co-founder and CEO. “AMD’s Vega-based GPUs will have the perfect blend of bleeding-edge hardware virtualization features and tremendous rendering horsepower. This means consistent framerates and quality of service that’s simply not possible with existing technologies.”
