| After Navi 7nm comes Next gen 7nm+ What Taiwan native David Wang - VP of AMD's Radeon Technologies Group - wanted to share the world at Computex is that Vega 14nm was a new architecture while Vega 7nm is a die shrink. Just think of it like Intel’s tick–tock cycle that got broken at 14nm a few years back. Navi 7nm is a new architecture but what David didn’t share with the Computex 2018 audience is that Navi is not a high end part. Navi is a replacement for Radeon RX 500 series, naturally much faster than the Polaris generation. These GCN 4 cores were manufactured in 14nm. David claims that AMD is making great progress on a new Navi 7nm generation that to Fudzilla's knowledge should launch at some point in 2019. It is too early to say when, but knowing that AMD keeps its schedules just slightly better than Elon Musk’s Tesla, we would not hold our breath for it. Vega 14nm was delayed by close to two quarters and AMD hasn’t launched anything since. AMD also kicked of the next generation, leveraging the new process that AMD now calls 7nm+. This is nice way of saying this might actually be better than 7nm, but we are not sure how GlobalFoundries and TSMC plan to call the new manufacturing process in 2020. https://fudzilla.com/news/graphics/4...s-next-gen-7nm |
