AMD Arcturus Could Be The Codename Succeeding Navi?
There is always something new in technology land, in that respect, it certainly does not disappoint. While the Navi is still a lightyear away, the successor to it might be Arcturus. Arcturus is a large red star and the brightest of the constellation of Boötes.
The news reaches us through Phoronix who discovered the Arcturus name today in their forums as an AMD Linux liaison might have slipped something, he should not have. A reader asked him about the numbers involved in modern AMD GPU codenames like Vega 10, 11, and 20 and a preference for going back to GPU codenames like the days of Northern and Southern Islands. He does mention it as a 'could be'.
"We are going back to real codenames where possible (ie where it's not already too late to change), and trying to keep the old "the name vaguely suggests HW generation so it will be easier to remember in the future" model. The first new codename should be Arcturus."

no there will be hype 5 year before release, so not so far away
Each time i ear the word "navi" i think about Zelda: "hey" "hey, watch out" floating around you.
So... 2045 or 2046?

The slides say on track, and have a huge gap. So, Navi could land somewhere between 2019 and 2020.
Lisa Su made changes to RTG, they can't afford to have 4 to 5 years gap between products or they'll be irrelevant.

That's where Nvidia made a mistake: They didn't hype Turing for a few years, and without saving money for years, nobody can afford them.

I want AMD to get back to it badly, but I just don't see how, please, prove me wrong and surprise your competitors with an energy efficient product.

That picture's actually sad, doesn't it mean that the Pulsar (?) there is sucking matter from the red giant?

As soon as NASA gets there and brings back samples.
As long as you are not working for AMD, it is fine to have no clue.

It will probably be late 2019/2020 before we are able to get our hands on Navi. Still with the way Nvidia is pricing themselves, that is not such a painful wait.
