AMD Navi delayed towards October 2019?
After last weeks 7nm VEGA20 aka Radeon VII release, it is now time fo focus on the mainstream segment for AMD. And that means the next in line is NAVI. NAVI would be released this year already. However it might be later than expected.
Navi will have an updated GCN architecture and is to be released at 7nm as wellpoint. Where earlier rumors still talked about a release this summer, but it now looks to be October for NAVI. This is reported by the French new site CowCotLand
The very speculative prices and market segments of the possible cards would be these:
- RX 3080: GPU Navi 10, 8 GB GDDR6 and a TDP of 150 W. Performance comparable to RTX 2070 or GTX 1080, price $ 249.
- RX 3070: GPU Navi 12, 8 GB GDDR6 and a TDP of 120 W. Performance comparable to RTX 2060 or GTX 1070, price $ 199.
- RX 3060: GPU Navi 12, 8 GB GDDR6 and a TDP of 75 W. Performance comparable to RTX 2050 or GTX 1060, price $ 129.

I wouldn't find it overly hard to believe this, unfortunately, considering 7nm is so new and nobody else but TSMC is offering it. While the smartphone market is apparently showing some signs of losing its overheated state, it's not like it would disappear anywhere, meaning it will always eat a significant portion of the production capability. Other than that, both AMD's new CPU and GPU manufacturing will rely on TSMC, so it's not just Nvidia like in the old times. It's quite interesting we haven't heard anything about Nvidia's 7nm plans, but it could be they actively want to avoid a situation where they haven't got a reasonable stock to sell upon release, so they are taking their time. As it is, they've gone unchallenged with the 12nm process, so there's no hurry.
I'm looking forward to see what Navi could offer me, so I don't like the delay, but such things happen.

HERE the article of the French site cowcotland (google translate)
All that's stated in there is "according to our sources"... well, believe it or not, no idea if this statement is to be believed.
Exactly, I have seen that "rumor" few days ago. And saw as some sites took and reposted it as rumor, other did not even state rumor.
It is made up by them for clicks.

Not the first time it's mentioned that Navi will only be offered in the mid-end segment and not high-end.

I was thinking of buying a Vega VII card and go for a 4K monitor later, but it's available only on one shop here in Greece.
Since the asking price is 959€, I think it would be better if I kept using my 1080p Freesync 144Hz monitor and waited for Navi.
