AMD Radeon Pro Duo Available April 26th for 1695 euro
A Spanish website has published photos of the XFX AMD Radeon Pro Duo, XFX always has had a bit of a problem keeping NDA actually under covers, it seems. The website claims that the dual-FIJI card would get a GPU clock frequency of 1000 MHz.
AMD introduced it's Radeon Pro Duo last month but ever since has not revealed any real specifications. The base-clock would be 1000 MHz, slightly slower opposed to the Fury X at 1050 MHz. The HBM memory is running reference at 500 MHz as well. The card will get a full 8192 stream processors, 512 texture memory units and 128 rops and is sized 281x116,5x42mm.
It is based upon a 120mm radiator cooling wise. Monitor connectivity wise you can expect three Displayport 1.2 connectors and a HDMI 1.4a port. AMD initially stated a price-tag of 1499 USD, according to the new info it's going to be 1695 euro with sales starting at April 26th.
Expect a low volume release with few cards available, likely since Polaris is just around the corner and well, two Nano of Fury (X) cards might even be a more viable solution money wise. Below (clock the thumbnails) some photos of that XFX Radeon Pro Duo card.

This. I have absolutely no clue why they'd delay this release. They could have gotten decent sales by now.
And they specifically said that the card has been ready for a while now. Unless they were lying..
Right now people are waiting for Pascal/Polaris.

Yeah but the problem is, there is no rumor or evidence for a Polaris chip replacing a Fury X. And if that's the case, does it really matter if this chip is a little late? It won't be replaced until 2017 with Vega anyway.

So basically Volta and Vega are intended to be released quite soon after Pascal and Polaris?
Since you mentioned 2017.

I think this is the closest I've seen a dual GPU card being released to when the next generation is due out.
Will Nvidia respond? Probably not, for the reason that the next generation is closer than it's ever been before and the fact that the Titan Z allegedly sold so poorly. Still would've liked to have seen a dual GPU card that focussed on being an efficient air cooled two slot solution rather than just all out power.
