The Radeon RX 500 Series will launch April 18th, next Tuesday. That date is so sure because PowerColor confirmed it on their social media facebook pages while teasing their new Red Devil graphics card. AMD will be rehashing some of the 400 series graphics cards into the RX 500 series.

Radeon RX 580 and RX 570 will be receiving new code-names for their GPUs. The RX Radeon 580 will feature the Polaris 20 XTX and Radeon RX 570 will be fitted with the Polaris 20 XL. The 550 however does show up and will get a Polaris 12 processor for code-name.

Whilst it's good news on this front, the Polaris refresh. I really would like some news on Vega.

That thin hope of news is also what sucked me in here too !

We've been chatting about the upcoming Radeon RX 550, 570 and 580 graphics cards for a while now. the one thing that never solidified however is the actuality release date. That myth is now debunked ...

Can we expect a review HH? What possible cards might you have ready for review?

Vega is still some weeks off I think.

According to the internet, it's slightly faster but not 1070 fast...

Before is probably impossible (NDA), after is for sure.
