AMD Teases PCs with Radeon Fury X2 Dual FIJI GPUs

AMD Teases PCs with Radeon Fury X2 Dual FIJI GPUs

Showtime ! AMD is starting some buzz on the web as PR managers have send out tweets indicating that they are using a dual Fiji based graphics card at the VRLA  (Virtual Reality LA) convention. Yes that means aworking Radeon Fury X2 graphics cards.

The dual Fiji card will be seated into at least a prototype Falcon Northwest Tiki compact gaming desktop as well as HTC Vive HMD. Falcon Northwest already slipped that the dual-GPU Fiji based graphics card is very tiny and easily slips into a 4-inch thick Tiki.

That means the product will be small, really small. Which makes sense due to the HBM design, I mean look at Nano. It is rumored that dual-GPU Fiji under code-name Gemini would have 8 GB HBM1 graphics memory with a whopping 8192 stream processors.



It was already mentioned that the release of the Dual Fiji XT graphics card is on target for this year likely in Q2. In fact it was caught several times now being shipped as it turned up in an India based courier service. The code-name that was spotted is "Fiji Gemini", and we need to mention here that "Gemini" has been used by AMD before to indicate a dual-GPU product. The earlier photos however indicate two 8-pin PCI Express power connectors and thus an allowance up-to 375 Watt (which honestly is not bad).

One Radeon Fury X pushes close to 8.6 TFLOPS of performance, that means a dual-GPU version of it would offer over something close to 16 TFLOPs of single precision performance. And yes a dual-GPU Fiji would have 8 GB HBM1 graphics memory with a whopping 8192 stream processors. The PCB photo below is old though, that is an early prototype / enigneering samples from last summer. We expect a change or two alright. None the less. such a card would kick massive proverbial azzz.

While I don't doubt this will be a monster of a card I can see 4gb being very limiting for these 2 gpu's

Maybe if thye use dx12 exclusive feature to allow for combined memory you get 8GB of HBM then this should make more sense. I still can't wait to see hwo this performs

Even though it sounds very promising it's a massive "what if".

Pretty cool card if it's going to be that small :D

I hate how both AMD and Nvidia are complete *******s and market these cards as having twice the amount of VRAM.
While technically correct, it doesn't apply in real life. The average Joe won't have a clue.

Yeah I'm not holding my breath for that at the moment, SFR doesn't scale exactly well. DX12 has to pull some serious magic tricks in order to change that.

Would be amazing if it would happen. I mean look, I had a GTX560 that was basically killed because of the 1GB VRAM.

Late AMD. Just focus on Polaris and release it before competition.
