According to the latest rumor, AMD might finally launch its dual-GPU Radeon Fury X2 graphics card at Game Developer Conference 2016 in San Francisco, at the special Capsaicin press event.
AMD already announced that it will hold and webcast a special Capsaicin press event at GDC 2016, hosted by Radeon Technologies Group Senior Vice President and Chief Architect Raja Koduri. Officially, AMD plans to talk about GPUs and focus on virtual reality at the press event, which could also be the perfect place to launch the Fury X2. As you already know, AMD has delayed the Fury X2 in order to wait for VR headsets.
According to the latest rumor coming from Wccftech.com, citing sources close to AMD, the press event will also include "a very special product launch."
Earlier, AMD's Roy Taylor has teased console sized systems that are rumored to be based on the dual-GPU Fury X2 graphics card and these should start shipping soon to developers as well as other partners.
The upcoming Radeon Fury X2 is said to be based on two fully-enabled 28nm Fiji GPUs and pack a total of 8192 Stream Processors, 128 ROPs and 512 TMUs as well as feature 8GB of High Bandwidth Memory (4GB per GPU). The Radeon Fury X2 will use AMD's new Crossfire technology, the XDMA, which should provide exceptional multi-GPU performance scaling.
While the Radeon Fury X2 is quite interesting we certainly hope that AMD will also reveal more details regarding the upcoming 14nm Polaris architecture during GDC 2016.
