AMD once again teases "VR Ready" PCs

Up to nine times faster than Xbox One

AMD has once again teased what it calls the VR Ready PCs, a console sized DirectX 12 and VR capable PC systems.

While the tweet from AMD's Roy Taylor does not give out many details, other than shows a bunch of red painted AMD Radeon Technologies Group PC systems sitting on shelf, it appears that these are Tiki PC systems from Falcon North West that we have seen earlier and that were used to as a demonstration of AMD's upcoming dual-GPU Fiji-based graphics card that should provide 12 TFLOPs of performance.

According to Roy Taylor's post, these systems should be going to developers and are aimed to provide the best possible VR and DirectX 12 experience packed in a rather small PC case.

Earlier, Roy Taylor noted that such system is actually up to seven times faster than Playstation 4 and up to nine times faster than Xbox One.

AMD has already delayed its dual-GPU Fiji-based flagship graphics card to late Q1 and then early Q2 in order wait for VR headsets to launch. Unfortunately, we still do not have a precise launch date so hopefully we will hear more about the new Radeon R9 Fury X2 dual-GPU graphics card soon.
