For those of you wondering: It's another iteration of GCN, essentially improved VEGA with some new features. It's not some ground-up new architecture. As for launch-date, it's probably 3-4 months away given AMDs history of time between submits to LLVM/Mesa/kernel and GPU releases.
AMDs referred to their GPUs as GFX[X](Y). The AMD Polaris cards like 480, 580 and 590 are GFX8 cards in all the source-code. It's not used in marketing or anything like that, it's only useful if you look at the actual drivers. If you want to know what registers NAVIs you'll be looking for GFX1010.
navi is not vega because they dropped vega and raja.

>def FeatureLdsMisalignedBug : SubtargetFeature"Some GFX10 bug with misaligned multi-dword LDS access in WGP mode" That's gold, very impressed by this >card not close to release >already working around hardware bugs in LLVMs code
>navi is not vega From what I can that's exactly what NAVI is. Look at all the checks that were changed from isGFX9 (VEGA) to isGFX9() || isGFX10() (VEGA or NAVI).
That's their next line of professional cards based on CGN / Vega, since Navi won't get a professional release right away, being a new arch. Plus Navi won't replace all CGN cards.

>It's like 300 bucks I guess it depends on what kind of laptop you need a MXM card for - but it seems like an expensive upgrade. Again, depends on the machine.

David Rogers
amd cfo basicly said their new uarch will come in 2020-21

Looking forward to it. As long as NVIDIA can't run two monitors with different refresh rates at the same time without issues, they're not getting my money.
Aiden Jackson
Is this still an issue? I do it all the time at work. We're constantly jumping around 29.97hz, 30, 59.94 and 60 in our main display and have the second at 60. Are you going above 60 as I haven't tried much there but the devices we use do sometimes auto set 120hz.
Tyler Roberts
I see people complaining about this issue regularly on forums earlier this year. Not sure about the current state of things.
Andrew Nelson
god this board is retarded

That would pretty much match up with the rumor that it's going to launch at Gamescon wich is middle/late August.
Calling user error or its more likely the screens themselves. Using the nvidia control panel it's pretty easy if a bit slow, we're even using it with custom resolutions in the past. But these days with hdmi2 most screens support TV and monitor resolutions and the control panel exposes all of them. Haven't even attempted it in the cancer that is the nvexperience software. The limit we hit is using dsr and custom resolutions at the same time. Radeon control panel is missing many good resolution options when I tried it, it hides too much.

You will enjoy em when you grow up.

Just like Vega is GCN but the SPUs are totally different? Also: >The Vega architectural whitepaper notes that Vega's next-generation geometry path can process more than 17 primitives per clock, compared to the four primitives per clock that the Vega 10 GPU can process using the traditional Direct3D rendering path. It means that Vega full potential isnt even being used due to Driver/API constrains. Maybe that's why World War Z vulkan renderer makes it beat Nvidia.

The Radeon Software have timing edits for displays.
Sebastian Watson
>As long as NVIDIA can't run two monitors with different refresh rates at the same time without issues What issues? I regularly run one screen at 24Hz and the other 2 at 60Hz. I haven't noticed any difference compared to when I had AMD.
Yeah, AMD pretty much said so when they released Radeon VII too.
Jacob Cox
Don't forget leafblower 290x
Man I loved that card. Couldn't oc 50mhz but still kicked ass
Kevin Butler
Yeah, just bought a used 1080 ti because the wait was finally too much to avoid paying the evil team. Looks like it'll last a couple years yet before AMD can compete
