Yes or no? If it is a good price, then I would say yes please …
Amidst breaking news about PowerColor designing what could be the first custom-design Radeon VII graphics card, the company also unveiled its reference-design Radeon VII card, the AXVII 16GBHBM2-3DH. This card sticks to AMD’s reference design clock speeds of up to 1750 MHz boost, and up to 1800 MHz “peak” clock speeds, with the memory ticking at 1000 MHz. It implements the slick, solid-aluminium triple-fan stock cooling solution AMD designed for this card.
Drawing power from a pair of 8-pin PCIe power connectors, the card puts out three DisplayPort 1.4 and an HDMI 2.0b. Based on the 7 nm “Vega 20” silicon, the Radeon VII packs 3,840 stream processors, 240 TMUs, 64 ROPs, and a 4096-bit wide HBM2 memory interface, holding 16 GB of memory. It’s likely that PowerColor will sell this card close to AMD’s MSRP for this card, USD $699.
Update (30/01): A PowerColor representative on Reddit stated that the company is not planning to launch any custom-design Radeon VII in the immediate future. “We did clarify to the media, that at this moment we will only carry AMD reference design and at the moment we do not have custom model planned in the immediate future,” they said. PowerColor didn’t completely shut off the possibility of a “Red Devil” branded Radeon VII. “Obviously there’s quite of you guys out there wanting our Red Devil series on the Vega VII and we will always consider the option. Just not at this point,” the statement read.
