Latest Linux driver release feature seven AMD Vega
A latest report on the AMD Rx Vega suggests that there are 7 SKUs featured in the AMD Linux driver code, an architecture which will be released soon. Although they are not exactly the GPUs for gamming, the speculations suggest that there could be three RX Vega cards for gaming and another three for the professionals.
Since Radeon RX Vega is expected to be released during the month of May, AMD has started to release the patches in preparation of its arrival. Earlier the gamers were keen on the release of RX Vega as it was said to share the likeness of NVIDIA' s GTX 10 series. Now 8 AMD Vega GPU IDs are uncovered in the latest Linux driver patch along with some Polaris-based devices.
Speculation arise about 7 different Vega 10-based variants which could be supported by AMD’ s Linux drivers. The gamers should also be aware of the fact that The 7 Radeon graphics may not automatically be for the gaming market. Earlier, AMD had announced that it is working on Radeon Instinct cards with Vega GPUs for use with Artificial Intelligence and the Radeon Pro cards that are obviously for professionals along with RX Vega.
The gamers expect that AMD will release one RX Vega card, one Instinct MI25, and two Radeon Pro cards this year. Also, the PC gamers look forward to the release of AMD’ s Radeon RX Vega as it offers more affordable solutions for those looking to build their hardware that delivers high-quality gaming and VR. Also, AMD is set to release its RX 400 series, revamped as RX 500 with better clock speed later in April. The new RX 500 series has been enhanced to produce better performance with less power consumption.
