It wasn’t too long ago when NVIDIA announced the release of its coveted Titan Xp GPU so it comes as no surprise that AMD already foresaw this and already planned something up its sleeves. A little over a month has passed since the release of the Titan Xp and AMD has remained relatively quiet, until today with the release of its Radeon Vega Frontier Edition GPU. The announcement couldn’t have come at a better time to compete against NVIDIA’s top of the line Pascal series like the GTX1080, 1080Ti and even the Titan Xp.
Powered by Vega architecture, the Vega Frontier Edition comes with:
- 64 next-gen compute units
- 16GB bandwidth cache
- estimated 13 teraflops of single precision processing power
Just in case you thought one GPU wouldn’t be enough, AMD also announced a liquid-cooled version of the Vega Frontier Edition, capable of tackling even the highest of processing demands while still keeping cool and remaining intact.
Much like the Titan Xp, AMD is aiming for the Vega Frontier Edition to be focused towards machine learning, advanced visualisation and revolutionising game design, which includes video editing, animation and virtual reality (VR). More details will be provided in mid-June so do stay tuned as we will be providing updates. You can also visit AMD’s website to read up more on the Radeon Vega Frontier Edition.
