AMD recently launched its second generation Vega based Radeon VII graphics card that utilizes the brand new 7nm process and aims the high-end enthusiast market. Now the card delivers upon the promise of competing against NVIDIA’s GeForce RTX 2080 graphics card but at the end of the day, AMD’s Radeon VII feels more like a technology showcase, given its limited quantities and high price which were seen at launch. There’s also the fact that Radeon VII still utilizes the Vega architecture with little enhancements so eyes are on Navi, AMD’s next greatest leap in their Radeon roadmap.
AMD Navi GPUs have been talked as the next big thing coming out from RTG and is likely the last GPU generation to feature GCN architecture as its DNA. With Navi, AMD is going to focus on brand new design changes to the architecture that would help boost its efficiency and performance. For comparison, Radeon VII utilizes the 7nm architecture but it is essentially a die shrunk of an existing architecture. The Navi GPUs will be designed around 7nm from the start and that would definitely help AMD take full advantage of the 7nm process node.
