The public debut of the Vega 10 is expected to happen at the CES 2017. This will be a new entry for the Fury series of graphics cards.
The news comes at the heels of previous reports that the new hardware entry for AMD's Vega 10 "Fury Pro" professional graphics card uses identical technology. This shows that the upcoming Vega 10 showcase will soon get a specific launch date.
Nvidia has recently released the GTX 900 series line that includes five new GeForce graphics cards to go against AMD's Radeon R9 285, which places the company's tech division in high pressure this year. To add insult to injury, AMD's Radeon R300 series cards are just a rehashed version of the R200 series GPUs with added memory.
In order to stay in the market, AMD decided to sell the Radeon R200 series graphics cards for a discounted price. This tactic didn't help the company much because the GeForce cards of Nvidia utilizes minimal power and at the same time delivers excellent performance, which a lot of consumers have noticed.
But all hope is not lost for AMD since the company revealed specs for the Radeon R9 Fury X, which boasted to have an integrated closed-loop cooler system, a brand new Fiji graphics processor that comes equipped with 4,096 stream processors, and a high bandwidth memory that can play 4k video games and can easily match Nvidia's GTX 980 Ti and Titan X.
AMD explained that their research and development division has been working hard for seven years to bring cutting-edge high-bandwidth memory for Fury X, which made the system the very first graphics card to use HBM. Nvidia meanwhile will be countering AMD's card with its Pascal GPU, which is similar in its adoption of the new technology.
The new AMD Radeon R9 Fury Graphics Card has similarities to the company's current Fury card lineup. However, techies have a hard time concluding whether it's actually based on Vega 10 or a Fiji-based iteration. Since Vega 10's launch is growing closer, most analysts believe that the new card will not be a Fiji clone.
There's also a chance that the new AMD Radeon entry will be added to the new Dracarys board that features 1TB+ of storage along with Vega 10. The said prototype implements a Fiji GPU and it could be part of the big reveal on the upcoming November showcase.
