AMD Announces Radeon VII

Sean Hollister, for The Verge:

AMD has been lagging behind Nvidia for years in the high-end gaming graphics card race, to the point it’s primarily been pushing bang-for-the-buck cards like the RX 580 instead. But now at CES, the company says it has a GPU that’s competitive with Nvidia’s RTX 2080. It’s called the Radeon VII (“Seven”) and it uses the company’s first 7nm graphics chip, one we’d seen teased previously.

It’ll ship February 7th for $699, according to the company. That’s the same price as an standard Nvidia RTX 2080.

Can’t wait for Apple to introduce this card into their line-up in 2022, when it’s obsolete.
