Radeon Pro Duo
AMD lancerer deres første grafikkort i Radeon Pro serien. Det nye kort har masser af kraft og kan udkonkurrere GTX Titan X (sli) i test. Som navnet antyder, er der to GPU's og der er arbejdet intenst på at mindske latency og optimere VR ydelsen. Er du hooked på VR, så kan dette kort følge med et godt stykke tid ud i fremtiden. Alt dette kommer selvfølgelig ikke dumpende ned fra hilmen til spotpris, næ nej du skal smadre sønnikes sparegris og inddrage konens husholdningspenge et par måneder frem i tiden, da prissedlen lyder på ikke mindre end USD$ 1499,- (ca. kr. 9900)
Der er selvfølgelig kommet en pressemeddelelse og nogle lækre billeder fra AMD. Læs herunder hvad de selv skriver (på engelsk).
