AMD Navi – Radeon RX 5700 takes on Nvidia’s RTX 2070
The July release date for AMD's next-gen Navi graphics cards were true after all, or just lucky guesses. Either way the new Radeon RX 5000-series cards represent the next generation of graphics tech from the red team and a long-awaited departure from the age-old GCN architecture.
AMD officially unveiled AMD Navi over at Computex, confirming the new RX 5000-series nomenclature (in honour of the company's 50 years on this earth), and a few key details regarding performance and specs. We only know of one SKU so far, the RX 5700, but AMD is promising to tell all over at E3 on June 10 at 3pm PT during its 'Next Horizon gaming' event.
Prior to this Dr. Lisa Su, AMD’s popular CEO, announced the Q3 2019 Navi release date on a recent company earnings call, therefore narrowing it down to a launch between July and September. We now know the company plans on launching in July, the same month as Ryzen 3000, so we might see that 7/7 release date for AMD's entire 7nm lineup after all.
