A new family of the world’s
first HBM-powered GPUs – The AMD Radeon™ R9 Fury X,
which is the world’s first HBM-powered graphics card (previously codenamed “Fiji”),
is scheduled for availability starting June 24th. The AMD Radeon R9
Fury, with both liquid- and air-cooled options, is slated for availability
starting July 14th. The deceptively small (6” in length),
category-creating AMD Radeon R9 Nano is scheduled to follow in Q3 2015. AMD
also plans to bring to market this fall a flagship Radeon Fury product for very
smooth 4K gaming and VR that is based on two “Fiji” GPUs.
