AMD Radeon Fiji XT Spotted in Shipping

Way back when the Maxwell rumors were circulating, around 5 months ago, Nvidia's GM204 was spotted in shipping data. Well, the same has happened again, this time with AMD's Fiji XT. While not very big or interesting news, it is more confirmation that the new R9 300 series cards are on their way. Even though... They were already confirmed... Just don't think about it.

Want to see the data for yourself? Head on over to Zauba (a database of import and export data) and run a search for "Fiji XT" in the Product Description search bar and make sure "Import" is selected in the drop-down menu. If you can't be bothered, here's what the data looks like:

Source. Is Videocardz a decent source? I don't know. Is Zauba? I don't know.

This is my first post here, so let me know if I did anything wrong :)

Cool news for the first post, Video cardz is a questionable source almost as same as wccf but the source seems real to me...

 

Keep up the good posts  B)

Details separate people.

You did EVERYTHING WRONG! I can't believe you posted such trash!

Just kidding! :P:D :lol:

You did great mate! :);)

Imagine what would happen if the shipping company makes a mistake and sends it to one of our fellow forum members...

Its not a crate of gpus, its just one worth $1000.

I would love to see something really kick ass from AMD.

 

Honestly I doubt it, but if AMD could pull something out of their ass then that would be spectacular.

 

If not then I guess I'll be picking up a 970.

He did gr8 for a m8, and we should r8 8/8.

Did you just think that up? :D

I find it amusing how Nvidia's GM204 isn't really THAT far ahead of AMD's (older) Hawaii GPU's, in terms of pure [gaming] performance, and yet people don't think AMD can surpass GM204 with their next high-end chips... :rolleyes:

 

These two companies have been leaf-frogging each other for the "top spot" for years. And it's not going to stop any time soon. ;)

Power and heat are the things that hold back performance on new tech. If GTX 980 is this fast with a 165 Watt TDP, how fast could Maxwell be last generation's 250 Watt TDPs?

 

That being said, you are correct. Nvidia shot first, so AMD knows what they need to hit. If AMD's new product isn't at least as compelling, they will probably wait until it is.

I'm betting on a February release alongside a public Mantle SDK release and a GTA V bundle. Who's taking bets ?

I'll bet you a 390x that AMD will still get "oven" and "space heater" jokes.

To be honest, I don't think we will see 250w TDP high-end GPUs moving forward from here. We will probably see some higher than 165w, but not by much. I think we'll be seeing more of this trend of better performance per watt (from both AMD and Nvidia) and less significant pure performance gains over previous generations. With the shrinking manufacturing nodes, they'll be able to cram more cores within the same die footprint, while keeping TDP lower and increasing performance at the same time.

 

I get what you're saying but I don't think it's quite that simple.

So true.

 

Many people overlook the fact that 290/X's with proper 3rd party coolers run at very similar temps to the 780/Ti's of that generation.

 

It was mainly only the reference coolers that ran like hair-dryers.

Also the total power draw is not that much higher on Hawaii compared to full GK110 (<50w), but that is rarely talked about. Those reference coolers and the "late" arrival of 3rd party solutions did not do that chip justice.

Well winter is cettainly coming.

I have a 290x from Powercolor.

http://media.bestofmicro.com/J/B/418007/original/powercolor_pcs-r9-290x.jpg,

So I'm not about to need one, but I have to say I feel the coming AMD cars will be worth their while.

I'm waiting till the 490x to upgrade. Second gen HBM and 16nm will make those a doozy.

Ya it's actually pretty amazing how AMD and Nvidia have remained neck and neck for so many years.

 

Even when one of them gets ahead it's only by a small margin, and rarely across all the benchmarks.

 

It's one of the reasons why graphics has continued to evolve so fast... long may that competition continue.

You missed the big picture. Nvidia passed AMD's performance using a 256-bit bus vs. AMD's 512-bit, and with 700 fewer cores. We all know GM 200 and 210 are coming on 20nm or 16nm FinFET too. AMD has been curb-stomped architecturally. To deny this is to admit you haven't a clue about how to read the facts in front of you.

Too bad that HBM advantage disappears since Nvidia is putting it on Pascal.
