AMD Project Quantum is not dead

AMD is getting ready to present second generation of Project Quantum.

This time they are going all RED with new CPU generation Zen and GPU Vega.

 

We have updated standards (DisplayPort 1.3, HDMI 2.0) that will nicely compliment all new hardware.

When the first generation came out there were no VR headsets on the market ready to show off the strength of the hardware packed in this futuristic box. So sadly the time of "Liquid VR" - sign that AMD put right on the cover - was still yet to come.

Well, situation is different now and we can hope to see some cool demo of AMD Project Quantum v2 soon. Computex 2016...anyone?!?!

 

I am very excited to watch how will this second generation perform and hope to see this concept turned into a real mass produced computer.

I am feeling very optimistic and ready to go all in on RED in 2016. :-)

That would be so freakin cool if they showed that off at computex. 

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Slick and Linus kinda talked about this before on the wan show. Everyone agrees it is stupid and doesn't work properly. Highly doubt a slightly better GPU/CPU is gonna change anything

I'm very interested in this new SFX psu standard, allowing very small itx builds. And with cases like Dan Case and NCase, it's possible to get really small and beautiful builds that packs a huge punch.

 

Project Quantum seems to be a ready to buy platform. Maybe you have to get motherboard and CPU yourself? Either way, it was a brilliant idea, and the case looked amazing with a huge radiator. Normal PC cases are just stuck in a rut, and are either grotesquely big and/or just plain boring. This could be epic.

Watching Intel have competition is like watching a headless chicken trying to get out of a mine field

Slick and Linus has rather questionable competence when it comes to technical engineering at anything beyond "average joe" level.

Quite expected to do this with new gen CPU and GPU specially. I've mentioned this way back on FB page.

But 2.0v will be dope.
