Navi 31 mGPU rumour

[J7SC_Orion]

...more and denser rumours about AMD's upcoming Navi31, including in mGPU form (2 chiplets) with the top GPU offerings, with up to 160 CUs /10240 cores...ladies & gentlemen, start your F5 key and order more PSUs, or is it going to be 'out-of-stock, out-of-stock' déjà vu all over again ?

 

As with any rumour, don't forget the salt shaker

The first two sentences reference rhumours (that's my brit joke). I wonder what this move away from 'Radeon' will do? I feel like this could be a big leap in performance. It could be seen as unwise to do a typical 10-15% performance bump and change the name so much. Radeon is known. It has been since ATI existed, at least so long as I remember them. People might misunderstand and not realize these are the big boys. Heck, if you ask me AMD Radeon is still a baby compared to ATI Radeon. But, maybe I'm thinking too much into it. But I feel this will be a substantial leap in performance, giving the opportunity for the product line name change.

...well, NVidia finally went from 'GTX' to 'RTX' for a variety of reasons, so may be AMD feels like changing the name, or at least part of the nomenclature, is a good thing. On the other hand, they may keep the 'Radeon' name for entry-level to mid-level GPUs and go 'upmarket ($)' with a new label, sort of like Toyota and Lexus. One thing is for sure, counting out all those bills for your next-gen GPU could give you  'rhemourse'...

It will be exciting to see what AMD can bring to the table with a chiplet GPU design. If it is anything like Ryzen, they may have something. The only problem is actually getting one, right now I would settle for a new GPU of any kind haha.
