AMD Polaris GPUs Shipping From Foundries

[Brian]

A poster named 'iLeakStuff' on overclock forum found shipping information for the new AMD Polaris GPU based on information he obtained from Zauba. Supposedly there are 2 new GPU families with a total of 4 new GPUs based on the part numbers. The destination seems to be Hyderabad, India where AMD has an R&D facility.  Polaris is AMD's next generation high performance GPU architecture that promises to bring 2x perf/watt improvements thanks to architectural improvements and the use of 14nm FinFET technology.

AMD have begun shipping Polaris GPUs from the foundries. Based on the information from Zauba, it seems to be two different Polaris chips/families, each with 2 different SKUs/GPUs. Total of 4 new Polaris GPUs. The one with the biggest value is the full Polaris while the other one is the same Polaris GPU but with some shaders/cores disabled.


Polaris chip #1:
GPU #1: Board number: C981
This one is the full chip



GPU #2: Board number: C980.
Based on the value and the board number I would guess that this one is the same as above but have some shaders/cores disabled. Like Fury X and Fury.



Polaris chip #2:
GPU #3: Board number: C924
Full chip



GPU #4: Board number: C913
Disabled shaders/cores




Earlier GPUs:
Fury X.
Board number: C880


Fury X2.
Board number: C888


R9 200/300 series: Board number C6xx and C7xxx.

Cool, much cooler than before

Intel doesn't need chipsets at all. And CPUs. And the electronics. Do bar stooles for everyone! Morons...
