AMD Radeon Vega 20 To Have XGMI (NVLink Alternative)

AMD Radeon Vega 20 To Have XGMI Based On Infinity Fabric

Previously leaked slides pointed out that the upcoming graphics cards would come with support for XGMI as well as PCIe 4.0. And now we have some new hints that point towards the same direction. A set of patches were released recently that brings support for XGMI to the AMDGPU Direct Rendering Manager driver.

AMD Radeon Vega 20 is going to replace the current generation of Vega graphics cards. AMD is going to move to the 7nm process and this means lower power consumption and higher clock speeds. AMD Radeon Vega 20 graphics cards will feature XGMI, this is an alternative to Nvidia NVLink that is based on Infinity Fabric. We have also got reports that the upcoming AMD server chips will also support this feature. The upcoming graphics cards will offer up to 20 TFLOPs of computing performance and that the die size is going to decrease by 70%. If that is indeed the case then it will be interesting to see what kind of performance these graphics cards will have to offer.
