I don't know more about the specific details of AMD fans' Chengdu station. Because Chengdu didn't bring a camera when it rained, the photos used in this article are all from Chengdu Station activities AMD China and Sapphire Technology Officials.

The point is that I personally can make a small interview with Leo as an AMD fan. It is also the biggest achievement of this event.

I always like sapphire.jpg

Q: I am the author

L: Sapphire Product Manager leo

J: Jenny Public Relations Director Jenny

Q: Hello Leo, sapphire is a well-received graphics card manufacturer in the mainland, but the sapphire warranty and after-sales system has become a short board on the barrel. Is there any solution or plan for this sapphire?

L: Thank you, Sapphire does have a plan to extend the warranty time in the future, but because you know the reason (laugh), it is temporarily impossible to implement, and can only be implemented after the end of the warranty period of certain batches of graphics cards.

Q: I just saw the atomic (atomic) as the flagship series of AMD's highest public and the possibility of restarting at the booth?

J: You have to know that there are only 20 cards in the world and 5 cards in the mainland.

L: Sapphire as an AIB can not only consider technical, commercial decision is also very important, such as the profit range did not meet expectations or the target group is smaller than our estimate, then this series may not exist anymore.

Q: Even if AMD completely surpasses its friends in the business of independence in the future, will Sapphire not restart the atomic series?

L: It depends on the market (laugh)

Q: Will Radeon7 be out of the public?

L: No, at the moment we don't have Radeon7's non-public plan. AMD's public version of Radeon7 has already reached many of the flagship grades of the company.

Q: In the public interaction section just now, there is a series of A powder in the poison series. As far as I personally observe, many of the powders in the mainland are hoping to restart the poison series. What is the plan for this sapphire?

L: You will see poison on the next generation of graphics cards.

Q: Really (excited)

L: We have completed the work of navi poison, and it is a water-cooled version.

Q: Before the release of Vega in the previous two years, some netizens were asking if sapphire had Vega poison. The reply of sapphire would be there, but it still didn’t come out.

L: Actually, the relevant design was completed at the time, but as I said earlier, our evaluation results show that Vega poison is not profitable, and even it is difficult to return. Moreover, AMD's Vega's revenue on the super memory is higher than that of the overclocking core, leaving us with a very limited income, so we did not put Vega poison in the end.

Q: It is understandable that a company must ensure that it can make profits by legal means. So, can you disclose some information about Navi (expected)?

L: I can't tell you too much because of some reason you know. (Laughs) Navi currently has two versions, one version is priced at $499 and the other is $399.

Q: So the price of the mainland, a lot of powder is expected to be poison, they think that super platinum is a younger brother

L: At present, we have not yet determined the price of the mainland, but you know it yourself, isn't it (laugh)

Q: Then, if you are a competitor, you will use the 20 series as your main competitor.

L: Stronger than 2070

Q: What is the rumor that the Navi core of 5120sp+rt core will appear?

L: You have to know that Navi does not exist by the size of the core, there is no related product at present.

Q: So, will AMD consider hardware input into the optical chase acceleration module?

L: You can look forward to next year's new architecture.

Q: What can you tell me about the new architecture? Is it a complete replacement for the current GCN?

L: The new architecture At present, AMD is not completely finalized. You need to know that some products are not suitable for the next-generation architecture, whether it is for us or for friends (this is why both ANs have vests). Products above the thousand level have been determined to fully adopt the next generation architecture (referring to the successor of Navi)

Q: Is Navi going to be released on July 7 this year?

L Yes, you know 7nm July 7th girl (laugh)

Q: Then on May 27th, you can see AMD's next-generation processor and Navi graphics card.

L: I don't know much about CPU (after all, sapphire only does graphics cards) but the graphics card will definitely show on Computex on May 27.

Q: Will you participate in this year's Computex?

L: Of course

Q: Will the next-generation host adopt Navi's solution (nonsense)?

L: Yes, but still because you know why, I can't tell you too much, I hope to see you on Computex.
