Official announcements of new video cards of the NVIDIA and AMD companies fixed the fact that competitors decided not to meet, and to play separately: NVIDIA Pascal in a high segment of decisions, and AMD Polaris — in average category of video cards. "Small party" is postponed at least until an output of the video cards AMD on architecture of Vega that can occur sooner or later. At least, because in AMD hose (as well as NVIDIA) remains a trump ace in the form of the accelerating potential of 14-nanometers and 16-nanometer technical processes. The AMD company regularly emphasized that new architecture of Polaris twice energoeffektivny previous. And if it is very good to GPU Polaris 10 to disperse, then it isn't clear yet who will appear quicker: the dispersed AMD Radeon RX 480 or the operating normally NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070, and even GeForce GTX 1080.
The fresh publication on the website Chip Hell forced to speak about the superaccelerating potential of GPU Polaris 10 (AMD Radeon RX 480). The source placed two photos allegedly of the video card MSI Radeon RX 480 Lightning. The MSI Lightning cooling system represented on the picture with three fans and color design of a casing is externally identical to the solutions of MSI which already got on the market. For example, the same casing and a set of fans at the MSI Radeon R9 290X Lightning adapter. But there are essential differences. The second photo "MSI Radeon RX 480 Lightning" shows two connectors of an external power supply: one standard 6-pin and one additional 8-pin. At the video card MSI Radeon R9 290X Lightning other set of connectors of an external power supply.
If in the photo the video card MSI Radeon RX 480 Lightning with the offered power connectors is really figured, then the declared TDP level for Radeon RX 480 in 150 W potentially can be raised to 300 W by means of acceleration. The MSI Lightning system as in the photo will quite cope with such level of heat extraction. Certainly, the MSI company should make the board for the video card and the distributing, including gain of a subsystem of a supply. Also the video card MSI Radeon RX 480 Lightning shall be longer than the reference adapter, otherwise the cooling system idle will appear out of limits of a short board of a reference sample. There is a lot of questions to the provided photos, it will be interesting to learn responses.
