AMD has announced the Radeon AI Pro R9700, a model designed specifically for artificial intelligence applications. This product marks the inaugural release in the new "Radeon AI Pro" series, featuring a substitution of the prefix "R" with "W." The model number is prefixed with an "R," and distribution will be managed by board partners.
The theoretical computing power (Compute FP16) associated with the Navi 48 GPU falls short compared to the leading models of the W7000 series (Navi 31). Additionally, the W7900, equipped with 48 GB, provides 50% more memory. AMD guarantees 1,531 TFLOPS in AI applications utilizing the INT4 data format, closely matching the RX 9070 XT's performance of 1,557 TFLOPS.
AMD has unveiled its Ryzen Threadripper (Pro) 9000 at Computex 2025, a new solution for the high-end desktop (HEDT) and workstation (Pro) segments. The desktop processors have 64 cores, while the workstation processors have 96 cores. Both models offer improved performance in the familiar socket.
The processors, especially without heat spreaders, are fascinating to see under the hood. Since each of these CCDs has eight cores, the HEDT segment does not have the chips installed, leaving 32 cores missing. The 64-core processor is implemented using the remaining eight chips.
AMD has just announced their new Radeon RX 6800 graphics cards series based on the new RDNA2 architecture and starting at $579.
