AMD Radeon VII is no more
Cowcotland has just confirmed with their sources that AMD Radeon VII is no longer in production. The stores are selling the remaining stock and apparently, no more Radeon VII cards will be made.
With the announcement of Radeon RX 5700 series, it became clear that VII is simply not as power-efficient and cost-effective solution as Navi-based models.
When Radeon VII was released, it was obviously a 7nm "place holder" until Navi.
Meantime, based on how my RX5700XT 50th works, next year's high end gaming Navi could be a beast -- if the shader count reaches 4096 (like Vega 64).
