The Radeon VII is an enthusiast-class graphics card by AMD, launched on February 7th, 2019. Built on the 7 nm process, and based on the Vega 20 graphics processor, in its Vega 20 XT variant, the card supports DirectX 12. This ensures that all modern games will run on Radeon VII. The Vega 20 graphics processor is a large chip with a die area of 331 mm² and 13,230 million transistors. It features 3840 shading units, 240 texture mapping units, and 64 ROPs. AMD has paired 16 GB HBM2 memory with the Radeon VII, which are connected using a 4096-bit memory interface. The GPU is operating at a frequency of 1400 MHz, which can be boosted up to 1750 MHz, memory is running at 1000 MHz.
Being a dual-slot card, the AMD Radeon VII draws power from 2x 8-pin power connectors, with power draw rated at 295 W maximum. Display outputs include: 1x HDMI 2.0b, 3x DisplayPort 1.4a. Radeon VII is connected to the rest of the system using a PCI-Express 3.0 x16 interface. The card's dimensions are 280 mm x 125 mm x 40 mm, and it features a dual-slot cooling solution. Its price at launch was 699 US Dollars.
