AMD Project Quantum - Dual R9 Fiji HBM GPUs

2015-06-18
this video is brought to you by NCI XCOM great technology selection and service I'm really excited to be here today because I'm about to unveil these coolest the coolest most exciting that we've ever made put it in something small Andy's project quantum is an exciting direction for high-performance living room gaming that takes a step further not only for hardware but with an important element design element underlying the entire project reminding users about the potential of changing how we think about PC towers and gaming builds in general thanks to high bandwidth memory or hpm and project quantum in my opinion is one of the most unique and coolest builds of 2015 this is a proof-of-concept designed to show off the potential of their new figi hpm GPUs where the memory is actually literally stacked on top of each other on the actual die of the GPU and the quantum will feature to our 9pg GPUs packing incredible performance with up to 17 teraflops of compute performance in this relatively compact form factor thanks to the significant board size reductions meet possible with HP M you are looking at the multi-gpu powerhouse something that would not have been totally possible without HP m and for size comparison here's a fury card on top next to the r9 290x at the bottom and AMD has been able to reduce the board size up to 65% and that's what project quantum is there to really emphasize full specs of the PC are not fully revealed but it will feature an Intel i7 processor and we are told maybe a fool AMD system in there as well what we recommended for AMD is maybe a DIY route for the quantum machine where users may have the option to configure their Hardware all you just have to buy sort of this base configuration and populate your own processor your RAM and the drives but that's a little further down into the future so let's check out what makes this pcs so special well aside from housing dual are nine features in there this unique shape allows proper compartment separation while all the hardware in the bottom chamber and the cooling system in the top chamber with proper ventilation and really cool-looking design top panel so project quantum is a fully liquid cooled PC with a large square radiator in the top section unfortunately we didn't get to see inside the machine but from this internal schematic it looks really clean allowing the PC to remain completely silent and cool as the massive exhaust fan should do an adequate job with cooling what we did not see on a show floor was the external power supply as the single feejee GPU is rated at 275 Watts TDP and having the power unit outside the main machine obviously compresses the size of the chassis and I personally don't mind this solution so this has been aimed this project quantum a unique way to emphasize GPU board size reduction thanks to HP m and how it will fundamentally change the small form factor PC moving forward but what do you think of the design and make sure to subscribe because we have reviews of all the new cards that were just announced coming shortly thanks for watching and we'll see you in the next one
