Photos presumably show AMD RX 570 and RX 580

Photos have surfaced online that presumably show AMD’s Radeon RX 570 and RX 580. Just like their predecessors, the new video cards have a Polaris GPU. That corresponds with previous rumors, which state that there will be a refresh with slightly higher clock speeds.

VideoCardz shows pictures of two video cards and a screenshot of GPU-Z. One of the cards has a PCB with the same layout as the RX 480 and RX 470 cards, with a six-pin power connector. This would be the RX 570 video card. The other card has an eight-pin power supply. This is presumably the RX 580 and by supplying it with more power than the RX 480, the clock speed could be increased. The card was produced on March 3rd, has plate number C940 and a new design. The inscription also confirms that the video card uses a Polaris GPU.

The photos are accompanied by a GPU-Z screenshot showing the specs of the RX 570. These match what was mentioned in previous rumours. The card would have 2048 stream processors, 128 tmu’s and 32 rop’s. The card has 4GB of RAM, but there would also be variants with 8GB. The memory speed has not changed with 1750MHz.

Earlier rumors spoke of the RX 500 cards having Polaris GPUs that are baked on an improved process. That would allow slightly higher clock speeds, while the video cards are otherwise equal to the RX 400 models. There would be one new GPU, the RX 550, an entry-level model with 640 steam processors.

AMD previously announced that its new high-end video cards with Vega GPU will not end up in the RX 500 series. These models will be called RX Vega. Concrete details about those video cards are not yet known, but AMD has said that they will be released in the second quarter of this year.

According to VideoCardz, AMD will announce the RX 500 series on April 18. Around the same date, the GeForce GTX 1080 and 1060 with faster memory should be released. Details of those cards already appeared on Wednesday.
