Custom NAVI Radeon RX 5700 (XT) graphics cards are getting closer and closer. There will be many brands and models. of course we've seen a thing or two from MSI, however, photos of the RX 5700 XT EV... MSI Teases Radeon RX 5700 XT EVOKE Graphics Card
They should have taken the photos in nice sunlight if they wanted to make it look golden. At a first glance I thought the colour was aged beige plastic, kind of like an Amiga 500 that has been weathering on a table for 20 years.
Looks like it'll be suited to someone who smokes 20 cigarettes a day.... Already nicotine/tar stained... Not a fan of the pre 90s beige look...
Hmmm, a distinctly beige kind of gold..... Honestly though, it reminds me of computers from the 80s or 90s where the cases have discoloured over time (such as UV damage turning the plastic that awful yellow colour). Perhaps it'd help if it was polished rather than matte.
AMD need to get the 5800XT or the 5900XT out soon. Preferably by the end of the year, I need something to get me off this GTX1080Ti and I am not buying into the RTX "hype". If you look closely at the performance of the 5700XT it is shockingly close to the 1080Ti already and its a much smaller die. Just imagine what we could have if AMD bite the bullet and designed a 300-350mm die, putting all that space towards shader/compute performance. It would be matching or even beating in certain games the 2080Ti. But for probably near half the cost. I predict, if a chip does exist, it will be around the $550-$600 range.
Hold the phone did MSI steal a designer from Sapphire and say to them make our cooler look like a Sapphire cards cooler
