    To start with, I'd like very much for Navi to be successful for AMD, so the zealots can put away their knives, at least for the time being. And, I also have no axe to grind regarding Jim at AdoredTV.

    *If* this is indeed the PCB for the upcoming allegedly "mid-range" Navi card, I'm more than just a little apprehensive about this product. Keeping in mind that this is a new-from-jump 7nm GPU, I have to agree with mockingbird2 that it sure looks like there is, at least, the provision for one hell of a lot VRM-related paraphernalia, as well as the two 8-pin power connectors. Not even simply one eight-pin and one six-pin, which also could seem a bit much, even when considering the choice of VRAM.

    If the under-load wattage requirements of whatever chip is destined for this card really is in the 250-275W range, I'm hoping that this truly is the PCB for a workstation card, and most definitely not something intended for consumers/gamers.
