![]() When you open the contents of the first part, looks at us padding and left the smaller cardboard box with remote control, power reduction, and small manual + sticker Strix. Out of the box the first pull another one, which is incorporated in the outer carton. If you are interested in what is DirectCUIII Super Alloy Power or Auto Extreme technology, direct you to a recent video article in London: Rear side is devoted to the main points already Strix edition DCIII in detail, describes plates graphics cards, new fan blades, auto-extreme manufacturing technology and control, material components, software GPU Tweak II which contains XSplit streaming free and outputs on the graphics card. ![]() Box informs about 0 db noise and a unique collected Asus Awards The card arrived in a handsome box with an owl theme, suggesting features Strix edition (owl is a quiet, well-sees, hears and has a strong attack - equivalence for the perfect graphics card). Additional technical information on the specifications are at the end of this post. Of the specifics of the support card is technologically interesting Eyefinity, True Audio, DX12, Mantle, UVD, VCE acceleration, PCIe Crossfire through the line. It is the second largest core in history, core of AMD cards. The card is made by 28nm process, which is already with us for many years. Internally "Grenada" has been called as "Hawaii Refresh"." If you are testing the differences between the two bioses, make sure you have the power limit set to the maximum setting (+50%) on both of them. This means that if at some point the card reaches it´s power limit and starts to shuffle through the different performance states, the "Grenada" cards might appear to be faster than "Hawaii" simply because of the higher clocks. If you are testing differences between "Hawaii" and "Grenada" bioses, note that "Grenada" bioses have higher clocks thru the different performance states than "Hawaii" bioses. The revision number is configured by the fuse configuration during manufacturing and cannot be altered by the bios on retail cards. They both obviously share the DeviceID but "Grenada" cards have their revision number bumped to 8h (instead of 0h on Hawaii). AMD changed the fused configuration in a way the driver can tell the difference between "the old" Hawaii and "the new" Grenada cards. The down sides in using high leakage ASICs are the higher temperatures through the board and higher power consumption (due temperatures and lower VRM efficiency).Īny performance difference between "Hawaii" and "Grenada" cards is caused by the display driver. Higher leakage makes it possible reach higher clocks without violating the design electrical characteristics of the die, in terms of voltage. "Grenada XT" has the highest leakage characteristics of Hawaii family. The dies are binned for lowest possible leakage characteristics in order to reduce the power consumption and dissipated heat. The XT(L) bin is the highest quality of Hawaii family ASICs. The only difference between the full variants (i.e. "There is no physical difference between project 215-08520xx ("Hawaii") and 215-08800xx ("Grenada") ASICs. ![]() Here is the expression of the appellation working for AMD: Although flash process of BIOS 390 to 290 cards, it's not just a performance quite it. Still, there is speculation whether this is just a rebrand or for minor changes inside the core. What is under the cooler shield we will see later (I have plan to test temperatures comparison with stock TIM vs Gelid Extreme TIM)Ĭore AMD called "Grenada" is based on previous news chip, AMD Hawaii. First time we take a minute for design of the card.
