AMD expands its Embedded Radeon graphics lineup

Adds Tonga XT-based E8950 MXM

AMD has expanded its lineup of AMD Embedded Radeon graphics cards aimed to be used in multiple form-factors and embedded applications. The new lineup includes power efficient, high performance and ultra-high performance graphics cards, including the Tonga XT-based AMD Embedded Radeon E8950 MXM module.

The new AMD Embedded Radeon lineup will be spread into three categories, power efficient, high performance and ultra-high performance, depending on the actual application of the embedded graphics card. With performance ranging from 192 GFLOPS to 3 TFLOPS of single-precision compute performance and TDP ranging from 20W to just under 95W, the new Embedded Radeon lineup will be available in Multi-Chip Module (MCM), Mobile PCI Express Module (MXM) and PCIe options.

The top of the offer and the only Embedded Radeon graphics card in the ultra-high performance segment is the AMD Embedded Radeon E8950MXM module, based on Tonga XT GPU. Packing 2048 Stream Processors, 128 TMUs, 32 ROPs and a 256-bit memory interface connected to 8GB of GDDR5 memory, the GPU is based on AMD GCN 1.2 architecture, supports DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.5, OpenCL, Mantle and Vulkan as well as supports decoding/encoding of 4K videos with H.265 and H.264 codecs and AMD Eyefinity technology for up to 6 display output.

The Embedded Radeon E8950MXM module is AMD's most powerful and feature rich embedded graphics card up to date and probably the most powerful embedded graphics card on the market.

In addition to the Embedded Radeon E8950MXM module, AMD has also introduced the AMD Embedded Radeon E8870 series, which will be available in MXM and PCIe form-factors and offer up to 12 Compute Units for 1.5 TFLOPS of performance, 4GB of GDDR5 memory on a 128-bit memory interface, up to 75W TDP, same support for DirectX 12, OpenGL 4.5, and OpenCL 2.0 and AMD Eyefinity with up to 6 display output.

The power efficient segment will get the AMD Embedded Radeon E6465 Series graphics card in three different form-factors, MCM, MXM and PCIe. Packing 2 Compute Units and offering up to 192 GFLOPS of single-precision compute performance, the Embedded Radeon E6465 will pack 2GB of GDDR5 memory on a 64-bit wide memory interface, up to 20W TDP, support for DirectX 11.1, OpenGL 4.5, and OpenCL 1.2 as well as AMD Eyefinity technology for up to 4 displays.

The entire lineup should be already available to OEM customers and support Windows 7, Windows 8.1, Windows 10 and Linux OS.
