Title：AMD’s partners cannot get enough Radeon R9 Fury graphics cards – report
From：http://www.kitguru.net/component ... phics-cards-report/
Apparently, the problems of Advanced Micro Devices with its latest Radeon R9 Fury-series graphics cards may be significantly more serious than whining cooling system or limited overclockability. If a new media report is to be believed, then the company cannot supply enough boards to its partners.
显然，AMD最新的Radeon R9 Fury系列显卡，可能有一个比水冷啸叫和限制超频更严重的问题。如果一份新的报道属实的话，AMD不能为合作伙伴提供足够的板卡。（货源紧张的原因吧……）
It is not a secret that the launch of AMD’s latest Radeon R9 Fury-series graphics cards was not very easy for AMD. The company delayed the product for a number of times and while its performance is high, it cannot beat its direct rival in all applications. Moreover, while AMD’s decision to use innovative high-bandwidth memory allowed the company to make its new graphics cards significantly shorter, its choice to use liquid cooling did not really pay off and resulted in a rather noisy cooler. However, all the challenges that AMD faces today may be considered as insignificant as the chip designer simply cannot deliver enough Radeon R9 Fury-series graphics cards to all of its partners.
对于AMD来说Radeon R9 Fury系列的发布显然不是一个容易的事。公司几次推迟了产品发布，虽然性能高，但是还是在所有应用中直接打败对手。此外，虽然用HBM来缩短板长，但是水冷上出现了啸叫问题。如今，AMD现在面临的挑战是芯片的出货量无法为所有的合作伙伴提供足够的Radeon R9 Fury显卡。
Advanced Micro Devices has over 10 add-in-card partners, who officially buy graphics processing units from the company. Virtually all allies of AMD currently ship top-of-the-range Radeon R9 Fury X graphics solutions. However, only Asustek Computer and Sapphire Technology will offer AMD Radeon R9 Fury products initially, reports Hardwareluxx. Eventually companies like Gigabyte Technology, MicroStar International, PowerColor and other will also offer AMD Radeon R9 Fury graphics cards, but at first, such products will only be available in limited quantities from two of AMD’s partners.
AMD拥有超过10家的正式购买显示核心的合作伙伴。但事实上，AMD只给顶级的伙伴Radeon R9 Fury X的解决方案。然而在Hardwareluxx最初的报道中，只有华硕和蓝宝会提供AMD Radeon R9 Fury产品。最终像技嘉、微星、迪兰恒进也将会提供AMD Radeon R9 Fury产品，但一开始只会提供给两个合作伙伴。
According to the report, yields of AMD’s code-named “Fiji” graphics processing unit are rather low. Insufficient yields are not something surprising: with 8.9 billion transistors inside, the “Fiji” is the most complex chip ever produced. While the IC [integrated circuit] is not as large as Nvidia Corp.’s GM200, it is considerably harder to produce because of higher transistor density. Moreover, since “Fiji” uses all-new high-bandwidth memory (HBM) as well as a special interposer to connect memory to the GPU, testing and packaging process of the chip is extremely complex.
据报道，Fiji的产量是相当低的。但这并不令人吃惊，因为Fiji是现在最复杂的芯片，拥有89亿晶体管。而IC（集成电路）也不像绿队的GM200一样大，所以晶体管密度相当大，芯片也相当难生产。此外，由于fiji用的是HBM和链接HBM和GPU的特殊内插器，所以测试和封装过程十分复杂。
The exact yield rate of AMD’s “Fiji” is uncertain and it is unclear how many chips Advanced Micro Devices can get from its partners at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Moreover, since cycle times of TSMC’s 28nm fabrication process are over two months, it is clear that AMD cannot solve all of its problems quickly.
Fiji确切的产率尚不清楚，也不清楚AMD能从合作伙伴台积电那里得到多少芯片。此外由于台积电的28纳米制造工艺的周期时间已经过了2个月，显然AMD不能很快的解决所有问题。
AMD and its partners did not comment on the news-story.
AMD和合作伙伴没有就此报道发表评论。
KitGuru Says: If AMD’s yields of “Fiji” are considerably lower than those of Nvidia’s GM200, then AMD will not be able to significantly lower the price of its Radeon R9 Fury-series graphics adapters to better compete against Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 980 Ti.
网站点评：如果AMD的Fiji产量比绿队的GM200要低得多，那么AMD将无法显著降低Radeon R9 Fury系列的价格，来对抗绿队的GTX 980 Ti。 |
