AMD Radeon R9 Nano Specifications Leaks

VideoCardz has been able to spoil the fun of pretty much every GPU launch in recent history and it doesn’t look like that trend is going to be changing anytime soon. The web site has published what looks to be an official AMD marketing slide for the tiny and highly anticipated AMD Radeon R9 NANO 4GB HBM video card. The slide shows the complete specs for the AMD Radeon R9 Nano graphics card and shows an embargo date of August 27th. It looks like AMD could be announcing the Nano tomorrow, but since partner board images haven’t leaked out yet we highly doubt you’ll be able to purchase one of these six inch long cards tomorrow and that this will just be a paper launch.

The AMD Radeon R9 Nano Specifications slide shows that the card features the full AMD ‘Fiji’ GPU with 4096 Stream Processors and 64 Compute units running at 1000MHz. This is good for 8.19 TFLOPS of GPU compute performance. The 4GB of HBM 1 memory running at 500MHz uses a 4096-bit bus and has 512 GB/s of memory bandwidth. When it comes to power the card is shown as using 175W under typical scenarios and has just one 8-pin PCIe power connector on the end of the card.

The Korean website IYD.kr has published over a dozen images of what appears to be the AMD Radeon R9 Nano reference card, including pictures with the GPU Cooler removed from the card. a raft of new pictures showing the Nano from many angles. You can have a look through the collection of very clear photos on the site. The PCB images appear to show that AMD went with a 4+2 power phase design on the Radeon R9 Nano instead of the 6-2 power phase design that is used on the AMD Radeon R9 Fury/Fury X.

We can’t wait to see how the AMD Radeon R9 Nano performs and look forward to using the new performance per inch metric that AMD has been talking about for months. Let’s bring on the FPS/Inch war! Right now all we can talk about is how this card with 8.19 TFLOPS is rated at 1.365 TFLOPS per inch!
