While AMD officially announced the Radeon Pro Duo several weeks ago at this point, boasting three times the power of a Titan Black, the company has yet to announce a release date for its dual-fury graphics card. However, one retailer may have jumped the gun, as a listing for the card has appeared online with a $2500 price tag and an estimated shipping date pencilled for the end of April.
This listing was found at PLE Computers in Australia and was pointed out to us by KitGuru reader Ethan Budge. Being an Australian store, that $2500 price tag would be AUD rather than USD, meaning in the US, the price translates to around $1941 and around £1350 here in the UK. Take pricing conversions with a pinch of salt though, as this doesn't take into account any additional costs, like VAT, which can vary from country to country.
Back when the Radeon Pro Duo was first officially unveiled, we heard that the card would launch with a price tag of around $1500 in the US, or around £1250 in the UK once 20 percent VAT is factored in.
The final bit of information this listing gives us is a potential release date. Previous rumours have pointed to an end of April release date for this GPU and this listing seems to support that, with a 26/04/16 ETA in shipping. So if you're in the market for a new dual-GPU graphics card, then you may want to keep your eyes peeled at the end of the month, assuming this information is correct.
KitGuru Says: AMD has had this card planned since it first announced the Fury-line of GPUs last year but it looks like an actual release date may just be on the horizon. The R9 295X2 was a pretty popular card so it will be interesting to see if the Radeon Pro Duo can recapture that.
By this point you may as well wait to see what the 490x is like
This beast will have the most power from all single card GPUs for at least 1 year or so from now. Vega and big Pascal will not surpass it me thinks, will just get close to it (70-80%) and be better in FPS/$ and FPS/W and win it for games that don’t take advantage of CF or SLI.
“from all single card GPUs” exept it is not a single card, but two working in crossfire, they just look like one card. It will reign supreme for about 2 months until the new GPU gen is out, at which point is already outdated on every front.
Buying two of the new Pascal or Polaris cards and running them in SLI/Crossfire will surely give you more performance than this card and probably cost even less, and will be more technologically advanced and better supported for longer. So really, why the heck buy this now when we are so near the new exciting stuff?
True this should have been out befor Xmas to make any good sales
This will run cooler due to its cooler than any 2 of the new gen cards though and will need far less space in the case and will be better in compute power. In 2 months the GPUs that will be on selves will not be more powerful than half of that. You will need to wait far longer for those.
