Samsung Exynos SoC with AMD RDNA 2 architecture GPU will be postponed until July
At this year’s Computex, AMD CEO Dr. Lisa Su has confirmed that the RDNA 2 architecture will be integrated into Samsung Exynos SoC and will support ray tracing and variable rate shading. Earlier, Samsung has confirmed that the next generation of Exynos SoC with custom GPU will be the flagship model.
Samsung often chooses to use two SoCs at the same time on some models. For example, Qualcomm’s SoC is selected for products sold in the United States, and Exynos SoC is used for products sold in South Korea. The Exynos SoC based on the RDNA 2 architecture is likely to be launched in all markets. If this Exynos SoC proves to have better performance, in the end, more codec functions may be added in the future to allow more different platforms to adopt. Earlier news pointed out that Samsung intends to use this SoC on laptops.
At present, the specifications of the Exynos SoC integrated with the RDNA 2 architecture GPU have not been confirmed. People are more curious about the performance of the RDNA 2 architecture under low power consumption. The RDNA 2 architecture has demonstrated its strength on a series of Navi 2x chips.
