AMD Navi 10 would go destined to graphs of entrance and consoles

New information suggests that the AMD Navi 10 graphics cards will arrive destined to the input range.

AMD's Radeon division is suffering a lot of problems after the cut of more than 60%, but it seems that these problems are being solved. Part of the income of the Zen architecture is returning to Radeon and this division is recovering, but at a slow pace. It is expected that during the first half of 2019 the first Navi graphics cards arrive, some GPUs manufactured in 7nm for the gaming market, but, the first models will be destined to the input range.

Initially, the AMD Navi architecture in 7nm will go only for the input range.

This first information indicates that Navi for desktop will arrive between 2019 and 2020. The first models in 7nm, will be destined to 7nm. The models for the high-end, will take much longer to reach the market and although the HBM2 memories are very expensive, AMD would insist on installing them in high-end models. The average range, apparently, would go with GDDR6 memories, which would be manufactured by Micron and Samsung.

Navi will be the architecture used to replace the Polaris architecture, but in this case it aims to be more competitive than Polaris. The first models of this new architecture, in addition to the input range of graphic cards, could also be used for semi-customized solutions, pointing directly to consoles and other similar solutions.

Thus, the new architecture would be Navi 10 for 2019, specifically, for the first half of the year and aimed at the entry range. Navi 14 will arrive a few months later, focused on the mid-range. Finally in 2020 the Navi 20 will arrive, for the high range and they will be developed in 7nm. We must bear in mind that by the end of 2019, the first dedicated graphics cards from Intel could reach the market. Is AMD forgoing the high range to cover the range of entry and mid-range?
