The AMD Radeon R5/R7/R9 200 series is a family unit of GPUs adult by AMD. These GPUs are manufactured on a 28 nm Gate-Concluding procedure through TSMC or Mutual Platform Alliance.^[ix]

Release [edit]

The Rx 200 serial was announced on September 25, 2013, at the AMD GPU14 Tech Day result.^[10] Not-disclosure agreements were lifted on October fifteen, except for the R9 290X, and pre-orders opened on October three.^[eleven]

Architecture [edit]

• Graphics Cadre Next 3 (Volcanic Islands) is constitute on the R9 285 (Tonga Pro) branded products.
• Graphics Core Next 2 (Sea Islands) is plant on R7 260 (Bonaire), R7 260X (Bonaire XTX), R9 290 (Hawaii Pro), R9 290X (Hawaii XT), and R9 295X2 (Vesuvius) branded products.
• Graphics Core Next 1 (Southern Islands) is plant on R9 270, 270X, 280, 280X, R7 240, 250, 250X, 265, and R5 240 branded products.
• TeraScale 2 (VLIW5) (Northern Islands or Evergreen) is found on R5 235X and beneath branded products.
• OpenGL 4.x compliance requires supporting FP64 shaders. These are implemented by emulation on some TeraScale (microarchitecture) GPUs.
• Vulkan one.0 requires GCN-Architecture. Vulkan 1.ane requires GCN 2 or higher.^[12]

Multi-monitor support [edit]

The AMD Eyefinity-branded on-die display controllers were introduced in September 2009 in the Radeon HD 5000 Serial and have been present in all products since.^[13]

AMD TrueAudio [edit]

AMD TrueAudio was introduced with the AMD Radeon Rx 200 Serial, but can only be establish on the dies of GCN 2/3 products.

Video acceleration [edit]

AMD'southward SIP core for video acceleration, Unified Video Decoder and Video Coding Engine, are found on all GPUs and supported by AMD Catalyst and by the complimentary and open-source graphics device driver.

Use in cryptocurrency mining [edit]

During 2014 the Radeon R9 200 series GPUs offered a very competitive price for usage in cryptocurrency mining. This led to express supply and huge price increases of up to 164% over the MSRP in Q4 of 2013 and Q1 of 2014.^{[14] [15]} Since Q2 of 2018 availability of AMD GPUs as well every bit pricing has, in most cases, returned to normal.

CrossFire Compatibility [edit]

Considering many of the products in the range are rebadged versions of Radeon HD products, they remain uniform with the original versions when used in CrossFire mode. For instance, the Radeon Hd 7770 and Radeon R7 250X both use the 'Cape verde XT' flake so have identical specifications and will work in CrossFire mode. This provides a useful upgrade option for anyone who owns an existing Radeon Hd card and has a CrossFire uniform motherboard.

Virtual super resolution support [edit]

Starting with the driver release candidate version v14.501-141112a-177751E, officially named every bit Catalyst Omega, AMD's driver release introduced VSR on the R9 285 and R9 290 series graphics cards. This feature allows users to run games with higher image quality by rendering frames at above native resolution. Each frame is then downsampled to native resolution. This procedure is an alternative to supersampling which is not supported past all games. Virtual super resolution is similar to Dynamic Super Resolution, a feature available on competing nVidia graphics cards, simply trades flexibility for increased performance.^{[16] [17]} VSR can run at a resolution upwards of 2048 x 1536 at a 120 Hz refresh rate or 3840 x 2400 at 60 Hz.^[eighteen]

OpenCL (API) [edit]

OpenCL accelerates many scientific Software Packages confronting CPU up to factor 10 or 100 and more. Open up CL 1.0 to 1.2 are supported for all Chips with Terascale and GCN Architecture. OpenCL 2.0 is supported with GCN 2nd Gen. (or 1.2) and higher.^[19] For OpenCL 2.1 and ii.two just Driver Updates are necessary with OpenCL 2.0 conformant Cards.

Vulkan (API) [edit]

API Vulkan 1.0 is supported for all GCN architecture cards. Vulkan 1.two requires GCN 2nd gen or higher with the Adrenalin twenty.1 and Linux Mesa 20.0 drivers and newer.

Desktop models [edit]

Radeon R9 295X2 [edit]

The Radeon R9 295X2 was released on April 21, 2014. It is a dual GPU menu. Press samples were shipped in a metal instance. It is the commencement reference card to utilize a closed looped liquid cooler.^{[20] [21]} At xi.5 teraflops of computing ability, the R9 295X2 was the most powerful dual-gpu consumer-oriented carte in the globe, until it was succeeded by the Radeon Pro Duo on April 26, 2016, which is substantially a combination of ii R9 Fury X (Fiji XT) GPUs on a unmarried card.^[20] The R9 295x2 has substantially two R9 290x (Hawaii XT) GPUs each with 4GB GDDR5 VRAM.^[twenty]

Radeon R9 290X [edit]

The Radeon R9 290X, codename "Hawaii XT", was released on October 24, 2013 and features 2816 Stream Processors, 176 TMUs, 64 ROPs, 512-fleck wide buses, 44 CUs (compute units) and 8 ACE units. The R9 290X had a launch price of $549.

Radeon R9 290 [edit]

The Radeon R9 290 and R9 290X were announced on September 25, 2013.^{[22] [23]} The R9 290 is based on AMD'southward Hawaii Pro flake and R9 290X on Hawaii XT. R9 290 and R9 290X will back up AMD TrueAudio, Mantle, Direct3D 11.2, and span-gratuitous Crossfire technology using XDMA.

1. ^ The Radeon 100 Series has programmable pixel shaders, merely do non fully comply with DirectX eight or Pixel Shader i.0. See article on R100's pixel shaders.
2. ^ R300, R400 and R500 based cards exercise non fully comply with OpenGL two+ as the hardware does not support all types of non-power of ii (NPOT) textures.
3. ^ OpenGL iv+ compliance requires supporting FP64 shaders and these are emulated on some TeraScale chips using 32-flake hardware.
4. ^ ^{a b c} The UVD and VCE were replaced by the Video Core Next (VCN) ASIC in the Raven Ridge APU implementation of Vega.
5. ^ Video processing ASIC for video frame rate interpolation technique. In Windows it works as a DirectShow filter in your player. In Linux, there is no support on the part of drivers and / or community.
6. ^ ^{a b} To play protected video content, it as well requires card, operating system, commuter, and awarding back up. A compatible HDCP display is as well needed for this. HDCP is mandatory for the output of sure sound formats, placing additional constraints on the multimedia setup.
7. ^ More displays may be supported with native DisplayPort connections, or splitting the maximum resolution betwixt multiple monitors with active converters.
8. ^ ^{a b} DRM (Direct Rendering Director) is a component of the Linux kernel. AMDgpu is the Linux kernel module. Support in this table refers to the almost current version.

Graphics device drivers [edit]

AMD'south proprietary graphics device driver "Catalyst" [edit]

AMD Goad is being developed for Microsoft Windows and Linux. As of July 2014, other operating arrangement are not officially supported. This may be different for the AMD FirePro brand, which is based on identical hardware but features OpenGL-certified graphics device drivers.

AMD Catalyst supports of class all features advertised for the Radeon brand.

Free and open-source graphics device driver "Radeon" [edit]

The costless and open-source drivers are primarily developed on Linux and for Linux, merely have been ported to other operating systems also. Each driver is composed out of five parts:

1. Linux kernel component DRM
2. Linux kernel component KMS driver: basically the device commuter for the brandish controller
3. user-space component libDRM
4. user-infinite component in Mesa 3D;
5. a special and distinct second graphics device driver for 10.Org Server, which if finally almost to exist replaced by Glamor

The free and open-source "Radeon" graphics commuter supports most of the features implemented into the Radeon line of GPUs.^[6] Unlike the nouveau projection for Nvidia graphics cards, the open-source "Radeon" drivers are non reverse engineered, just based on documentation released past AMD.^[56]
