Custom AMD Radeon RX 5700 Cards Won't Be Available until Mid-August

[Tsing]

The only AMD Radeon 5700 GPUs that will be available at launch will be reference designs. That's what Fudzilla claims, anyway, and its editors may have a point, since AIB partners have been quiet thus far regarding custom variants.

It was quite surprising that usual AMD AIB partners did not announce custom RX 5700 versions when AMD unveiled the Radeon RX 5700 series, which moved us to ask around and some partners confirmed they are working hard and expect them on retail/e-tail shelves in mid-August, at least if all goes well with design and supply. Of course, we expect announcements from usual suspects in July.

Boo. I hate being teased. Bad enough waiting for the new Ryzen lineup

Sorta reminds me of the Vega launch.

I'm guessing at this point we'd have heard something about custom VIIs, eh?

It was that way with the GTX 1080 Ti's as well.
