AMD Volcanic Islands “Hawaii” GPU Confirmed Through AMD’s Training Course Website

From previous reports, we know that AMD’s next generation of graphic cards would fall within the Volcanic Islands series. Apparently, someone on AMD’s official Taiwan webpage leaked and confirmed through their Education center training course that Hawaii (Flagship of the Volcanic Islands series) is indeed heading for launch this year in Q4.

The site has already removed this information confirming that the leak was legit and Guru3d was fast enough to get a screen-grab. The picture’s however are the same as you can note, Hawaiian dancers are posted next to the last discrete GPU line confirming the Hawaii GPU as the flagship GPU of the volcanic
island series. This was probably a huge leak since AMD hasn’t till now
posted anything official related their upcoming generation of graphic cards
but this leak not only confirms new discrete graphic chips for desktop
platform but also AMD’s discrete mobility lineup. This actually confirms
the rumor
that was posted a few days ago by us about engineering samples being
sent out to manufacturers for evaluation such as Sapphire. The card boasts a 12 layer PCB that would support the Hawaii chip (larger than Tahiti in die size) and upto 7 cooling designs have already been prepared by the manufacturer.
