Along with regular Radeon RX 5700-series graphics cards at the Next Horizon Gaming event at the recent E3 show, AMD also and a special limited edition of the Radeon RX 5700 XT graphics accelerator, dedicated to the fiftieth anniversary of AMD. And now the Cowcotland resource reports that this edition will be truly exclusive, as it will be officially sold only in the US and China.
It is reported that buyers from Europe, Australia and Africa will not be able to directly purchase a special edition of the Radeon RX 5700 XT, but only through any intermediaries, and obviously at a premium. Actually, such a development of events could have been assumed even during the announcement, where it was announced that AMD would sell the Radeon RX 5700 XT 50th Anniversary Edition video card only through its own website AMD.com, as well as on JD.com. The first is intended just for American buyers, and the second - for Chinese.
Note that this is not the first time that it may be difficult to purchase a special version of an AMD graphics card in a particular region. A similar situation has recently developed with the anniversary version of the Radeon VII video card.
And in the end, we recall that the anniversary edition of the Radeon RX 5700 XT video card will differ in external design, as well as increased clock frequencies of the graphics processor to 1680/1980 MHz. The official cost of the AMD exclusive new product will be $499, which is $50 more than the regular version of the Radeon RX 5700 XT.
