AMD Announces Project Quantum
AMD announced Project Quantum, what it claims to be the most powerful small form-factor gaming PC. About the size of a gaming console, and designed entirely by AMD, using AMD components, this machine packs two AMD "Fiji" graphics processors, with 8 GB of graphics memory, set in CrossFire, and an AMD 64-bit x86 machine. All hot components are liquid-cooled. The desktop will be marketed by AMD AIB partners, and will offer 60 FPS on any game at 4K resolution. Leveraging Windows 10 and DirectX 12, the machine will ship out a little later this year. More details soon.

I just wonder where/how the Fiji chips are in Project Quantum. I think they almost have to be soldered on to the mainboard. I also assume it has an external power supply--a very big one.
they describe as a non proprietary mini-itx board off the shelf at forbes. forbes is always what they post on facebook. modified pcie for crossfire.. its just more efficient and smaller than what they have sitting around for this project. almost sad but amd/ati gpu's have been sitting next to intel cpu's for ages. just dont have the capitol to make a complete amd solution without oem support.
Intel chip, AMD chip, who cares, I want to see what it does.
