It looks like AMD isn't going to bother with a Radeon RX Vega Nano reference design. Even though the firm displayed a prototype last summer, the company is now showcasing the PowerColor Radeon RX Vega 56 Nano at Computex. This design was cooked up by PowerColor itself, so it looks like this may be the sole RX Vega Nano card.

The PowerColor card has a 1156MHz base clock and 8GB HBM2, just like the reglar RX Vega 56. However, the card has an 8-pin plus 6-pin PCIe power connector, while the original Vega 56 has two 8-pin connectors. Other specifications of the card weren't shared. The images reveal the PowerColor RX Vega 56 Nano has an aluminium fin-stack heatsink, with a single fan.

It's supposed to hit the market really soon, with a MSRP of $449. It's cute, but it arrives way too late.
