In the prepared statement for the Q3 2018 earnings call, AMD CEO Lisa Su revealed that mobile Vega GPUs started shipping. The first premium laptops with mobile Vega GPUs are expected to launch this quarter:
In graphics, the year-over-year revenue decrease was primarily driven by significantly lower channel GPU sales, partially offset by improved OEM and datacenter GPU sales. Channel GPU sales came in lower than expected, based on excess channel inventory levels, caused by the decline in blockchain-related demand that was so strong earlier in the year. OEM GPU sales in the third quarter increased by a strong double-digit percentage year-over-year as new design wins began to ramp, including first shipments of our mobile Vega GPUs to support new premium notebooks launching this quarter.
Su also added that the 7nm Vega GPU for the datacenter market is on track for a launch this quarter.
