It's been topic of long debate and discussion. In Q1 2018 rumors surfaced that ASRock would be releasing graphics cards. Then all of the sudden we started to see a few teasers from ASRock, slowly word got out that the new series would be called Phantom gaming, but would it be for miners, gamers or both?
In April some cards got released, however at the time seemed restricted towards an Asia region, which sparked a nasty discussion on the web, some saying that AMD would not allow sales of these cards in the EU and USA. Back in May, that rumor got denied, meanwhile, in the background we've been talking towards ASRock to see what was going on. A couple of weeks ago I received word and confirmation that the Phantom Gaming series will hit the EU / EMEA markets as well. The ASRock Phantom Gaming series graphics card will become available starting next week, July 1st with an expected retail price of the Phantom Gaming X RX 580 8G OC at Euro 329; the RX 570 8G OC will cost Euro 319 and the RX 570 4G OC will cost Euro 295. We've confirmed this with ASRock EU.
We'll have a review on the RX 580 really soon as I am testing a card as we speak. Some photos below.
