Evidence record

Sources and verification

Specifications for AMD Radeon RX 550 were checked against the linked source material. Last verified .

AMD introduced the series on 2017-04-18 and stated expected RX 550 availability on 2017-04-20. The proposed date is expected availability rather than confirmed retail observation. Official 2 GB and 4 GB boards exist with 512 SP and 640 SP. Scalar clocks, power and bandwidth remain absent because the schema cannot scope variant differences. The ASUS image is a representative Phoenix 2 GB board but EVO is not asserted.
