When showcasing their new lineup of notebooks at CES, Lenovo has accidentally revealed AMD’s RX 560M GPU alongside their Y520 laptop, marking the first appearance of the RX 500 series.
In Lenovo’s description, they list this new AMD GPU as supporting up to 4GB of VRAM, though at this time no other specifications are known.

AMD will be holding a press event on January 5th at 2pm GMT, which will be showcasing AMD’s upcoming Vega architecture. It is expected that AMD will also be showcasing their new RX 500 series of GPUs at this event, finally offering a competitor to Nvidia’s high-end Pascal lineup.
