After AMD’s recent show of their first RDNA2 demo reel powered by Microsoft’s DX12 Ultimate, still, there’s more to be done during this pandemic. The effects of COVID-19 are currently being felt globally. This current crisis has gamers thinking of what tomorrow may bring as it impacts the supply chain globally.
For this reason, AMD’s Dr. Lisa Su has written a peace note to address their partners, promising that they would be with them through thick and thin to support their businesses.
Important steps being taken to “flatten the curve” globally. As we navigate these unprecedented times, @AMD’ers globally are working hard to support our customers, partners, and communities. Let’s all practice “social distancing” and leverage tech to stay connected and safe!

Based on what Dr. Lisa Su stated, their employees’ health and safety have to be their main concern, as a mandatory call from every standpoint following the local government and health officials.
She also promised to keep communication open and transparent so both their partners and fans would be updated on the company’s every move.
Here’s the announcement that was sent out to all AMD’s partners by Dr. Lisa Su in its entirety word-for-word:
