Just like the RTX 5060 Ti, the Radeon RX 9060 XT will feature two memory configurations of 8GB and 16GB. The difference compared to GeForce is that AMD is sticking to GDDR6 technology and clocks of 20 Gbps.

Based on the most recent information we have from AMD board partners, the RX 9060 XT will launch with 2048 Stream Processors. This is, of course, nothing surprising, because the card was meant to use the Navi 44 GPU, which has half the core count of Navi 48.

We also have an update on clocks, and it looks very interesting. First, a reminder that the RX 7600 XT, the predecessor to the RX 9060 XT, featuring the Navi 33 XT GPU, had a game clock of 2470 MHz and a boost clock of 2755 MHz. The RDNA4 update will have much higher clocks. According to our information, the RX 9060 XT will ship with a 2620 MHz game clock and a 3230 MHz boost clock. But that's not all, we also learned that some OC variants will have a 3.3 GHz boost.

The RX 9060 XT will require at least a 500W power supply, and some models will need 550W or higher specs. We are yet to hear about the RX 9060 XT with a 16-pin power connector, as most specs we saw are for 8-pin variants. It's also worth adding that the RX 9060 XT will have three display connectors, not four like the RX 9070 series. This is likely due to the limitations of Navi 44.

That is about 26 TFLOPs, with VOPD.

upto 550w psu needed?
TDP for this gpu must be around 150w
impressive boost clocks

 

[amigastar]

I don't understand all those numbers besides Memory and TGP.

 

[tkscz]

Now price them significantly lower than the 5060Ti and I'll pre-order two of the damn things.

The 7600 XT uses around 190W, and AMD recommended a 600W PSU. So you are probably very close.
RDNA4 is very good for undervolting, so the 7600XT will probably be great for tweaking.

Weak.

Better config for this would be 192 bit and 12GB of memory. 5060ti will be saved thanks to gddr7.

 

[Skifi28]

Just let 8GB die already.

 

[PeteBull]

Success/failure of those low end gpu's is solely depended on pricing, if 8gig version costs 250 and 16gigs 300 streetprice, they will sell okish, altho i think true lowend chad of gpu gonna be some 9070 GRE model with 12gigs of vram

Yeah, I don't think we need 16GB for 1440p cards. But if it's cheap…

I understand 8GB for entry level products like an RTX 5050, but come on, mainstream cards should start at 12GB and anything on the level of a 5060 Ti should be 16GB. Enough with frugality.

Maybe not now, but in a few years down the line, if you wanna keep your high-res textures, even 12GB might not cut it.

Diablo IV easily surpasses 12GB on my rig. Its not outside the realm today, hell even a year ago to see 12GB+ usage at 1440p.

That will be for the 7900 GRE.

Are we positive they'll make a GRE? It was a China exclusive they then decided to release worldwide. Also, if they do it, I assume it's gonna be something like GSE for Golden Snake/Serpent Edition because 2025 is the year of the snake.

Techpowerup just added it to the GPUZ utility. So it's coming.
The question is when.

AMD Radeon RX 9070 GRE Spotted in GPU-Z v2.65.1 Support List

Earlier in the month, keen observers of Team Red activities were taken aback by whispers of a mysterious Radeon RX 9070 GRE GPU. Up until then, many assumed that AMD's engineering team was readying Radeon RX 9060 Series cards for launch in Q2'25. A source in China claimed that the next wave of...

But I don't need textures for 4K resolution since I don't need 4K resolution in a 34" display.

I never agreed with the "only for 4k resolution" myth. You can tell the difference at 1440p most of the time just fine.

Maybe but 12GB of dedicated VRAM that it's about what the PS5 has for all the logic is enough for an mid range 1440p card. I mean, it's better if it's 16GB of course but I'm looking for a sweet spot of price.

You don't need a 4K display for high-quality textures. Texture resolution isn't the same as screen resolution.

I have a 12GB card myself and it's been fine so far. But if I was buying one today to keep for 4 years or so, I'd be a little worried.

PS5 tier textures are fine.

8 years sure. But this gen can last 4 more years. And for high end graphics you'd need even more since RT consumes RAM, so 16GB wouldn't cut it either.

Not on a card coming out almost 5 years later, they aren't.

16GB would be enough 99% of the time. If you crank RT high enough to break that budget, then your 5060 Ti probably can't run those settings anyway, regardless of VRAM.

8GB card from AMD is pretty much useless at this point, AMD uses more memory than nvidia in games and 4060ti in 8GB version is already not enough for some new games even at medium 1080p:



Add to that:

- 128bit bus
- "slow" memory
- most likely cut down PCIE lanes...

This is a fucking disaster. 16GB version will be a decent GPU (depending on price) but 10GB is the MINIMUM right now for PS5 ports. Only fucking Intel knows this.

That will be for the 7900 GRE.

This GPU could be quite nice.

 

[StereoVsn]

Yeah, that 9070 GRE could be good if priced right. Otherwise only 16GB 9060XT makes sense unless 8GB model is super cheap.
