With the launch of AMD KRDNA 4 graphics architecture and Redon RX 9070 graphics cards in late February, we were hoping to get more information about mainstream models. Nothing has been officially said yet, but the first detailed species has reached the leak interviews, RX 9060 XT has claimed up to 2,048 shaders, 3.2 GHz boost clock, and VRAM’s 16 GB.
Is in accordance with Videovards Which does not refer to any sources for information other than the “recent information of the AMD board partners”, but I don’t think they are more foreigners. However, the Redon RX 9070 XT Sports is unlikely to be near the Navy 48GPU in 4,096 shaders, therefore in 9060 Xt too close to the small chip.
If the claim is being made, then 9060 XT will be basically 9070 XT hack in two – you are getting half the number of shaders and memory bus which is half wide. Or to put it in number: 2,048 stream processors (with 128 TMU and 64 ROPS) and 128 -bit memory bus. It is just like a Radian RX 7600 XT but 9060 XT receives the ground based on its 3.2 GHz boost clock, which is 16 % higher than the 7600 Xt.
Regardless of that the final spectacle is like, AMD is developing RX 7600 XT against RTX 5060 TI of AMD NVIDIA, which will come in two VRAM formats: 8 GB and 16 GB. We have already seen claims that RX 9060 XT will have the same option, but one thing it does not have is a very fast VRAM. Since the AMD still uses GDDR6 for reasons for prices, you will only get a 320 GB/s or more memory bandout.
Although we do not know what speed will use RTX 5060 TI, one can be estimated at least, because the RTX 50 series has been the slowest GDDR7 28 GBPS (RTX 5070 and RTX 5090). If 5060 TI uses it, it will be proud of 448 MB/s bandout – 40 % higher than the RX 9060 XT.
To counter this, the AMD uses a complex but powerful cache system in its RDNA graphics chips, and like 7600 Xt, I expect the RX 9060 XT to have a relatively narrow memory bandout 32 MB L3 infinity cache.
Of course, the PC gamers that are going to care about price, availability, and for some people, how much power it will use. If I pop over my wizard hat and stare at my crystal ball, I can take it all the wild war in the dark. We say that NVIDIA launchs RTX 5060 TI for 8 GB version 5 375: AMD will almost certainly put the RX 9060 XT on it less than $ 50, but whatever it does, it will probably be closer to the launch price of 7600 XT $ 329.
After that, MSRPs understood, but these days I would not be surprised if very few partners of the board offered anything at $ 350 and I should imagine that there would be 9060 XT models that would reach close to $ 499.
Hopefully, all these cards will have a reasonable delivery, especially more affordable. But even if there is there, the GPU demand is high at the moment, so the stock will probably disappear very fast for the first few weeks or months.
Regarding power consumption, I think it will be in the north of the 230W WW. 7600 XT is a 190W graphics card but 9060 XT is very high and GPU has kept dedicated matrix unit to accelerate the AI -powered FSR4 upscling system. The 4,096 shader uses up to 9070 Xt 304 W so it is clear that RDNA 4 loves power in a decent quantity.
Unless the AMD officially launches Redon RX 9060 Xt, this is all estimated and rumored. Even if it has a measurement of RTX 5060 TI, we do not run both cards through our full benchmark Sweet, but I suspect the NVIDIA card will be faster for both of them, though there will be higher price tags. Throw in DLSS 4 and it still gets difficult, as AMD has nothing to do with NVIDIA’s multi -frame generation.
But the way things are currently, any semi -decent GPU with a price tag that does not need any organs or three sales in the black market is going to be well sold.
