In short: AMD’s Radeon RX 7600 has been pictured weeks earlier than its anticipated launch date, and this as soon as once more confirms it can include simply eight gigabytes of GDDR6 reminiscence. As with all upcoming mainstream GPUs, pricing is what’s going to decide its success, and the rumor mill says Group Crimson has determined set the MSRP at not more than $249.
AMD CEO Lisa Su lately confirmed that it’ll launch mainstream RDNA 3 playing cards in just a few weeks, probably round Computex later this month. The rumor mill says Nvidia may even launch its GeForce RTX 4060 Ti across the identical time as Group Crimson, and a standard theme with these upcoming merchandise appears to be that all of them include eight gigabytes of graphics reminiscence – a moderately modest quantity now that AAA video games require round 10-12 gigabytes if you wish to allow top quality textures.
Due to an nameless fanatic (through VideoCardz), we now know that retailers are already making ready for the launch of AMD’s Radeon RX 7600 graphics card, that means it will not be lengthy earlier than we see an official announcement. The mannequin in query appears to be the Sapphire Radeon RX 7600 Pulse, and it was noticed at an unnamed retailer in Asia. Individually, @Komachi_Ensaka noticed an inventory for a similar card on Carousell, a web-based market.
The packaging reveals the RX 7600 is predicated across the Navi 33 GPU with 32 RDNA 3 compute models (2,048 shader models) and 32 megabytes of Infinity Cache. A latest leak suggests it can slot someplace between the RX 6650 XT and the RX 6700/6750 XT when it comes to efficiency, although it is attainable the 8GB body buffer might transform a significant limiting issue in video games like Forspoken, The Final of Us Half I, Hogwarts Legacy, and The Callisto Protocol.
Apparently, the individual that took footage of the Radeon RX 7600 containers claims the cardboard could have a retail value of $249, which appears unlikely. It is easy to consider it as a smart value, contemplating you should purchase the RX 6650 XT will be discovered for round $270, whereas the RX 6700 XT/6750 XT (which come outfitted with 12 gigabytes of VRAM as a substitute of eight) will be discovered for as little as $335.49.
On the identical time, an RX 7600 priced at $300 or larger would doubtless be useless on arrival, although we might properly see a repeat of the RX 6600 story, with the brand new card launching at a excessive MSRP however steadily dropping to a extra palatable value level. In any case, take the rumored $249 MSRP for the RX 7600 with a big grain of salt as we’ve but to verify its validity.
