AMD plans to unveil its latest Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card during Computex, starting on May 20th. A Brazilian electronics retailer, Terabyteshop, has prematurely leaked a product page for a 16GB version of the Gigabyte RX 9060 XT Gaming OC card. While this leak showcases a single variant, reliable sources indicate that AMD intends to release an 8GB version as well, although official confirmation is still pending. The Gigabyte RX 9060 XT Gaming OC 16GB resembles the Gigabyte Radeon RX 9070 Gaming OC in appearance, featuring a robust cooling system despite its lower power consumption. According to the leaked specifications, the Radeon RX 9060 XT GPU uses the Navi 44 XT architecture, equipped with 2048 stream processors and a core frequency of 3.23 GHz. It supports 16GB or 8GB of GDDR6 memory, with a bandwidth of 320 GB/s, and its TGP (Total Graphics Power) is expected to be below 200W. In comparison, the RX 9070 XT GPU features 4096 stream processors, a core frequency of 2.97 GHz, and a TGP of 304W, while the RX 9070 GPU has 3584 stream processors, a core frequency of 2.52 GHz, and a TGP of 220W. Both the RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT models come with 16GB of GDDR6 memory, providing a bandwidth of 640 GB/s. While the leaked product page does not specify the launch date or pricing, market speculation suggests that AMD will reveal both during Computex. The company's partners are also expected to showcase custom-built versions of the RX 9060 XT at the event. According to rumors, the card could start shipping as early as early June. Performance-wise, the Radeon RX 9060 XT is aimed at the mid-to-high-end market and is expected to compete against NVIDIA's RTX 4060 Ti and RTX 4070. Its high core frequency and substantial memory capacity should provide strong performance, particularly in 1440p gaming. Additionally, the sub-200W TGP indicates excellent power efficiency, making it appealing to users looking for a balance between performance and energy consumption. Meanwhile, hardware review site EXPreview has published a detailed analysis of the XFX-branded RX 9070 GRE, which is currently exclusive to the Chinese market. The RX 9070 GRE is positioned between the RX 9070 and the upcoming RX 9060 XT, showing mixed performance. While it matches the RTX 5070 in ray tracing performance, it lags behind by about 5-10% in rasterization performance. Notably, in games like Rainbow Six Siege, the difference can reach up to 21.86%. Pre-orders for the RX 9070 GRE unexpectedly opened in Chinese online stores about 10 days ago, and AMD later confirmed the availability, though it remains China-only with no global release date announced yet. The card uses a cut-down version of the Navi 48 GPU, with 3072 stream processors (48 compute units) and 12GB of GDDR6 memory running at 18 Gbps, likely a result of deliberate limitations. It is priced at 4199 yuan (approximately $575) in China, compared to 4499 yuan ($625) for the RX 9070 and RTX 5070. This price reduction of about $50 means users will miss out on some unique features of the RTX 5070, such as RTX HDR, VSR, Smooth Motion, and MFG, as well as additional VRAM and computing power that enhance 4K gaming experiences. The sample reviewed was the XFX RX 9070 GRE Snow Wolf, a pure white card with a three-fan cooler and dual 8-pin connectors. The card uses Samsung 20 Gbps GDDR6 modules, suggesting potential for memory overclocking and performance gains. Testing at 1440p resolution showed that the RTX 5070 generally outperformed the RX 9070 GRE by 5-10% in rasterization, but both cards performed similarly in ray tracing tests. At 4K resolution, the 12GB VRAM limitation was evident, affecting performance in higher-demand games. The RX 9070 GRE draws 9.3W at idle and around 245W under full load, with a peak power consumption of 317W. When adjusted for global markets, the suggested retail price of the RX 9070 GRE would be around $500 (excluding VAT). If supply of RDNA 4-based GPUs is sufficient, the RX 9070 GRE could serve as an upgrade option from the RX 9070, which is already seen as a stepping stone to the RX 9070 XT. However, considering the significant price drop of the earlier RX 7900 GRE from $700 to $549 in global markets, it remains to be seen if the RX 9070 GRE will undergo a similar adjustment. For Chinese gamers, the RX 9070 GRE offers a cost-effective alternative in terms of ray tracing performance, nearly matching the more expensive RTX 5070. Despite its advantages, it falls short in rasterization and 4K gaming due to its limited VRAM and fewer stream processors. For those seeking high-level ray tracing at a lower price point, the RX 9070 GRE is still a viable option. Industry insiders view the introduction of the Radeon RX 9060 XT as a strategic move to expand AMD's product range and cater to a broader audience. This addition underscores AMD's commitment to delivering competitive, power-efficient mid-to-high-end GPUs. The Gigabyte card, with its advanced cooling solution, is particularly noteworthy for ensuring stable performance. The exclusive release of the RX 9070 GRE in China is seen as a market test, likely tailored to meet specific local demands. This strategy highlights AMD's focus on value and ray tracing performance, contrasting with NVIDIA's emphasis on comprehensive feature support and ecosystem integration. Adjustments to global pricing or an increase in VRAM could make the RX 9070 GRE a more attractive offering in the broader market.
