We’re just a few weeks away from AMD’s RDNA 2 launch event, but full specifications for its first Radeon RX 6000 series cards may have already appeared online.
As part of its latest buying guide, Newegg Insider, a company blog featured on the cover of the US retailer, has listed the purported specifications for AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards.
While these specs should be taken with a pinch of salt, they suggest that AMD is preparing three GPUs for its October 28 launch event: the RX 6700 XT, Radeon RX 6800 XT, and Radeon RX 6900 XT.
The latter, Newegg Insider claims, will be the highest specification of the three GPUs with 5,120 streaming processors (SPs), 16GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit memory bus, and 512Gbps memory bandwidth.
The Radeon RX 6800 XT will reportedly feature 3,840 SP, 12GB of GDDR6 memory, and 385Gbps of maximum memory bandwidth, according to the blog, while the Radeon RX 6700 XT will reportedly support 2,560 SP, 6GB of GDDR6 memory, 2 GB less than the Radeon RX 5700 XT.
This isn’t the only thing that casts doubt on the Newegg Insider report. It also suggests that all three AMD RDNA 2-based graphics cards will come with a 1,500MHz base clock, which seems unlikely. For example, a recent macOS firmware leak, covered by Videocardz, suggested that RDNA 2 GPUs will boast clock speeds between 2050 and 2500 MHz.
The Newegg report also suggests that the Radeon RX 6900 XT, RX 6800 XT, and RX 6700 XT will have TDP ratings of 300W, 200W, and 150W, respectively.
While the accuracy of this latest leak remains unclear, it won’t be long until we find out what AMD’s Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards have. The firm is expected to officially launch the cards at an event on October 28.
