AMD Has Completed Its Radeon RX 7000 “RDNA 3” GPU Family But Hints At Refresh
AMD has confirmed that the Radeon RX 7000 "RDNA 3" GPU family is now complete and no additional SKUs are planned though we might see a refresh.
Talking during the pre-show of last night's Radeon Gaming event, Scott Herkelman (AMD's Senior Vice President) confirmed that their RDNA 3 portfolio featuring the Radeon RX 7000 GPU was now complete with the launch of the Radeon RX 7800 XT & RX 7700 XT GPUs. The new cards target the $499 US & $449 US high-end gaming segment and will be launching on the 6th of September with plenty of models to choose from.
With yesterday's launch, there are now six graphics cards within the Radeon RX 7000 GPU family. These include the flagship Radeon RX 7900 XTX starting at $999 US, RX 7900 XT for $849 US, 7900 GRE for $649 US, 7800 XT for $499 US, 7700 XT for $449 US, and RX 7600 for $269 US. It's notable that AMD has no competition to offer within the $299-$399 US segment and that leaves a big gap since this is usually the segment where most mainstream gamers are spending.
As for the lineup itself, the RX 7900 XTX is positioned against the RTX 4080 with 24 GB VRAM, the RX 7900 XT is positioned against the RTX 4070 Ti with 20 GB VRAM, the RX 7900 GRE is positioned as an RTX 4070 competitor with 16 GB VRAM, the RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT are positioned against the RTX 4070 and RTX 4060 Ti with 16/12 GB VRAM and the RX 7600 is positioned against the RTX 4060 with 8 GB VRAM. The RX 7900 GRE is mostly a Chinese GPU with limited availability in global marketplaces.
Following is what AMD's Scott Herkelman had to say:
