AMD's Radeon RX 7600 8 GB graphics cards may not be as affordable as we initially thought based on a rumor from Cowcotland.
The AMD Radeon RX 7600 8 GB graphics card is launching very soon with just a couple of weeks left. This graphics card has already leaked out and we have also seen confirmed specifications in leaks which were listed on the box package. The graphics card will utilize the entry-level Navi 33 GPU which is designed for budget and mainstream laptops though it looks like the pricing might remain on the high side.
According to Cowcotland, the AMD Radeon RX 7600 8 GB graphics card will launch on the 25th of May, as expected, but the pricing will be set to €349. This is the pricing for France so we can't say for sure if VAT is included or not. If this is the price with a VAT of 20%, we can expect the card to cost €279. If this is the pricing without VAT, then we can expect it at an even higher price of €419.
Previously, it was expected that the card would cost around $249-$299 US so we are still hopeful that it lands around that range rather than going in the $300 US+ range. We should also consider that this is a Non-XT variant and its predecessor, the Radeon RX 7600, also hit retail at $329 US so the pricing may very well be true. The card does offer more VRAM and a new graphics architecture versus the Radeon RX 6600.
The AMD Navi 33 GPU is going to power the Radeon RX 7600 series graphics cards and would be the third and only chip of the RDNA 3 lineup that utilizes a monolithic design.
The Navi 33 GCD features 2 Shader Engines and each Shader Engine has 2 Shader Arrays (2 per SE / 4 in total). This rounds up to 16 WGP's or 32 Compute Units for a total of 2048 cores which is the same core count as the Navi 23
