AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB Graphics Card Official: 16 GB & Full Navi 32 GPU For $499 US, Faster Than RTX 4070
AMD has unveiled its Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB graphics card which is designed to tackle the RTX 4070 at a price of $499 US.
The AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT is one of the two RDNA 3 GPUs being announced today that comes with the Navi 32 GPU. This graphics card is aimed at Enthusiast-Class 1440P gaming and features all the goodies that you'd expect from the Radeon software suite.
In terms of specifications, the AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB graphics card features 60 Compute Units or 3840 stream processors. The graphics card reaches up to 2430 Hz boost clocks which can provide up to 37 TFLOPs of FP32 Compute horsepower. There are also 60 RT Accelerator cores, 120 AI accelerator units, and 96 ROPs for this specific Navi 32 SKU. The graphics chip features a TBP of 263W.
Memory specifications include 16 GB GDDR6 memory which operates at pin speeds of up to 19.5 Gbps across a 256-bit wide bus interface. This provides the card with 624 GB/s but there's also 64 MB of Infinity Cache which provides increased effective bandwidth. The graphics card will feature a brand new dual-slot and dual-fan reference cooling solution along with custom variants.
In terms of performance, the AMD Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB graphics card is said to compete with NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 4070 12 GB solution. It offers up to 23% better performance & 3.5% average performance bump over its competition. The card excels in standard rasterization performance but ends up slower when ray tracing is involved. The testing was done by AMD itself & the RT titles that were used are mostly favorable to RDNA 3 hardware with the likes of Cyberpunk 2077 & Hogwarts Legacy not shown with RT enabled.
Once again, AMD aims the Radeon RX 7800 XT as a graphics card that offers 60+ FPS on average
