AMD RDNA 4 “Navi 4X” Lineup Rumored To Not Include Any High-End GPUs

wccftech.com:

AMD RDNA 4 "Navi 4X" GPUs won't be featuring any high-end GPU configurations if this latest rumor from @Kepler_L2 is to be believed.

This rumor should be taken with a huge grain of salt but @Kepler_L2 has previously covered GPU information that has been legit. So regarding the information, it is said that AMD's upcoming Navi 4X GPU lineup which will be utilizing the RDNA 4 graphics architecture won't have any SKUs for the high-end segment.

Navi4 lineup will not have any high-end GPUs

Think of it like RDNA1 or Polaris generation.

The lineup is said to be similar to the 1st generation RDNA GPUs which featured a top Navi 10 SKU but no real high-end SKU aimed at the enthusiast or ultra-enthusiast segment such as the Navi 21 and Navi 31 chips. For those thinking that AMD's RDNA 3.5 GPUs will take up the charge of the high-end Radeon graphics cards, well that isn't the case either as that SKU is primarily designed for iGPUs for Ryzen 8000 CPUs & APUs.

But there's another interesting proposition to be made here. Considering AMD's reliance on MCM technologies, it is likely that instead of making a large monolithic die, AMD could just fuse two mid-tier dies together which would save up manufacturing costs and also allow for better yields and an efficient design. Although this is just a rumor AMD already implements an MCM solution for its MCDs so moving that over to GCDs would be the next logical step. However, this is all but a rumor for now.

Currently, GPUs for PCs are steadily evolving from RDNA 1 to RDNA 2 and RDNA 3, and we promise to evolve to RDNA 4 with even higher performance in the near future.
