AMD RX 8000: First information on the next generation of graphics cards has emerged

A leaker describes the brand new Radeon GPUs as finances kings – however it stays to be seen whether or not the specs talked about are true

There are new leaks about AMD. At the least that’s what a Github supply   from 22.11.2023 suggests. The post in question contains IDs that originate from a Linux patch for the LLVM project – a compiler system.

Particularly, it issues graphics playing cards with the designations GFX1200 and GFX1201 These numbers are so-called Graphics Compute IDs, i.e. designations that serve to determine the cardboard.

What does this imply?

The provisional names doubtlessly enable conclusions to be drawn concerning the respective structure based mostly on the IDs of beforehand launched graphics playing cards. From this, it’s also potential to infer which options the playing cards may someday have.

Primarily based on the info,

(Videocardz) assumes that the soar from RDNA 3 to RDNA 4 structure means a serious revision than, for instance, from RNDA 1 to RDNA 2. Due to the designation, it may also be assumed that that is the RDNA 4 structure.

AMD RDNA architectures by designation:

• GFX101X = RDNA 1
• GFX103X = RDNA 2
• GFX11XX = RDNA 3
• GFX115X = RDNA 3.5
• GFX12XX = RDNA 4 (?)

How can these playing cards be categorized?

In accordance with Videocardz, the leaked GPUs are presumably Navi 44 and Navi 48, which usually tend to be within the entry-level or mid-range phase.

That is additionally indicated by the next video by leaker RedGamingTech, by which he refers back to the playing cards as Funds Kings . The title of the video already refers to this:

Within the video, the YouTuber additionally exhibits potential specs of each playing cards. At minute 5, he attributes two potential specs to the Navi-44 GPU:

First risk:

• 20 WGP (Workgroup Processor)
• 32 MB Infinity Cache
• 128-bit GDDR7
• PCI Gen 5 x8

Second possibility:

• 20 WGP
• 24 MB Infinity Cache
• 96-bit GDDR7
• PCIe Gen 5 x8

In accordance with RedGamingTech, there are additionally two conceivable variants for the Navi 48 GPU:

First possibility:

• 32 WGP
• 48 MB Infinity Cache
• 192-bit GDDR7
• PCI Gen 5 x16

Second possibility:

• 32 WGP
• 32 MB Infinity Cache
• 128-bit GDDR7
• PCI Gen 5 x8

The precise variety of shader items necessary for efficiency shouldn’t be clear from this, however assist for PCI Categorical 5.0 and the brand new GDDR7 reminiscence normal is

For comparability: AMD’s present RX 7600 depends on 32 compute items (the RDNA3 counterpart to the WGPs), 32 MByte Infinity Cache, 128-bit GDDR6 and PCI Categorical 4.0.

The primary RDNA4 graphics playing cards are anticipated to seem in round a yr on the earliest. The truth that RDNA4 is presently making extra concrete headlines with rumors about reasonably gradual fashions (albeit nonetheless very speculative) matches in with the overall expectations for RX 8000:

At the moment, it’s assumed that AMD is intentionally not serving the high-end phase with this era and is concentrating on the mid-range and entry-level class.

What do you consider this leak? Is it nonetheless far too early to see sufficient substance in it or may it’s a related trace for the long run? And do you assume that AMD will truly focus totally on mainstream fashions as an alternative of significantly costly GPUs with the RX 8000, as already suspected, or will Nvidia not depart the high-end phase with out a struggle?
