AMD budget GPU listed with twice the memory of RX 7600 and RTX 4060 — RX 7600 XT with 16GB GDDR6​

AMD's rumored RX 7600 XT has been spotted on the Eurasian Economic Union customs database (or EEC for short) by hardware leaker Harukaze5719.
RX 7600 XT could carry 16GB of VRAM like the RTX 4060 Ti

As unlikely as it sounds that AMD would make Radeon RX 7600 XT GPUs with such an overkill memory solution, it nevertheless is in the database. That doesn't mean a 16GB Radeon RX 7600 XT is confirmed. AMD may backtrack or even already has backtracked on offering a 16GB variant, or it could be that this listing is a typo. Gigabyte does offer an Aorus RX 7800 XT OC with 16GB of memory, and changing that '8' to a '6' would be enough to give us a very confusing graphics card.

There have been previous listings for the Radeon RX 7600 XT in the EEC database, but these listings mentioned 10GB and 12GB variants of the Radeon RX 7600 XT. Concerning product coverage, 10GB would make the most sense since it would allow the Radeon RX 7600 XT to slot in right between the Radeon RX 7600 and the Radeon RX 7700 XT, with 8GB and 12GB of memory, respectively. 16GB would, however, jump over the Radeon RX 7700 XT and put the Radeon RX 7600 XT on par with the Radeon RX 7800 XT.

RX 7600 XT to launch next month. No specs available

The Radeon RX 7600 XT exists.

In the VideocardZ report As mentioned, the Russian certification website ECC(Eurasian Economic Communications) includes a list of Chinese display card brands named Arktek, which are not yet available on AMD such as Radeon RX 7600 XT, Radeon RX 7700, and Radeon RX 7800.

the Radeon RX 7600 XT is indeed on AMD's product planning and is expected to be available on the week 22 January, and at the same time, we will also see the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super.

As for 3 products, such as Radeon RX 7700, Radeon RX 7800 and Radeon RX 7900 XT, none of them are currently on AMD's existing planning list, according to our reliable information.

In other words, AMD in the first half of 2024 is only expected to have a new Radeon RX 7600 XT, there will be other accidents, most people are on vacation, there should be too many updates, that is to say, AMD still maintains the planning of 6 display cards (GRE) at this stage. In the second half of 2024, we may see the introduction of RDNA 4, which supports PCIe 5.0, which will delay RDNA 4 until 2025 if an accident occurs.

The information in the ECC database is not necessarily accurate, but it can be used as a reference and we also confirm that there will be no MBA(Made by AMD) card available for media testing at AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT.

All have assumed/presumed that the 7600 XT, if released, would be the last desktop RDNA 3 Card (not counting future RDNA 3.5 refreshes of 7900 XT/XTX), But, imo, depending on when 7nm RDNA 2 (Navi 22/21) sell out & how much stocks of RDNA 3 (Navi 32) have been ordered by AMD, & when RDNA 4 can be expected (anywhere from June 2024 to Dec 2024), AMD might have a sizeable gap in the $250-$450 segment that can be filled by one more GPU (say a 48 CU Navi 32).

If that is the case that would likely launch as 12GB 7700 48 CU sometime in H2 2024. (Assuming RDNA 4 delayed to end of this year or beginning of next year)

$300 would be ideal for a 16GB 7600 XT

But the rumours say there is no Made By AMD board this time. Hence partners likely to launch in the range of $300 — $350

I believe the 12 GB 7700 has already reached $400
The 16 GB 6800 was also sold for as low as $380

Other data shared by AMD compares the RX 6700 XT to Nvidia’s $299 RTX 4060. AMD shows the RX 6700 XT trading blows with the RTX 4060 at both 1080p and 1440p in a handful of games, but we’ll have to wait on full reviews to see exactly how it compares.

Interesting. A second 8-pin power connector 🤔

Images of AMD's reference design show a slightly larger card than the regular 7600, with a second 8-pin power connector to provide the extra power (total board power increases from 165 W to 190 W).

AMD's provided performance figures show the 7600 XT outrunning the regular 7600 by between 5 and 10 percent in most titles, with one—Forza Horizon 5 with ray-tracing turned all the way up—showing a more significant jump of around 40 percent at 1080p and 1440p. Whether that kind of performance jump is worth the extra $60 depends on the games you play and how worried you are about the system requirements in future games.

CONFIRMED:

AMD’s reference design for the RX 7600 XT calls for two eight-pin PCIe power connectors as opposed to just the one on the RX 7600, which means more power is available. This is mostly beneficial for extreme overclocking, but AMD put some of that power to use to increase clock speeds as well. This only results in a 100MHz boost on the reference design, but AMD’s board partners will likely push this higher.

FAKE FRAMES FOR 1440P ???

You can already see the 7600 XT struggling to surpass 60 frames-per-second in cutting-edge PC games at 1440p in AMD’s slides, albeit with all available eye candy cranked to the max. And that’s with FSR 2 enabled in Starfield and Forza, too.

AMD has a handy-dandy trick up its sleeve though: Hypr-RX. This optional feature within the company’s Adrenalin Software suite is a singular switch that activates Radeon Software’s existing Radeon Super Resolution upscaling, Radeon Boost, and Radeon Anti-Lag technologies all in one go to drastically improve both frame rates and responsiveness in games.

On top of that, AMD’s DLSS 3 rival, dubbed FSR 3, is available in 20 announced games, while the underlying feature that powers FSR (AMD Fluid Motion Frames) is available at the driver level and can be used in thousands of games at will, unlike Nvidia’s DLSS 3. Giggity. That helps the Radeon RX 7600 XT supercharge performance, albeit with some potential small image quirks, though you still probably won’t want to pick this up solely for 1440p gaming.

Not that impressed for $329. Maybe in a few months when it drops to $300 or less. I want to see it up against the 6700 cards too.

Confusion again !!

An extra 25W is nothing, to be honest, and should mean that it will only require a single 8-pin PCIe power connector.

I say 'should' because it's not 100% clear in the various images of the third party models. There won't be a reference Radeon RX 7600 XT from AMD, just the likes of Sapphire, PowerColor, etc but I think it's safe to assume that you won't need a secondary power cable.

AMD is claiming higher performance for the RX 7600 XT over the base model, though. The biggest improvement from the data shared comes in Forza Horizon 5, where the XT model showed a 40% improvement at 1080p and a 45% improvement at 1440p. Other titles show much smaller improvements, however. In Starfield and The Last of Us Part I, for example, the XT model offers closer to a 17% jump.

It’s important to point out that all of the above games showed this level of a performance improvement with FidelityFX Super Resolution 2. In Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, the sole game AMD tested without FSR 2 at 1080p, the XT model was just 7% faster than the non-XT.

The Radeon RX 7600 XT is launching on January 24, 2024, and it also marks the date AMD Fluid Motion Frames leaves beta or 'technology preview' to become a part of Radeon's Adrenalin Edition software suite and its HYPR-RX package.

AMD Fluid Motion Frames leaves beta, joins HYPR-RX for all RDNA 2 and RDNA 3 owners

After months in beta and a few updates, AMD's driver level frame generation called Fluid Motion Frames, is officially becoming a part of the HYPR-RX suite.


With Fluid Motion Frames as part of the driver, Radeon RX 7000 and Radeon RX 6000 Series owners can now enable frame generation globally in any DirectX 11 or DirectX 12 title.

Is the AMD Radeon RX 7600 XT worth it?​

It’s frustratingly difficult to outright recommend the Radeon RX 7600 XT to most people, given that this should be the budget graphics card we’ve been clamoring for. It should provide better value than the Radeon RX 7600 in the long run, given its larger VRAM pool, but this feels less pronounced in the here and now. While you will see benefits in some games, others will only see marginal improvements.

The problem here is that the Radeon RX 7600 is basically just as good as the Radeon RX 7600 XT in most cases, give or take a few frames, making the latter’s higher cost a reason to pause. Then there’s the uncomfortable gap between it and the cheaper GeForce RTX 4060 in terms of ray tracing and upscaling quality, further hampering the appeal of what should be the budget king of sorts.

For those whose primary concern is non-ray traced gaming, however, the Radeon RX 7600 XT is the graphics card to opt for if your budget is limited, don’t plan to upgrade for a while, and couldn’t care less about upscaling. VRAM bottlenecks may not be so apparent yet on 8GB cards outside of ray tracing, but it won’t be long until we see more system requirements demand more memory from our graphics cards.

Should you buy the RTX 4060 or RX 7600 XT?​

It’s a tough choice between the RTX 4060 and RX 7600 XT. The extra VRAM provides nice peace of mind on the RX 7600 XT, but you trade some ray tracing performance and DLSS going with AMD. On the other end, the RTX 4060 definitely loses some battles, but it’s cheaper and has a better set of features overall.

Considering how close the GPUs are in terms of price and performance, you’ll have to make the final call depending on prices when you’re shopping. As things sit now, I recommend the RTX 4060 for most people. The 8GB of VRAM can sting, but you’ll only feel the effect of it in a small set of games like The Last of Us Part One. For that sacrifice, you’re getting better ray tracing performance in most titles, DLSS, and crucially, a lower price.

If you know you need 16GB of VRAM — whether for multiple monitors, large AI models, content creation, or even some particular game — and you don't want to spend a lot of money, the RX 7600 XT gets the job done. It won't be a super fast 16GB card, but not everyone wants that.

Across our extended 18-game test suite, there were only three games where the added memory proved beneficial at settings that were still viable: Forza Horizon 5, Spider-Man: Miles Morales, and Total War: Warhammer 3. Those all showed at least a 20% advantage compared to the RX 7600, though the last only evidenced that at 1440p.

Could future games increase VRAM use? Sure. We're already starting to see that happening, but with both the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X more or less targeting 12GB or less, 16GB is generally overkill. It's why the RX 6700 XT still looks reasonably promising. But then the 6700 XT doesn't have AV1 encoding support or enhanced AI features, which might be worth the slight loss in gaming performance.

https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/gpus/amd-radeon-rx-7600-xt-review/7
 
When deciding to buy the 16GB version of the RX 7600 series, what you're basically betting on is that in the next two or three years, more games are going to start acting like Forza does, even at relatively low resolutions like 1080p. It's not an unreasonable bet to make, given the rough and resource-hungry state of recent PC ports. But realistically, you'll end up being limited by the graphics silicon itself the vast majority of the time.

Intel's Arc A770, which has very similar power usage and is the only other way to get a new GPU in the low $300 price range with 16GB of RAM.

Intel's Arc card consistently beats AMD's ray-tracing performance, and it can come close to the 7600 XT's speed in DirectX 12 games, but DirectX 11 games, in particular, remain a weak point for the architecture even with the latest drivers installed.
