AMD is testing the Radeon RX 9060 XT with 18 Gbps GDDR6

A little birdy told me that AMD is testing the Radeon RX 9060 XT with 18 Gbps GDDR6.

This makes sense as AMD has bought all the available 20 Gbps GDDR6 market and is facing supply constraints.

Since GDDR6 is now considered "last generation", manufacturers are unlikely to increase production capacity.

Furthermore, with NVIDIA moving away from the GeForce RTX 4060 and GeForce RTX 4060 Ti, an additional supply of 18 Gbps GDDR6 has become available.
 
So new cards will be made with the slower vram or will they be releasing a non xt with it?
 
They need to use the slower memory for wide scale availability 9070 GRE (cut down 9070 with 192 bit and 12 GB).

Undercut the RTX 5070 by $100 to fill the large gap in AMDs lineup.
 
Leaks say no on the disabled CUs. Hence my expectation that a 9050 is coming.
Some say the opposite (and seem to be from an AMD press release the way they are phrasing it):

AMD hasn’t shared the full specifications of the RX 9060 yet, but it will be based on the same RDNA 4 architecture shared by the RX 9070 XT and the RX 9060 XT. This GPU has 28 RDNA 4 compute units, down from 32 on the RX 9060 XT

Leaks is leaks! We'll see when it happens. At any rate I expect AMD will launch some sort of cut-down version to use up the slightly defective chips because why not? Could be a 9060 or a 9050. Stil think the 8GB 9060XT is getting shit canned though.

28 CU seem official:

oem only, so the door in the DIY market for the 9050 (or keeping the 9060xt 8 in the wild) are still open.
