AMD confirms to release cheaper Radeon 7000 cards before the end of June
AMD has confirmed to release cheaper Radeon 7000 cards before the end of June. Until now, only the RX 7900 XT and XTX were released. Recently a rumor came out about an RX 7700 XT and 7800 XT.
AMD says in a discussion of the quarterly figures that shipments of its graphics cards increased. “We saw strong sales of our high-end Radeon 7900 XTX GPUs in the first quarter, and we are on track to expand our RDNA 3 portfolio with the release of new mainstream Radeon 7000 GPUs this quarter.”
AMD thus confirms that new GPUs will arrive this quarter. There was a rumor about this recently. The Radeon RX 7800 XT is a Navi 32 GPU with 60 compute units. The video card would also get 16GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256bit memory bus, in addition to four mcd chiplets for a total of 64MB of Infinity Cache. The tbp would be 285W. The Radeon RX 7700 XT will be a lower positioned desktop video card with a Navi 32 GPU. The video card would have 54 CUs and 12GB of memory on a narrower 192-bit memory bus. The video card would also feature three additional chiplets for 48MB of Infinity Cache. The video card would get a 225W tbp. The Radeon RX 7900 GPUs came out at the end of last year.
AMD turned its first loss in years last quarter. Sales amounted to $ 5.4 billion, 9 percent less than a year ago. Net income amounted to -145 million euros, compared to +786 million euros last year. According to the company itself, it’s not going bad. “We did well in the first quarter,” said CEO Lisa Su. “We are delivering better-than-expected sales and better quarterly earnings in a mixed demand environment.”
