Images show Sapphire Radeon RX 6700 video cards with 10GB memory
Sapphire appears to be releasing an unannounced Radeon RX 6700 desktop video card soon. That claims tech website Cowcotland. That card would have 10GB of memory and fewer compute units than the Radeon RX 6700 XT. The release was supposed to take place on June 9.
Cowcotland publishes images of the alleged Sapphire Radeon RX 6700 models. The manufacturer seems to be coming up with a variant in the Pulse series, among other things. Another image shows an as-yet unnamed model. According to the French tech website, the card will receive a Navi 22 GPU with 36 compute units, which amounts to 2304 stream processors. For example, the higher positioned RX 6700 XT has 40 cu’s with a total of 2560 stream processors.
The Radeon RX 6700 would thus have the same configuration as the RX 6700M for laptops. The card would have 10GB of GDDR6 memory with a speed of 16Gbit/s. The bus width is therefore 160bit for a memory bandwidth of 320GB/s. Cowcotland also talks about a game clock of 2330MHz with a boost frequency of up to 2495MHz. Both Sapphire models have an 8-pin power connection. However, the website does not mention tdp.
According to Cowcotland, both video cards will be released on Thursday, June 9. There is talk of a sales price from 569 euros.
