Recently, NVIDIA has almost completed the puzzle of the RTX 40 series, leaving only entry-level graphics cards. AMD is naturally preparing to use its big moves. In other words, mid-range graphics cards are usually the most attractive to gamers. Only with relatively affordable prices and excellent performance can they compete in this market. Interestingly, the AMD German website recently made a small mistake. The website refers to the RX 7600 product page as RX 7600 XT in some places. This problem may be an editing problem on the front end of the web page, but it also makes many players who are watching graphics cards question whether this RX 7600 XT really exists, and is AMD ready to launch it to compete with the RTX 4060/4060 Ti?
AMD currently has the RX 7600 graphics card. Although it is mid-priced, its performance is a bit poor, and it is almost like a close friend of the RTX 4060. Dissatisfaction with the performance of the RX 7600 gradually evolved into expectations for the RX 7600 XT. However, at this stage, AMD may only consider the RAM version of RX 7600, so RX 7600 XT has become the expectation of some players for AMD’s true mid-range card.
RX 7600 XT is still in the rumor stage, AMD German website made a big mistake
In theory, more display memory can increase performance to a certain extent, but bigger is not always better. A graphics card with average performance, even if it has an ultra-high display memory capacity, may not be better than a high-end card. But sometimes the game will ask the graphics card for more display memory due to scene or image quality requirements. At this time, if there is enough display memory to feed the game, it will naturally achieve good performance.
Let’s digress and let’s get back to the RX 7600 XT. AMD Germany’s mistakes this time can be big or small. For example, in fact, the graphics card model only has two more characters, which may be caused by grammatical errors or translation problems. It may even be due to an accidental typo. After all, XT is a commonly used suffix for AMD graphics cards, and it is indeed possible to misuse it.
However, the graphics card model is actually not wrong even one word. RX and RTX are graphics card brands from different companies, and RX 7600 and RX 7800 are different graphics cards. Adding an XT is even more valuable. Judging from the information currently available, the RX 7600 XT may be equipped with 10~12 GB of display memory with a bandwidth of 128 bits, a higher core count and clock speed, and may even have an additional 16GB variant. Regarding the release time, it is speculated that it will be launched in the second half of 2023 this year.
In terms of pricing, the RX 7600 XT is currently predicted to be between $330 and $380. Referring to this price range, the Taiwan road price may be around 12,000. The theoretical performance of this card should be similar to the RTX 4060 Ti (perhaps excluding NVIDIA’s proud light tracing function). However, the Intel Arc A770 and AMD’s previous generation RX 6700 XT 12GB are more of a serious challenger to this card.
Whether the RX 7600 XT actually exists is a serious question. Because AMD is slower than NVIDIA. NVIDIA has almost finished releasing the RTX 40 series, and it is estimated that only the RTX 4050, a more competitively priced mid-range card, is left. If AMD still has something up its sleeve, it might be the RX 7600 XT. This is why a typo on a web page can cause such a big reaction.
The RX 7600 is known to be based on a Navi 33 GPU with a complete architecture. If the RX 7600 XT is to be launched, it will naturally have to be replaced with a better GPU. For example Navi 32 or Navi 31. Considering that the RX 7000 family still lacks the RX 7800 and RX 7700, this speculation seems very convincing.
