With only a few weeks to go until AMD's RDNA 2 launch event, the full specifications for its first Radeon RX 6000 series boards may already have appeared online.
As part of its latest buying guide, Newegg Insider - a company blog listed on the U.S. retailer's front page - listed the alleged specifications for AMD Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards.
Although these specifications have not yet been confirmed, they suggest AMD is preparing three GPUs for its October 28th launch event: RX 6700 XT, Radeon RX 6800 XT and Radeon RX 6900 XT. The latter, says Newegg Insider, will be the best performing of the three GPUs with 5120 streaming processors (SP), 16 GB of GDDR6 memory on a 256-bit memory bus and 512 Gbps memory bandwidth.
According to the blog, the Radeon RX 6800 XT will feature 3840 SP, 12 GB of GDDR6 memory and 385 Gbps of maximum memory bandwidth, while the Radeon RX 6700 XT will have 2560 SP, 6 GB of GDDR6 memory - 2 GB less than the Radeon RX 5700 XT.
It also suggests that all three of AMD's RDNA 2-based graphics cards will have a base clock of 1500 MHz, which seems unlikely. For example, a recent macOS firmware leak, reported by Videocardz, suggested that RDNA 2 GPUs will have clock speeds between 2050 and 2500 MHz.
The Newegg report also suggests that the Radeon RX 6900 XT, RX 6800 XT and RX 6700 XT will have TDP values of 300W, 200W and 150W respectively.
Although the accuracy of this latest leak remains unclear, it won't be long before we find out what AMD's Radeon RX 6000 graphics cards have in store. The company is expected to officially launch the video cards at an event on October 28th.
