Thanks to hardware enthusiast momomo_us at X, the beans have been spilled about AMD's upcoming RX 9070 series. The leaked information suggests that the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 will seemingly carry 16GB of GDDR6 memory and offer a slight uptick in the SPs (Stream Processors) count compared to their RDNA 3 counterparts. As always, sprinkle salt over this leak, even though the leaker has a solid track record.
As a brief reminder, AMD introduced RDNA 4 at CES but was tight-lipped regarding specifications and performance. AMD has promised more details later this quarter despite numerous leaks suggesting a reveal this month. We grabbed a few snippets of Navi 48, the die at the heart of AMD's RX 9070 series, coming in at almost 390mm2. Many performance leaks allege the RX 9070 XT matches the RTX 4080 Super in raster and the RTX 4070 Ti Super in ray-tracing performance, but you should approach these claims skeptically.
