AMD held an event today where it announced its upcoming PC graphics cards, the Radeon RX 7900 XTX and Radeon RX 7900 XT. The new cards use the RDNA 3 architecture and will be released on December 13th.
Pricing may actually come as a surprise to those used to recent announcements, with the Radeon RX 7900 XTX going for $999 and the Radeon RX 7900 XT going for $899. Two cards also come with more video memory: 24GB GDDR6 for the XTX and 20GB for the XT.
The XTX will also ship with 96 compute units, 96 beam accelerators, 2300MHz gaming frequency (the expected GPU clock speed when running “typical” gaming applications), 96MB of Infinity cache. The XT will have 80 compute units and beam accelerators, a 2000 MHz gaming clock, and 80 MB of Infinity cache.
In terms of performance, XTX promises up to 139fps in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, 98fps in God of War, 93fps in Red Dead Redemption 2, 109fps in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, 138fps / s in Resident Evil Village with ray tracing and 135 fps in Doom Eternal with ray tracing, all at 4K resolution and maximum settings. Both cards also support DisplayPort 2.1.
