The new naming convention adopts an X0X0 pattern, with X being a wildcard, in contrast to AMD’s existing XX00 scheme. Likewise, to further distinguish between architectures, future RDNA 3.5 GPUs (e.g., Strix Halo) should launch under the RX 8000 family with the RX 9000 series reserved for RDNA 4 GPUs. From what we can understand, the successor to the RX 7600 should be named the RX 9060. Another interesting aspect is that these leaks position the RX 9070 XT as the flagship RDNA 4 offering, not the RX 9080 XT (Legacy name: RX 8800 XT). This proposes that AMD might have not only renamed its offerings but remapped them as well (RX 8800 XT -> RX 9070 XT) though we cannot be certain until official confirmation from the chip maker.
Further information suggests that AMD could be prepping to launch more RDNA 3 (RX 7000) GPUs for mobile and desktop. The leaked data indicates that a potential RX 7750, RX 7650, and RX 7650 GRE refresh is on the cards side by side with RX 7650S, RX 7750S, RX 7650M, and RX 7650M XT discrete Radeon GPUs for laptops. The leaker points out further in the thread that the RX 9060 and RX 9050 will adopt a 128-bit memory bus with a 96-bit interface planned for the low-end RX 9040. We’ve prepared a small chart to reflect this data with expected specifications.
Team Red might also introduce RDNA 4 mobile GPUs next month. The data suggests that AMD is preparing the following discrete GPUs based on RDNA 4: the RX 9070M XT, RX 9070M, and the RX 9070S, though we’re still in the dark regarding specifications. Moreover, a French retailer has just put up listings for the RX 9070 XT and RX 9070; further substantiating this leak.
