Description:
According to brand new rumors, AMD might be planning on a refresh of its Radeon RX 6000 GPUs, called the RX 6000s.
FULL STORY ======================================================================
Recent rumors have been circulating about a refresh for the AMD Radeon RX
6000 graphics cards , which may still be based on RDNA 2.
Apparently, the new series will be called the AMD Radeon RX 6000S Mobile Graphics, according to a source from VideoCardz . This is the same source
that previously revealed the AMD 4800S Desktop Kit.
Of course, not all of the RX 6000 line would be refreshed, which makes sense since both the RX 6500M and RX 6300M havent been released yet. This also
means that desktop GPUs might not be refreshed either, and its unclear
whether they would use TSMCs N6 node if so.
If the Radeon RX 6000S series does turn out to be real, it would most likely launch alongside the Ryzen 6000 Rembrandt series early next year. AMDs CES 2022 keynote is coming up on January 4, so that would be a good time for the company to announce such a refresh. Analysis: What would the RDNA2 refresh mean?
It seems that AMD could refresh its Navi 2X GPUs using TSMC N6 process technology, according to Greymon55 . Not only could they be a part of the
6000 series refresh but even a refresh for the Radeon RX 7000 desktop series, which would fit in with an entry-level to mid-range market.
The AMD RDNA2 TSMC N6 refresh should offer an 18% higher logic density compared to the N7, as well as improve power efficiency, clock speeds,
yields, and shorten production cycles.
Of course this is all based on conjecture and rumors, so keep your expectations in check until AMD officially makes an announcement.
