Radeon RX 7000: A week before the announcement, the main point of the rumors

AMD will be holding its “Together We Advance Games” conference on its YouTube channel on November 3 at 10 PM. The company led by Lisa Su should introduce its new series of consumer graphics cards out there, the Radeon RX 7000. According to various rumors from usually reliable sources, this series will be the first to offer a chiplet approach. Thus, as with its Ryzen processors, AMD can offer a graphics chip with several blocks: one containing the GPU, the console and all the management blocks and the other containing the graphics memory and the Infinity Cache.

An interesting approach will not be the only novelty. AMD intends to significantly increase graphics performance. This will require integrating a large number of compute modules with 10752 stream processors on the Radeon RX 7900 XT and up to 12288 SP on the Radeon RX 7950 XT. Recent rumors also point to the possibility of a naming change with the return of the XTX name – which has been abandoned since the 2006 Radeon X1900 XTX – at least for the more high-end model that will take the Radeon RX 7900 XTX name. To fit many GPU computing units, AMD will use a 5nm scaling process, just as Nvidia does in the GeForce RTX 40.

On the graphics memory side, the two high-end models will integrate 20 to 24 GB of GDDR6 graphics memory (320 or 384-bit bus). Everything will work on a power envelope of 330 and 420 watts, respectively. Like Nvidia, AMD has been tempted to ditch power consumption. On the other hand, new Radeons should not incorporate a PCIe 5 12VHPWR power connector. This will undoubtedly give the AMD marketing team some leeway to talk about the few setbacks Nvidia experienced on the GeForce RTX 4090.
