With the introduction of the specialized Radeon Pro W7000 Series GPU lineup by AMD, there's a conjecture by ASCII.jp that the mainstream GPU Radeon RX 7800 XT could share similar technical specifications with the W7800. This assumption holds ground as historically, AMD has often shared specs between the Radeon Pro Series and the Radeon RX Series, despite targeting different applications and workloads.Taking a cue from the previous generation, the Radeon Pro W6900X shared the same processing core configuration with the RX 6900 XT, albeit with double the graphics memory capacity. If this trend persists, the Radeon RX 7800 XT is likely to feature similar technical specifications as the Radeon Pro W7800, meaning it could come equipped with up to 70 CUs and a total of 4480 Stream Processors. The looming question is whether AMD will employ the Navi 31 GPU for the RX 7800 Series, akin to how Navi 21 powers the RX 6800 Series, or not. Similar to how the Radeon RX 6700 utilizes the Navi 32 GPU, it's highly probable that the RX 7700 Series will feature Navi 32, although the exact timeline remains uncertain. For now, insights from igor’s LAB suggest that the Radeon RX 7600 might make an appearance at Computex 2023.
The Radeon Pro W7800 comes equipped with 4 Memory Chiplet Dies, boasting a 256-bit width, delivering a graphics capacity of 32 GB. Thus, in hypothetical terms, the Radeon RX 7800 XT would feature a 16 GB graphics memory, alongside a 64 MB Infinity Cache. With the GPU being Navi 31 trimmed down, the Radeon RX 7800 XT offers performance on par or even surpassing the RTX 4070 Ti while sporting a larger memory. The RX 7800 variant may be reduced to 60 CUs (3849 cores), maintaining a 16 GB memory with a 256-bit bus. Further down the line, we have the Radeon RX 7700 XT with 48 CUs.According to ASCII.jp, the Radeon RX 7700 XT is slated to debut at least 2 months after the RX 7800 XT, with respective prices likely around 649 USD for the RX 7800 XT and 449 USD for the RX 7700 XT. The MSRP of the RTX 4070 Ti stands at 799 USD. If the RX 7800 XT indeed hits the $650 mark, it would present a significant advantage for Team Red: more powerful, larger memory, albeit lacking DLSS 3 and facing limitations in ray tracing.Visit ASCII.jp for more details.
