As promised a number of weeks in the past, AMD made some key gaming product bulletins throughout its 2025 Computex keynote, the spotlight of which is the launch of its Radeon RX 9060 XT. As anticipated, it is coming in two flavors—one with 16GB of GDDR6 reminiscence and a second SKU with 8GB of GDDR6 reminiscence. Let the mainstream GPU wars start.
AMD didn’t commit a ton of time throughout its keynote to the Radeon RX 9060 XT, nevertheless it did reveal a great chunk of baseline specs. It additionally shared particulars about pricing and when it would launch, and took some delicate digs at rival NVIDIA and it is current GeForce RTX 5060 launch.
Beginning with the specs, the Radeon RX 9060 XT is a mainstream SKU based mostly on AMD’s RDNA 4 structure. It options 29.7 billion transistors, 32 compute items (so 2,048 stream processors), 128 TMUs, 32 RT accelerators, and 64 AI accelerators that mix to ship as much as 821 TOPS of AI muscle (based mostly on INT4 Sparse).
The reference design requires a 2,530MHz Recreation clock and as much as a 3,130MHz increase frequency. As for the reminiscence configuration, AMD says the 9060 XT is utilizing “as much as 20Gbps” reminiscence chips linked to a 128-bit bus. Each the 16GB and 8GB mannequin ship as much as 320GB/s of reminiscence bandwidth. The playing cards additionally function 32MB of Infinite Cache.
We now reside in a world the place graphics card MSRPs are about as significant as a display door on a submarine. That stated, AMD has set the MSRP at $349 for the 16GB Radeon RX 9060 XT and $299 for the 8GB mannequin. AMD would not plan to supply any of its personal reference fashions, so it is going to be totally as much as its {hardware} companions to stay to (or not keep on with) these value factors, based mostly on their customized accoutrements.
Based mostly on the MSRP, although, AMD is pitching the Radeon RX 9060 XT because the “world’s greatest graphics card underneath $350” and designed for “elite 1440p gaming.”
We clearly will not know the way properly it really performs till we are able to run our personal checks. Nevertheless, AMD claims the Radeon RX 9060 XT is 6% quicker throughout 40 recreation titles versus the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti “with out upscaling or body era.” In video games like Spider-Man 2 and Name of Responsibility, AMD claims the 9060 XT’s lead jumps to over 20%.
AMD additional claims that in ray-traced titles like Hogwarts Legacy, the 16GB model of the Radeon RX 9060 XT provides it an “even greater benefit” in comparison with NVIDIA’s comparable providing. Summed up, AMD is claiming 15% higher gaming efficiency per greenback than each the 8GB and 16GB model of the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti.
“The brand new Radeon RX 9060 XT GPUs are powered by the superior AMD RDNA 4 structure and ship easy, responsive 1440p gaming with FSR 4 ML-enhanced upscaling, and accelerated ray tracing. For individuals who construct worlds, inform tales by pixels, or chase victory in esports, these playing cards provide the efficiency and intelligence to raise each expertise,” AMD says.
How will these declare stand as much as real-world testing, and what affect will upscaling have on AMD’s efficiency comparisons? Keep tuned—the Radeon RX 9060 XT releases on June 5.
