AMD reportedly preps Radeon RX 9070 GRE GPU
AMD’s reportedly working on another Radeon RX 9070 series graphics card
According to ithome, AMD is preparing to release a new RDNA 4 GPU called the Radeon RX 9070 GRE. This graphics card will sit below AMD’s RX 9070 and RX 9070 XT, catering to lower-cost segments of the GPU market.
This new AMD GPU reportedly features a “better price-performance ratio” than AMD’s upcoming Radeon RX 9060 XT. However, specifications for AMD’s new GRE graphics card remain unknown.
Our expectations of this new GRE series GPU are that it will be a 12GB RDNA 4 GPU based on AMD’s Navi 48 silicon. Essentially, it will be a cut-down version of the RX 9070/RX 9070 XT with a 192-bit memory bus and fewer active compute units. Currently, it is unknown if AMD’s RX 9070 GRE is intended to be a worldwide product release or a China-only GPU model.
AMD’s RX 9060 XT is expected to be an 8 or 16GB GPU with a 128-bit memory bus. This GPU will use AMD’s smaller Navi 44 RDNA 4 silicon, placing it far below AMD’s RX 9070 series GPUs. As such, AMD’s new XX70-series GRE GPU can exploit a gap in AMD’s GPU lineup.
If it has 12GB of memory, AMD’s new GRE GPU will be a direct competitor to Nvidia’s RTX 5070. It is also likely to launch with aggressive pricing,
