PowerColor RX 5600 XT series graphics cards appear in ECC database

Right now, AMD’s RX 5600 XT is rumoured to be a cut-down version of AMD’s Radeon RX 5700 series, shipping with fewer stream processors and a smaller 192-bit memory bus. This places this graphics card between the RX 5500 XT and the Radeon RX 5700. The RX 5600 XT’s memory bus size can be guessed because of the 6GB VRAM listing of PowerColor’s RX 5600 XT models, as a 6GB graphics card requires a memory bus size of this calibre. It also fits neatly between the 128-bit bus of the RX 5500 XT and the 256-bit memory bus of the RX 5700 series. 

The RX 5600 XT will compete with Nvidia’s GTX 1660 Super and GTX 1660 Ti, sitting within a price range of between £200 and £260. Any higher or lower would place this graphics card too close to RX 5500 XT and RX 5700 territory. 

AMD’s RX 5600 XT is expected to be revealed in January 2020, with PowerColor’s recently revealed RX 5700 ITX design likely forming the basis of the company’s baseline RX 5600 XT, assuming the graphics card is indeed a cut-down RX 5700 series GPU.  

Gigabyte have also had several RX 5600 XT series graphics cards listed on the ECC website.
