It looks like AMD's refreshing its RX 6000 series with 6 nm S-series variants
Rumour has it that AMD's working on enhanced editions of their Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards. These new GPUs are based on TSMC's 6 nm lithography technology, a more performant, and more efficient version of today's 7 nm node.
Videocardz has reported that AMD will be revealing "AMD Radeon RX 6000S Mobile Graphics", and it is possible that there will also be RX 6000S series discrete GPUs.
TSMC's 6 nm node is IP compatible with their 7 nm technology, making AMD's shift to 6 nm a relatively simple process. 6 nm can deliver users an 18% boost in logic density over 7 nm, but AMD's likely to use 6 nm to boost the RX 6000 series' performance, not its density.
AMD's rumoured RX 6000S series graphics cards should deliver higher clock speeds and higher levels of efficiency than their RX 6000 series counterparts. This makes the RX 6000S series especially useful within the notebook market, where power efficiency is a critical factor.
Intel's plans to tap TSMC to create its ARC Alchemist series GPUs. These GPUs are due to be launched in early 2022. Now it looks like these GPUs will need to compete with updated Radeon RX 6000 series CPUs.
While Videocardz has not revealed a launch date for AMD's RX 6000S series GPUs, AMD are likely to discuss them at CES 2022. Should 6nm deliver AMD an ample performance boost, AMD will be happy to showcase how these new GPUs compare to Nvidia's RX 30 series.
You can join the discussion on AMD's rumoured RX 6000S series GPUs on the OC3D Forums.

the RTX 2060 12GB is speculated to be only sold to miners.
it seems no reviewer has a card, nvidia does not promote them.
they are not listed.Quote
