AMD Releases the Radeon RX 9060 Non-XT GPU Officially
The final specifications of AMD’s upcoming Radeon RX 9060 non-XT GPU SKU were allegedly leaked yesterday, and based on our coverage, it looks to be a device that is quite close to its XT sister. AMD has, however, formally published a product page with comprehensive details, giving us something somewhat different from what we had anticipated. The card has 112 Texture Mapping Units, 1,792 Streaming Processors, 64 ROPs, and 28 RDNA 4 Compute Units. Compared to the Radeon RX 9060 XT SKU, which has 32 CUs for 2,048 SPs, this is a major downgrade. At first glance, what we thought would be a 32 CU design was actually a cut-down version, probably from a lower bin, constructed on the same Navi 44 XL die.
In order to provide 288 GB/s of bandwidth, AMD uses 8 GB of GDDR6 memory running at 18 Gbps on a 128-bit bus. A 132 W TBP board can accommodate all of that, and a 450 W PSU is required at minimum. According to AMD, the card is a 1080p powerhouse that can achieve high frame rates at extreme settings. AMD claims that the card can run 108 frames per second in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, 98 frames per second in Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, 153 frames per second in DOOM Eternal (RT), 67 frames per second in Dragon Age: The Veilguard, 188 frames per second in Formula One 24, 106 frames per second in Horizon Zero Dawn Remastered, 120 frames per second in God of War: Ragnarok, and 100 frames per second in Resident Evil 4 (RT) on its website. Without the aid of any frame generation technology, all of these were tested at native 1080p extreme settings. Unknown are the final clock speeds, costs, and availability.
