AMD NAVI would see three video card models, $249 RX 3080 close to RTX 2070

AMD NAVI would see three video card models, $249 RX 3080 close to RTX 2070

Quite a bit of information leaked onto the web over the last day or so, whether or not that information is correct remains to be seen. However, more info surfaced and it entails the pending GPU launch from AMD, based on 7nm NAVI.

Youtuber AdoredTV once again spreads out quite a bit of information about the next generation Zen processors (Ryzen 3000 ZEN2) however at the end of the video the end of the video, the Youtuber spreads word about another leak regarding AMD's future GPUs, codenamed Navi.

If the information is correct this line-up will exist out of three graphics card series to replace the current Polaris generation mainly. The naming would be 'RX 3000 series', opposed to RX 600. We'll quickly take you through the three products. 

The Radeon RX 3060 would be the entry-level card and would have 4 GB GDDR6. Here I have reason to doubt, GDDR6 is a new type of memory that is very fast and new always is expensive. it would make little sense to include it onto an entry-level product So that raises a red flag as far as I am concerned. The product would sit in the $130 range 

The second product would be the Radeon RX 3070, which replaces the RX 570. It would operate at Vega 56 performance at merely a TDPof 120 watts. IT gets 8 GB GDDR6 and would costs at $200 at minimum.

The higher end card would be the RX 3080, and also has 8 GB of GDDR6. At 150 watts it would be about 15% faster than the Vega 64 which is RTX 2070 territory. This card is tagged at $ 250 (which seems too cheap to be true).

We cannot vouch for the info that is spread, and as mentioned I do see red flags here. So as to what extent and how valid this information is we cannot tell. So please read and absorb this with a super big disclaimer in mind, the info could be incorrect. Extreme caution is recommended.

It is likely we'll hear a bit more in January from the CEO of AMD, Lisa Su, at CES.

A whole new generation, at 7nm to boot, and the best they can do is +15%?
Either thats very sad, or very untrue.

I wonder if Nvidia will compete then with the prices?

I don't see myself switching from a 1080TI to any of the leaked cards... I hope they push for more than +15% on top of Vega 64.

A 250$ 150w mid range card that's 10-15% faster than Vega 64 is sad? WTF are you on about LUL
This is literally a dream GPU, if true.

If the best they can do is make a card to compete with a 2070, then yes, thats very sad.

Well it all depends on price, if its 2070 performance at $250 USD, that's 2070 performance at 1060 6gb cost (at least here in Australia), which would be a major win, that's if you can take these prices and specs seriously, which I'm not, as always ill wait till there are actual products before I judge anything.

But yeah people gotta stop thinking that AMD need to compete with Nvidia's top end, they don't, they just need to make a product that has good performance and good price, and a product that performs at 2070 speeds for 1060 cost is EXACTLY THAT! (if its true, we will have to wait and see).

We talk about mid-range GPU that majority of gamers are care about. Around the same performance for half the price is not bad. Whether it true or not is different topic.

I dont think they will price it at $249. They could easily price it at $299-349 and it will still fly off the shelves. Remember, it would be going up against a $499-549 card (2070). If they do price it at $249, thats insane. What sort of margins can they get out of such a high performing card with 8gb GDDR6?

lol thanks mate, yeah sometimes we all get a little caught up in the theoretical new tech and forget we have nothing to actually judge yet, its important to remember this all means nothing until we get something physical to actually test.

Maybe I'll get bashed now for what's to follow by some fanboys, but... if they can make a card that performs like mentioned above, at half the price, they still shouldn't do it. They should charge those 50€ more, since that money would be very well placed in GPU R&D, exactly how Nvidia does it. THEN AMD will catch up long term, and stable. And that would be a good thing, going for the market share (and technological matching against Nvidia) they had with the HD6000 / 7000 cards.

It's not just you, I too do that, and many others also. It's a way to kill off time, but people should remember that everything we read is one thing, a true benchmark after release is another ;)

well the RX 580 consumes 185W while the new equivalent consumes a mere 75W!, that's insane! that's 60% power reduction for the same performance

They focus the bigger market. the super high end is a very small market.
