MSI Radeon RX 5600 XT MECH Series Leaks
Ah well, one more. Meet the RX 5600 XT MECH series from MSI, listed are an OC and non-OC model. The 7nm based product was listed having 36 compute units and 2304 stream processors, which is the RX 5700. The RX 5600XT has lower clock speeds and less memory.
As rumored it will be fitted with 6GB GDDR6, the memory speed of the RX 5600XT is listed at 12Gbit/s / 192-bit. Which offers 288 GB/s of bandwidth. In comparison, the RX 5700 has a memory speed of 14 Gbit/s with a 256-bit interface at 448GB/s.
- The MSI RX 5600 XT MECH OC will be clocked at 1185/1420 and 1600 MHz for base, game and boost modes.
- The MSI RX 5600 XT MECH non-OC features 1130 base, 1375 game and 1560 MHz boost clocks .
Both cards feature 2304 Stream Processors and 6GB GDDR6 12Gbps memory across a 192-bit interface. WEe assume that the non-OC model will thus be the reference clock product, and these thus might be the final retail reference clocks.

Well i am not sure about their pricing they have to fit it between the 5500xt and 5700 too close to the 5700 will be doa to close to the 5500xt it will kill the 5500xt , and the 6gb making me want to say "et toi Brute?!" If they reduce the 5500xt price so the 5600xt can come at 250 they will be good bang for buck ..we will know soon !
Looking forward to benchmarks.

6GB should be enough for 1080p. 4GB is too little these days for a new card, but 6GB ought to be enough in the vast majority of cases as long as it's used for FullHD. Of course 8GB is better, but whether there's any difference in practice is a different thing. Personally, I'd of course feel iffy downgrading from 8GB to 6GB.

well yeah but considering that 580/590/1060/1650s / 5500x /1660 are already great 1080p performers ... the 5600xt can be potentially an entry 1440p card ... 6gb most likely is enough now ...will it be in a year or two ? that's my concern

Its a high refresh rate 1080p card. There a quite few games already using 6gb vram and 1440p is already a concern.
