Today, AMD Radeon General Manager Scott Herkelman announced the official release window for the Radeon RX 7000 series. And that's Six weeks from now, on November 3rd, the new GPU series based on the RDNA3 architecture will be launched.
It's an interesting marketing move by AMD to announce the release of the RX 7000 just hours before NVIDIA unveils the GeForce RTX 40 series; this shows that NVIDIA has a worthy competitor. AMD has already confirmed that RDNA3 will provide at least a 50% improvement. The new GPU series will also be the first to employ cutting-edge packaging innovations and a multi-chip-module design featuring separate graphics and memory chiplets.
According to AMD, the Radeon RX 7000 Navi 3X GPUs are manufactured using a 5nm process and will feature the latest iteration of the company's Infinity Cache technology. Predictions for the RDNA3 architecture include at least three different GPUs, the most powerful of which, the Navi 32, will feature 12288 Stream Processors, or more than twice as many as the current flagship GPU in the RDNA2 architecture, the Navi 21.
Update: With the release of RDNA 3, AMD is reminding the public that the next generation of Radeon graphics cards is waiting in the wings. Scott Herkelman, senior vice president and general manager of AMD's graphics business unit, has confirmed the November 3 announcement date, ending rumors of a late 2022 debut. The NVIDIA Ada Lovelace GPUs with the GeForce RTX 4000 will compete with the Radeon RX 7000 GPUs. AMD's announcement confirms months of rumours pointing to a debut between October and November.
Lisa Su, the company's CEO, presented a brief introduction of the RDNA 3 architecture during the Ryzen 7000 unveiling. She claims that the new architecture will provide up to a 50% increase in performance per watt over RDNA. 2, which is used in the Radeon RX 6000. The GPU market will be hotter than usual in the coming months. In addition to the GeForce RTX 4000 and Radeon RX 7000 announcements, Intel is likely to release its first generation Arc Alchemist graphics cards, the Arc A750 and A750 GPUs.
Remember; AMD's new generation RDNA 3 will be unveiled on November 3rd.
