Rumor: AMD would be planning First rDNA 3 Graphics Cards in october
The first RDNA 3 GPUs are rumored to become available in the autumn, though no precise release date has been announced. The first RX 7000 units are expected to be released between the end of October and the middle of November, according to Twitter user Greymon55.
DNA3 would increase over RDNA2 over 50% generational performance/Watt increases over RDNA. The next-generation GPUs will be manufactured using the TSMC N5 (5 nm EUV) silicon manufacturing process and will have a multi-chip module design similar to AMD processors. The logic dies containing the GPU's SIMD components will be produced on the most advanced node, while the I/O and display/media accelerators will be fabricated on a little older node. AMD's rivals won't let them have all the spotlight. No one really knows when Intel will deliver its highly anticipated Arc desktop graphics cards globally, but they're coming. Late summer is when AMD/NVIDIA move to faster GPU architecture. NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 40 series, codenamed "Ada Lovelace," would likely ship in September or October.

I sure hope the chiplet design makes these GPUs much more affordable. Much like with Ryzen, I'm willing to sacrifice a little bit of latency if it means I can achieve high performance at a much lower cost.
I assume in some cases, a whole chiplet could be designated for things like RT, which might actually help minimize the latency issue since the cached instructions might not have to be swapped out as often, while also potentially allowing one frame to get raytraced while the next frame is getting rasterized simultaneously.

Considering TSMC must have raised its prices by 30% during the last couple of years, any savings AMD might have with the chiplet design would be used to merely compensate for that. Nvidia doesn't have MCM tech in use yet, so it's hard to imagine RTX prices dropping. Not to mention they both must be quite pleased with the current pricing scheme. During the (still ongoing) chip shortage and miners gladly paying double, there was hardly a reason of competitiveness to drop prices.

Hope it delivers on some good price-performance.
After 2 terrible years, we need some good news, for once.

It won't from what I have seen about the rumors. The chiplets are cache. So yes the main chiplet will be smaller due to having no L3 but then you will have 2-4 cache chiplets. So no I don't expect any major cost savings especially since TSMC's 5nm is considerably more expensive.

good, I can wait a little as long as I know it's worth it.
