Rumor: AMD's Navi 21 GPU has 255 watts TGP and Boost up-to 2.4 GHz

AMD will reveal its first RDNA 2 Radeon based products on October 28th. However new specs of the AMD Navi 21 XT “Big Navi” GPU for the Radeon RX 6900 XT graphics card have been reported by a credible dude with information. Based on the reported specs, the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT seems to be a graphics card beast with good GPU clocks.

In his tweet, Patrick Schur claims that the AMD Navi 21 XT GPU, which is supposedly the "Big Navi" GPU that all enthusiastic gamers have been waiting for, will be used in the Radeon RX 6900 XT graphics card; there are also reports that a faster XTX variant exists. The Navi 21 XT GPU will reportedly have a powerful chip clocked at 2.4 GHz, the highest ever on a desktop graphics card. This also suggests that we can expect even higher Turbo frequencies. These days, the thing with AMD cards is that the turbo boost and actual gaming frequency are two different things. So we're not quite sure what to make of that.

The GPU is also said to feature a TGP (total graphics power) of 255W. This does not mean all the power of the card, but the GPU itself. The GeForce RTX 3080 has a TDP of 320W, and the GeForce RTX 3070 has a TDP of 220W. The graphics card is said to have 16GB of GDDR6 memory, which is also what we have seen in several previous leaks. As for the benchmarks, the performance seems very close to that of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 graphics card. AMD will officially introduce its family of Radeon RX 6000 series graphics cards on October 28.
