➀ AMD uses flexible RDNA 4 architecture with asymmetric harvesting to create multiple GPU SKUs from two base dies (Navi 48/Navi 44);
➁ The design allows selective disabling of components like shader engines and memory controllers, enabling cost-effective scaling from flagship RX 9070 XT to mid-range RX 9060;
➂ Despite skipping the high-end market, this strategy improves wafer yields and accelerates product launches while laying groundwork for future UDNA architecture.
➀ AMD推出Radeon RX 9060，作为9060 XT的非XT版本，占据Radeon RX 9000系列底端位置；
➁ 该入门级显卡在《刺客信条：幻景》、《地平线：零之曙光 重制版》、《生化危机》等游戏中可实现高达100帧以上的原生1080p超清设置帧率；
➂ Radeon RX 9060配备28个RDNA 4计算单元、1792个流处理器、28个光线加速器、56个AI加速器、64个ROP和112个纹理映射单元，内存为8GB GDDR6（18Gbps），总线宽度为128位，提供高达288GB/s的内存带宽。
➀ MSI has confirmed that it will not be manufacturing any Radeon RX 9070 cards based on RDNA 4 architecture.
➁ This decision comes despite the recent launch of the Radeon RX 9070 XT and Radeon RX 9070 by AMD.
➂ MSI's absence from AMD's latest generation launch is a significant change from its previous participation in AMD GPU launches.
➀ AMD's David McAfee acknowledges the unprecedented demand for Radeon RX 9070 series;
➁ AMD is working to restock partners and ensure availability at expected market prices;
➂ McAfee discusses the complexities of the graphics business and AMD's efforts to increase supply of Navi 48.
➀ MSI has confirmed that it will not manufacture AMD Radeon 9000-series GPUs using the RDNA 4 architecture.
➁ The decision may be due to MSI's intention to focus on Nvidia GPUs or the lack of profitability in the AMD Radeon 9000-series.
➂ The move could be seen as MSI potentially shifting its focus from AMD to Nvidia, similar to EVGA's strategy.
➀ This article provides an update on AMD's RDNA 4 architecture, detailing its features and improvements over the previous RDNA generations.
➁ It discusses the new compute engine, media engine, ray tracing architecture, and AI performance enhancements.
➂ The article highlights the impact of RDNA 4 on gaming and AI applications and its competitive positioning against NVIDIA's offerings.
➀ AMD's RX 9070 XT is up to 28% faster than the RX 7800 XT, but falls short of the RX 7900 XTX.
➁ Benchmark scores from Geekbench suggest it matches Nvidia's RTX 4070 Super in synthetic tests.
➂ While the RX 9070 XT shows a decent improvement over its predecessor, real-world performance remains to be seen.
➀ Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5090 supply is expected to be 'stupidly high' next month as excess yields from TSMC's GB200 wafers are repurposed for consumer-grade GB202 chips.
➁ The demand for data center GB200 chips fell short of Nvidia's projections, leading to the reallocation of wafers.
➂ This change reflects the shift in focus from data center to consumer-grade GPUs, with almost 90% of Nvidia's revenue coming from data center offerings.
➀ AMD is rumored to launch the Ryzen 9 9950X3D and Ryzen 9 9900X3D CPUs alongside RDNA 4 GPUs in late March.
➁ The CPUs are expected to offer a 20% performance boost in gaming compared to Intel's Core Ultra 200S processors.
➂ The RX 9070 XT is rumored to be within 15-20% of the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5080, with potential availability unlike the RTX 5080.
➀ AMD confirms that RDNA 4 architecture will initially target desktop GPUs, with mobile offerings to follow later.
➁ RDNA 4 introduces several improvements, including optimized Compute Units, enhanced AI, and faster ray tracing.
➂ Despite the current shortage of Radeon dGPU-powered laptops, AMD plans to prioritize desktop GPUs with RDNA 4 before moving to mobile platforms.
