The newest twist in AMD’s unpredictable GPU technique of late is reportedly a “new” Radeon RX 6750 GRE graphics card. Yup, that is a brand new last-gen GPU, almost three years after the Radeon RX 6000 Sequence was initially introduced.
Tom’s {Hardware} stories {that a} Weibo put up (since deleted) has launched particulars of the cardboard, indicating that the 6750 GRE will promote for $299, placing it head-on with Nvidia’s RTX 4060. Nevertheless, its efficiency is alleged to be in keeping with the dearer $399 RTX 4060 Ti.
No specs have been mooted, nevertheless the report implies that the 6750 GRE will likely be “beefed up” in comparison with the prevailing Radeon RX 6750 XT. That clearly is not in keeping with the one current “GRE” version card from AMD, the 7900 GRE, which is has diminished specification in comparison with different RX 7900 boards.
It is speculated that the board might swap from Navi 22 silicon, as per the 6700 XT and 6750 XT, in favour of Navi 21. That is the highest GPU from the 6000 Sequence, as seen within the 6800, 6800 XT, 6900 XT and 6950 XT GPUs.
The thought is that it will be an extra minimize down Navi 21 mannequin, slotting in beneath the RX 6800 by way of specification. That would permit, as an illustration, for a wider 256-bit reminiscence bus and 16GB of VRAM. The 6750 XT has a 192-bit bus and 12GB.
It is also price remembering that the 7900 GRE has solely been available for purchase individually in China, although it has been previous in pre-built methods in different territories. So, it is unclear the place the 6750 GRE will likely be offered whether it is certainly launched.
Whereas this all stays extremely speculative, it does make a sure sense. AMD is nearly to roll out some new RX 7000 Sequence GPUs within the 7700 XT and 7800 XT. You’ll be able to count on to see an official announcement round these playing cards this week. Nevertheless, we’re additionally anticipating there to be fairly a niche in worth between the prevailing $269 RX 7600 and the upcoming 7700 XT. So, there’s loads of area for this rumoured 6750 GRE to fit in.
What’s extra, on condition that AMD’s RDNA 3 structure, as seen in RX 7000 Sequence GPUs, is not an enormous advance on RDNA 2 within the 6000 Sequence by way of options, the 6750 GRE might nonetheless be fairly compelling if it is specced and priced proper.
A card barely quicker than a 6750 XT and with loads of VRAM for $299 can be a really, very good deal within the present graphics market. It will actually blow the RTX 4060 aside by way of straight raster efficiency. Watch this area.
