Radeon RX 6700 and RX 6700 XT with 12 GB GDDR6 may launch in March

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 and RX 6700 XT seem almost ready to join the existing Radeon RX 6000 series, which currently consists of the RX 6800, RX 6800 XT, and the RX 6900 XT. However, while these latter three parts feature a Navi 21 GPU, the two newer cards will sport a Navi 22 GPU: Navi 22 XT for the RX 6700 XT and Navi 22 XL for the RX 6700. It’s also believed the RX 6700 and RX 6700 XT will come with 12 GB of GDDR6 that takes advantage of a 192-bit memory interface.

Only a few specs are offered up in regard to the upcoming RX 6700 and RX 6700 XT. The source of the report, French-language site Cowcotland, focuses more on the Radeon RX 6700 XT, stating that the slightly more-powerful SKU will feature 40 compute units (CUs) and therefore 2,560 stream processors. In comparison, the next part up in the product stack, the RX 6800, comes with 60 CUs and 3,840 stream processors and costs from US$579. As for TGPs, VideoCardz has gone with 156-146 W for the Radeon RX 6700 and 211-186 W for the Radeon RX 6700 XT.
