Walking resources in sharing in a market that Nvidia dominates with iron hand is absurd and the best thing they could have made was to make this decision to focus all their resources on the mid -range, a range that really is the one that most Users interest And that, after all, it is the one that sells the most.
In the last CES 2025, AMD announced on tiptoe the two new models of the Radeon RX 9000 series: RX 9070 XT and RX 9070. Both models have 16 GB of GDDR6 type memoryinstead of using GDDR7 as the new generation RTX 50 of Nvidia. With this movement, AMD confirms the announcement made last August.
However, that does not mean that both models are the only ones that AMD plans to launch the market throughout the year. Actually, it should not be so not to be with both models cover the needs of most users and arrive with a cheaper price than RTX 5070 and NVIDIA RTX 5080 with Blackwell architecture.
AMD graphics card with 32 GB of VRM
If we listen to an available publication that has appeared in Chiphell, the red team is working on a new graph that doubles the amount of video memory of the RX 9000 series. This model would count 32 GB of VRMthe same amount of memory that has the RTX 5090 and its launch would be planned for the second semester of 2025.
This graph would also have RDNA architecture 4 and would have a 4C Navi GPU (the new RX 9070 XT and RX 9070 have a 48 Navi GPU). Regarding the type of RAM, this would be GDDR6, in order to offer a more economical alternative to the NVIDIA RTX 5090, although it had in lower performance.
According to this publication, it is not clear what the intention of AMD would be with this launch. At first it seems that the intention of the company that directs Lisa is to offer a more economical model than the RTX 5090 for small -scale data centers, scientists, educational centers and others.
Will it reach the domestic market? Before contemplating that question we must wait for the RX 9000 series to reach the market to know what the performance they offer with the new architecture. Its planned launch date is the first week of March.
AMD’s idea is the same as Intel. Again, according to various sources, Intel is working on a new graphic that would have 24 GB of video memory and that it would be a variant of the Intel Arc B580 currently available in the market with 12 GB of VRM.
This model would have the same objective as AMD so it would be destined on a small scale and, obviously, at a much cheaper price than the RTX 5090, a model that has a price of 2,369 euros For the Founders Edition model.
