RDNA 5 line up and performance expectations

Shogmaster

Ask me about my package
RDNA 4 was a huge improvement over RDNA 3 in Q1 2025, giving us FSR 4 image scaling and big improvements in Ray Tracing.

Now RDNA 5 will be coming out in 2027 (Q2? Q3?), with even bigger improvements, using TSMC N3P. So let's look at the leaked line up with speculated clocks, RAM, and performance vs RDNA 4 / RTX. (leaks says 1.1x raster and 2X RT of RDNA 4):

RX 10050XT? (AT4) -
24 CU @ 3.5 GHz (?)
12~16GB 128bit LPDDR5X 10000 (?) 160 GB/s
~95% raster, ~175% RT of 9060XT
~100% raster, ?RT of RTX 3070

$300~350

RX 10060XT? (AT3) -
48 CU @ 3.4 GHz (?)
16~24GB 256bit LPDDR5X 10000 (?) 320 GB/s
~190% raster, ~340% RT of 9060XT
~105% raster, ?RT of 4080 Super

$450~550

RX 10070XT? (AT2) -
68 CU @ 3.2 GHz (?)
16~24GB 196bit GDDR7 864 GB/s
~125% raster, ~227% RT of 9070XT
~ 104% raster, ?RT of RTX 5080

$700~800

RX 10090XT? (AT0) -
96 CU @ 3 GHz (?)
24~36GB 384bit GDDR7 (?) 1.7TB/s
~165% raster, ~300% RT of 9070XT
~90% raster, ?RT of RTX 5090

$1000~1200

I am soooo fucking excited for RDNA 5....

I'm rooting for them to be competition for Nvidia, and I'd like them to pump out some better chips for handhelds.

Binned and down clocked Madusa Point Premium with AT4 will be your handheld SoC. It will destroy Arc G3.

1.1 raster is dog shit thats 10% improvement, the 5080 brought 13% raster gains over the 4080 and that was on the same exact node as the 4080. People are still clowning on the 5080s gains to this day. I expect at least 20% gains over RDNA4.
 
Is this a new leaked lineup?

I thought AT1 was 96 CUs. Wtf happened to AT0 with 192 CUs?

Binned and down clocked Madusa Point Premium with AT4 will be your handheld SoC. It will destroy Arc G3.
I don't think Xbox Handhelds will be using binned chips. Magnus uses 8 Zen 6C cores, 3 Zen 6 cores unlike Medusa Point Premium/mini.

Medusa Point Premium is just for Windows Mini PCs and non Xbox Handhelds, like given to Lenovo etc.

My theory is only Magnus chiplet devices will be branded Xbox. ROG Ally/X being the only exception because they had no choice at the time.
 
They've let everyone down every single time. I am not expecting much from AMD.
They will be alright... the only year AMD GPUs show any real innovation is whatever year consoles are releasing... then they spend the next 7 years iterating on whatever architecture showed up in the consoles.
 
leaks, like the 9080XT with 32GB which was 30% faster than the 70...

AMD was already doing well against NVidia in raster so they concentrated on RT. No big wup.
 
I'm in for RDNA5. Would be my fourth AMD GPU in a row (previous 6700xt, 7900xt, current 9070xt).

Looking at either the highest end or 2nd from the top so long as the gains are solid.

I think 192 CU is only for server/AI purposes.

All AMD Z series handheld SoC have been binned XXX Point SoCs. Z2 Extreme is binned HX 370. Literally.

192 CU AT0 is for Cloud yes, multipurpose for Azure Enterprise, AI, Xbox Cloud Gaming. They would likely divide that into 2-4 instances, 2 x 96 CUs or 4 x 48 CUs. However, reports were AMD was going to make a Flagship Discrete GPU out of that die with 154 CUs. To compete with the RTX 6090.

Z series lineup was cancelled according to KeplerL2, so no Z3. There was another report corroborating him.

The APUs that MS would be supplying to OEMs are going to be Magnus powered, exact same specifications. OEMs can buy non Magnus APUs and do whatever.

Magnus powered portfolio of devices are going to be closed bootloader, at the very least the Console form factors.

Yeah, AT1 and AT0 have conflicting info from different sources, which is fun AMIRITE

Consumers are pretty satisfied with existing tech so AMD and co have no interest in major upgrades. They are just gonna milk us. I have a 7900xtx and I'm sitting this out. 96CU (same as my 7900xtx) with better ray tracing and AI is cool.

For example I'm 99.99% sure the Z3 Extreme will be 20CUs. It's just better to keep what you have and wait for a major upgrade.
 
I wanna say those prices are terrible, but with the current state of things they're actually quite good. That naming has to change though. 10070 should at least change to 10700 if you want to keep 5 digits or you could replace the 10 by the roman numeral X and have it only be 4 digits X070.

What's the estimate on TF performance for each? YES, TF performance DOES mean A LOT.
