While AMD’s own version is a dual-fan card with the same basic reference design as the RX 68 XT, it appears many of AMD’s partners are opting for three-fan designs. AMD claims cards will be available on March 18th from all of the usual board partners, 40 different system builders, and AMD.com, with prebuilt systems including the HP Omen 25L and 30L desktops coming later this spring and beyond. It’s got a 192-bit memory bus, down from 256-bit for the company’s other 6000-series cards.Ĭlearly, we’ll have to test the RX 6700 XT’s performance ourselves, but nothing matters more than availability - and where that availability will leave the card’s actual price by the time you can buy one. The new card will require two power connectors, an 8-pin and a 6-pin, and the GPU should be clocked somewhat faster than in earlier RX 6000-series cards at up to 2424MHz. That said, AMD also just announced that it will begin rolling out Resizable BAR to its Ryzen 3000-series processors, not just the newer Ryzen 5000 ones. It’s worth noting these numbers were generated using the frame rate boost of AMD’s Smart Access Memory (generically known as Resizable BAR), something that’s only just starting to roll out to Nvidia’s graphics cards and generally requires newer CPUs to work. The company’s early benchmarks (see above) show it pulling ahead of Nvidia’s 30 Ti, though not in all games. AMD says it should be fast enough for ray tracing as well. With a fast enough CPU, AMD suggests you should be able to hit 212 fps in Overwatch, 272 fps in League of Legends, and 360 fps in Rainbow Six Siege, enough for esports gamers to justify some of the fastest monitors on the market. With 230 watts of power, 12GB of video memory, and 40 compute units (compared to 60 for the RX 6800 and 80 for the RX 6800 XT), AMD’s promising you’ll be able to play all of the latest games at maximum settings at 1440p resolution. It says it doesn’t set its partners’ retail prices either.Īssuming for a moment that AMD pulls it off, managing substantially greater availability than Nvidia’s recent debut, the RX 6700 XT sounds like it could be a compelling pick. AMD wouldn’t say how much of that stock is being allocated toward GPUs that’ll be sold at AMD.com, though.

That not only includes more stock at AMD.com but also additional supply for board partners and manufacturers that’ll sell gaming PCs later on. “We know it’s crazy out there, we’re doing everything we can,” says AMD’s Nish Neelalojanan, a director of product management. In December, the actual street prices of the $400 3060 Ti, the $500 3070, and the $579 RX 6800 were $675, $819, and $841, respectively - and that was before Trump’s tariffs pushed Nvidia and AMD’s board partners to raise their retail prices. This isn’t a sane period for GPU buyers, though.

It’s also a full $100 less than AMD’s $579 RX 6800, which we found had enough oomph for entry-level 4K gaming. In a normal, sane year, that would slot it between Nvidia’s $5, which we called “the 1440p sweet spot,” and Nvidia’s bang-for-the-buck $4 Ti, where you might have to dial down the settings here and there. The new RX 6700 XT will arrive on March 18th for a suggested retail price of $479.
We’ve been waiting for that for nearly two months. Even better: AMD claims it’ll begin refreshing stock of RX 6000 GPUs and Ryzen 5000 CPUs every week on its own website, where it’ll sell them at their retail prices. “With the AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT launch, we are on track to have significantly more GPUs available for sale at launch,” AMD tells The Verge. Today, the company’s announcing a new GPU that might (but probably won’t?) change that: the Radeon RX 6700 XT.

AMD has heard you loud and clear: you can’t buy its excellent RX 68 XT graphics cards at anything close to their retail prices.
