Ahead of its anticipated gaming graphics performance, AMD has unveiled the Radeon RX 7400, a GPU designed for gaming enthusiasts, while maintaining the same specifications as the recently launched entry-level PRO W7400.
AMD Unveils Radeon RX 7400: A Closer Look at the Specifications
The Radeon RX 7400 and the Radeon PRO W7400 share strikingly similar specifications, both built on AMD’s RDNA 3 architecture. As a gaming-specific variant, the RX 7400 aims squarely at budget-conscious gamers, retaining identical capabilities as its PRO counterpart. Recent findings suggested its inclusion in Dell’s budget desktop offering, affirming the inclusion of 8 GB VRAM.
AMD has now confirmed these details on its official website. The RX 7400 is equipped with 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, though it operates at slower speeds compared to higher-end RX 7000 series models. Like the PRO W7400, this GPU also sustains a memory speed of 10.8 Gbps, resulting in a memory bandwidth of 173 GB/s—around 40% lower than that of its more powerful sibling, the Radeon RX 7600, which has the same memory and 128-bit bus configuration.
Utilizing a NAVI 33 die, similar to the RX 7600 but in a scaled-down version, the RX 7400 houses 1792 shaders. The GPU is also equipped with ray tracing capabilities, making it the most affordable option in the RX 7000 lineup to support this feature, boasting 28 ray accelerators. However, users should note that achieving playable frame rates with ray tracing enabled may prove challenging, particularly as higher-tier models already grapple with this demand.
Designed as an entry-level solution, the RX 7400 sports a single-slot design and measures just 167mm in length. This compact size mirrors that of the PRO W7400 and alleviates the need for external power connectors, with a total board power (TBP) of only 55W. This design suits pre-built systems, particularly in entry-level desktop configurations, which explains its debut in Dell’s latest enterprise desktops.
While AMD has not clarified the GPU’s availability in the DIY market, it appears to be intended primarily for OEM partners, with shipments expected to commence shortly.
