AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT Launch: Navi 44 Graphics Card Features 2048 Cores, 3.1 GHz+ Clocks, 16 GB & 8 GB Options

AMD has proudly introduced its latest addition to the RDNA 4 line-up: the Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card, equipped with a robust 16 GB of VRAM.

Introducing the AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT: A New Competitor in the Mainstream Market

The launch of the AMD Radeon RX 9060 series was anticipated since the company’s unveiling of its RDNA 4 architecture at CES 2025. This series has been strategically positioned to compete with NVIDIA’s mid-tier offerings, including the RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060, establishing itself just below the RX 9070 GPUs.

Today marks the official launch of the first product from the RX 9060 series: the Radeon RX 9060 XT. Currently, this series includes one WeU available in two configurations, which will be detailed further below.

Key Specifications of the Radeon RX 9060 XT

At the heart of the RX 9060 XT is the Navi 44 GPU, a more compact chip compared to the Navi 48 found in the RX 9070 series. This design prioritizes affordability, delivering exceptional gaming experiences to mainstream gamers. It is equipped with 32 Compute Units, translating to 2048 cores, alongside 32 ray tracing accelerators and 64 AI accelerators.

AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT Specs

The RX 9060 XT showcases AMD’s advancements utilizing TSMC’s 4nm process technology, achieving an astonishing boost clock speed of up to 3.13 GHz, a first for any GPU in this segment. Anticipation suggests that custom models may reach even higher, around 3.2 to 3.3 GHz. Furthermore, the total board power (TBP) ranges from 150 to 182W, reflecting the VRAM specifications of each offered WeU.

Notably, the RX 9060 XT provides two memory configurations: 8 GB and 16 GB. It features a 128-bit bus interface alongside a 20 Gbps GDDR6 memory solution. While comparable to the memory setup of the RTX 5060 Ti, NVIDIA’s offering utilizes newer GDDR7 memory. Initial rumors hinted at the potential cancellation of the 8 GB variant due to a lukewarm reception of 8 GB models from NVIDIA, but AMD seems committed to keeping both options available.
