AMD Unveils Radeon RX 9060: Features 1792 Stream Processors, 8GB GDDR6 Memory, and 132W TDP

The Radeon RX 9060 serves as a toned-down version of the RX 9060 XT, incorporating fewer shader cores, a reduced memory speed, and a lower overall power consumption profile.

AMD Introduces Radeon RX 9060: 1792 SPs, 18 Gbps 8 GB GDDR6 Memory, and 132W TDP; Promises 100+ FPS in Various Triple-A Titles at Native 1080p Ultra

Recent updates reveal that AMD mistakenly provided its board partners with initial specifications for the Radeon RX 9060, indicating it would feature 2048 Stream Processors. However, AMD’s official documentation now confirms that the actual specification includes 1792 Stream Processors (or 28 Compute Units), falling short of the 32 Compute Units found in the RX 9060 XT. This downgrade results in a notable decline in performance.

AMD Radeon RX 9060 GPU with dual fans, specs listed, supports Windows 10/11 and Linux. — AMD Radeon RX 9060 features fewer Shaders and slower memory compared to the XT version.

In addition to the reduced shader count, the RX 9060 is limited to an 18 Gbps memory speed, although it retains the same 8 GB GDDR6 memory configuration paired with a 128-bit memory bus. This alteration results in a decreased bandwidth of 288 GB/s. Furthermore, it possesses a lower number of Ray and AI Accelerators than its more advanced counterpart, impacting Ray Tracing and AI workload efficiency.

On a positive note, due to its reduced specifications, the RX 9060 registers a lower thermal design power (TDP) of 132W, prompting AMD to recommend a 450W power supply unit (PSU) for optimal performance. The graphics card is designed to support the latest technological frameworks and rendering formats, including AV1 encoding and decoding capabilities. While the reference design showcased on AMD’s website may not see an official launch, AIB partners are expected to release custom editions equipped with modern display output ports such as DP 2.1a and HDMI 2.1b.

1080p gaming FPS rates: Assassin's Creed Mirage 108, F1 24 188, Call of Duty 98, DOOM 153, more. — Performance benchmarks for the Radeon RX 9060 across various games.

The RX 9060’s performance has been prominently marketed by AMD, showcasing its ability to deliver substantial frame rates in demanding titles at 1080p native ultra settings. AMD asserts that games like Assassin’s Creed: Mirage, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, and God of War: Ragnarok can achieve 100+ FPS. However, users should treat these claims with caution, as specific configurations and graphical presets utilized during testing are unclear.

AMD Software 25.8.1 Release Notes, Radeon RX 9060 support, game highlights. — Radeon RX 9060 Support included in AMD Adrenalin Edition 25.8.1.

Performance discrepancies also surface when comparing the RX 9060 to its more powerful sibling; the Radeon RX 9060 XT reportedly delivers between 100 and 120 FPS in God of War: Ragnarok when paired with a Ryzen 9800X3D at ultra settings in 1080p. Thus, one should remain skeptical of AMD’s lofty performance claims. Notably, the RX 9060 has already been integrated into the latest AMD Software Adrenalin Edition 25.8.1, available for download.
