New Radeon RX 6000 Cards Coming Next Summer?

After the recent launch of the Radeon RX 6500 XT, a low-end desktop video card rather criticized for its technical characteristics, which seem to derive from the very nature of the project (initially it should have been a mobile GPU), obviously AMD is already thinking about the future. We already know, from the company's event held at CES 2022, that this year will be marked by the debut of the Ryzen 6000 APUs, featuring Zen 3+ cores coupled with RDNA2 integrated GPUs, while as far as video cards are concerned, we already know the RX6000S series and three new models of Radeon RX 6X50M, RX 6500M and 6300M.

As for the technical characteristics, this "non XT" version of the RX 6500 should be based on a Navi 24 GPU made at 6nm with 768 Stream Processor, while the amount of memory on board should be equal to 4GB GDDR6 64-bit. If these specifications prove to be true, it may be the first RDNA 2 card that does not need additional power connectors, as it should not need more than 75W (supplied directly from the PCI Express bus).

As reported by the Furthermore, it seems that the much-rumored Radeon RX 6X50 XT refresh series should also debut between June and July. The new cards are expected to be equipped with 18Gb / s GDDR6 memory, currently used exclusively in the RX 6500 XT and RX 6900 XT LC models.
