AMD Confirms RX 9060 XT 8 GB and 16 GB Models, Prioritizing Higher-VRAM Variant

The GPUs will debut at Computex 2025, with the 16 GB version set to dominate retail shelves due to performance advantages.

Overview

  • AMD has confirmed the launch of both 8 GB and 16 GB variants of the Radeon RX 9060 XT, addressing rumors of the 8 GB model's cancellation.
  • The 16 GB version will be prioritized in retail channels to avoid the performance pitfalls seen in NVIDIA's RTX 5060 Ti 8 GB.
  • The GPUs will officially debut at Computex 2025, where AMD is expected to reveal detailed specifications and pricing.
  • Pricing is anticipated to start at $350, with the 16 GB model carrying a $30–$50 premium over the 8 GB version.
  • The 8 GB model remains part of the lineup due to production constraints, as its PCB design was finalized before low-VRAM performance issues became evident.
