  • It uses a 4nm RDNA 4 die with 32 compute units, 32 ray accelerators and 64 AI accelerators.
  • Benchmarks show it matches or exceeds NVIDIA’s RTX 5060 Ti at 1080p and 1440p while undercutting its price by as much as $80.
  • It sustains playable 1440p ray-tracing performance but trails NVIDIA’s DLSS 4 in path-traced workloads at higher resolutions.
  • Partner cards from ASUS, MSI and Sapphire will offer boost clocks up to 3.3 GHz and board power ratings of 150–182W.
