AMD Radeon RX 8000 “RDNA 4” GPUs Similar To Radeon RX 5000 “RDNA 1” Segmentation, Navi 44 XL GPU Spotted

AMD's Radeon RX 8000 "RDNA 4" GPUs will see a similar product segmentation as the RX 5000 "RDNA 1" lineup with a focus on mainstream audiences.

AMD Radeon RX 8000 "RDNA 4" Isn't Going The Enthusiast Route As Red Team Wants To Offer Better Perf/$ To Mainstream Audiences

It was known that AMD wouldn't be going the enthusiast route with its upcoming Radeon RX 8000 "RDNA 4" GPU family as one of the high-end Navi chips, the Navi 4C/4X got canceled during the mid-development cycle. The only graphics cards that we will see on the market will be monolithic in terms of design and target mainstream audiences.

A follow-up to this is now posted by Golden Pig Upgrade (on Weibo) states that the RDNA 4 GPU family will be very similar to RDNA 1 series. The AMD RDNA 1 series also included a series of mainstream and budget GPUs which were integrated on a range of Radeon RX 5000 graphics cards. The lineup ranged from the Radeon RX 5300 and topped out with the Radeon RX 5700 XT SKU. The lineup featured two primary and one Apple-exclusive chips, the Navi 14, Navi 12, and Navi 10.

Similarly, AMD's RDNA 4 lineup is going to be very similar with a few GPUs based on the Navi 48 "GFX1201" SKU and a few GPUs based on the Navi 44 "GFX1200" SKU. Now it isn't confirmed if RX 8000 series is the confirmed family branding for the RDNA 4 lineup but it makes logical sense to go from RX 7000 to RX 8000 or AMD might just skip it and go for RX 9000 or adopt a new "Radeon AI" naming convention. That talk is for later.

For now, the AMD Radeon RX 8000 "RDNA 4" GPUs are expected to fall in between the RX 7900 and RX 7700 series in terms of performance. The Navi 48 GPUs are rumored to be around RX 7900 GRE & RX 7900 XT performance while the Navi 44 GPUs are expected to be somewhere between RX 7700 XT and RX 7800 XT performance. This is still preliminary and we should know more in the coming months.
