The Radeon RX 7500 and RX 7500 XT are two of the most important graphics cards that AMD will launch within its new generation. Both will be based on RDNA3 architectureand they will be aimed at the economic mid-range, which means that they will be designed to play in 1080p with guarantees.
Of the two, the more powerful version will be the Radeon RX 7500 XT, and there are some rumors that AMD could go from the Radeon RX 7500 and that he would instead launch a Radeon RX 7400, but nothing is confirmed yet, so we cannot give this information as certain. The only thing that we can almost certainly give is that the first one will end up reaching the market.
Possible specifications of the Radeon RX 7500
- Navi 33 graphics core in 6nm with monolithic design.
- 1,536 shaders.
- 96 texturing units.
- 48 raster units.
- 24 second generation cores to accelerate ray tracing.
- 28MB L3 cache.
- 96-bit bus.
- 6 GB of GDDR6 at 18 GHz.
- 120 watt TBP.
- You would need a 6 pin power connector.
Possible specifications of the Radeon RX 7500 XT
- Navi 33 graphics core in 6nm with monolithic design.
- 1,792 shaders.
- 112 texturing units.
- 64 raster units.
- 28 second generation cores to accelerate ray tracing.
- 32MB L3 cache.
- 128-bit bus.
- 8 GB of GDDR6 at 18 GHz.
- 130 watt TBP.
- You would need an 8 pin power connector.
Pricing, Estimated Performance, and Possible Release Date
The Radeon RX 7500 should offer performance similar or slightly inferior to that of the Radeon RX 6600, although it would have a significant disadvantage compared to this due to the cut in the memory subsystem and the inclusion of 6 GB of graphics memory. For its part, the Radeon RX 7500 XT should be between the Radeon RX 6600 and the Radeon RX 6600 XT.
The price of the Radeon RX 7500 would be $199, but AMD could adjust it down a bit to better fit it into its current ecosystem, and to make it more competitive. Some rumors speak of a fall to the $179-189. The XT version could cost 229 dollars, but there are also rumors that place it in the fringe of the $199-209.
We still do not have an official release date, but seeing the pace that AMD is carrying with its graphics solutions, it is most likely that these new Radeons will hit the market. later this year, possibly between November and December 2023, although we cannot rule out that they will suffer a delay until the first quarter of next year. Its direct rival will be the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050.
