AMD will add new graphics cards to its Radeon RX 7000 series by the end of September, and these could be the RX 7700 and RX 7800.
AMD is planning to release “new, enthusiast-tier GPUs” in the Radeon RX 7000 series this quarter. CEO Lisa Su shared the rough timeline during a Q2 2023 Earnings Call, revealing that the RDNA 3 lineup of graphics cards is on track to expand with enthusiast-class GPUs. These are believed to be the Radeon RX 7700 and the RX 7800. It must be noted that AMD is categorizing its upcoming GPUs as “enthusiast”, rather than the previously used “ultra-enthusiast” moniker for its RX 7900 series of graphics cards, indicating a shift towards more mid-range markets than their predecessors.
Late last year, AMD unveiled its Radeon RX 7000 series of GPUs to compete with Nvidia’s RTX 40 series. However, at the time, the company only introduced two GPUs to the public: the RX 7900 XT and RX 7900 XTX. As these were the top-tier cards meant to compete with the RTX 4070/Ti and RTX 4080, the company released the RX 7600 in May of this year as the entry-level budget-friendly offering. This left a major gap in the middle and ever since, fans of Team Red have been eagerly waiting for more mid-range offerings.
Currently Available Radeon RX 7000 Series GPUs
The Gigabyte Radeon RX 7600 Gaming OC is a triple-fan dual-slot graphics card that brings Gigabyte’s effective WINDFORCE cooling technology. It has three 80mm fans with alternate spinning that work alongside the five composite copper heat pipes that directly touch the GPU. The GPU uses the highest-grade metal chokes, 2oz copper PCB, lower ESR solid capacitors, and lower RDS(on) MOSFETs, among other features.
The MSI Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming Trio Classic 20G provides the best value on the market for intense 4K gaming. With a boost clock speed of 2400 MHz and 20 GB of GDDR6 memory, this MSI graphics card outshines the competition. The graphics card’s Torx 4.0 fan uses a ring-shaped construction to direct airflow toward heatsinks. Relying on a brushed aluminum backplate, the MSI Radeon RX 7900 XT Gaming Trio Classic 20G is built to withstand years of heat and abuse suffered in a gaming rig.
