After what looks as if an interminable wait, AMD’s Navi 32 GPU is lastly beginning to break cowl. That is the second-tier RDNA 3 graphics processor, and solely the second ever to make use of AMD’s new GPU chiplet packaging methods. The pink staff appears to be centered on the cell market for the time being, and the truth that it is the laptop computer variations of the RX 7800-series silicon that has been leaked is telling.
That does, nevertheless, imply we’re nonetheless prone to be ready some time for the desktop card to reach, both in RX 7700 or RX 7800 trim.
Twitter leaker, All_The_Watts has listed the anticipated specs for 5 completely different Navi 32-based cell graphics playing cards. Whereas there isn’t any method to 100% confirm the reality of those rumoured specs, they appear fairly seemingly and in keeping with the earlier era of AMD cell GPUs.
They’ve additionally posted a shot of a 3DMark Time Spy benchmark supposedly from an RX 7800M XT run, and it is manner past what the very best of the last-gen laptop computer Radeon chips might muster. I imply, scorching rattling it is providing RTX 4070 desktop efficiency.
The common from an RX 6850M XT is round 11,000 factors, and the RTX 4070 is across the similar 17,800 degree. This does converse effectively to the efficiency of the Navi 32 silicon, which has been a priority given how late to the celebration AMD has been with its second-tier RDNA 3 GPU.
The RX 7800M XT is the highest cell chip of the next-gen Radeons, and the actual fact it might apparently ship that degree of efficiency with a complete board energy of some 189W is spectacular.

That ought to translate to good desktop efficiency if, as anticipated, the RX 7800 XT comes with the identical important GPU make-up, however with the next clock velocity and moar energy.
That is a heavy ‘ought to’, nevertheless, and there is no assure that chucking extra juice via the Navi 32 GPU will truly yield an entire heap extra efficiency in a desktop GPU. Actually our present expertise of RDNA 3 chips—both in monolithic or chiplet trim—have not proven a specific aptitude for nailing tremendous excessive clock speeds. Not the 3GHz+ numbers we got to count on from the Radeon RX 7000-series chips anyway.
We have up to now solely had the RX 7900 XTX and RX 7900 XT playing cards on the high-end, with their considerably hobbled Navi 31 chip, and the low-spec RX 7600 with its Navi 33 GPU. The center-order of Radeon playing cards has been conspicuous by its absence, with rumours suggesting efficiency is not the place AMD wished.
If the pink staff cannot considerably increase the clock velocity with extra energy on the desktop then we might simply be taking a look at an RX 7800 XT that performs like… effectively, an RX 6800 XT. And that is not an amazing look when it comes to generational efficiency uplifts.
Nonetheless, sticking with the cell facet of issues, it bodes effectively for the gaming chops of AMD-powered notebooks. For reference, that Time Spy rating is simply simply shy of the common GPU rating of an RTX 4080 laptop computer chip (which is nearer to an RTX 4070 Ti desktop half) which appears to be like like an amazing outcome to me.
The total rumoured line-up of cell Radeon chips are:
- RX 7800M XT | 60 CU | 16GB | 165W
- RX 7800M | 54 CU | 16GB | 150W
- RX 7700M | 48 CU | 12GB | 140W
- RX 7900S | 60 CU | 16GB | 135W
- RX 7800S | 48 CU | 12GB | 120W
That RX 7900S appears to be like a little bit of an oddity in there, given that it’s the similar important spec because the RX 7800M XT, however with a decrease energy profile. Although it is the identical take care of the RX 7700M and RX 7800S, however the much less stated about AMD’s present naming conventions the higher. Its laptop computer chip nomenclature is nearly impenetrable (you want a goddam coding wheel, ffs) and the graphics card names actually do not inform you a lot of the story both.
However, my mom advised me that if you do not have one thing good to say, do not say something. Although if I might rigorously caught to that recommendation all through my profession I would not have numerous printed work by now.
Anyhow, relying on how these Radeon machines are priced, the RX 7800M XT may very well be the GPU you need on the coronary heart of your subsequent gaming laptop computer. It is providing severe efficiency with a degree of effectivity I am positively right here for. It will likely be attention-grabbing to see how shut the lower-power RX 7900S is when it comes to efficiency for a 135W GPU, however for prime fps gaming, I believe the RX 7800M XT would be the one.
And given the truth that benchmark scores are seemingly on the market proper now, we would not be too removed from discovering out precisely how good they’re in the actual world.
