AMD Radeon RX 6500XT and RX 6400 entry-level RDNA2 cards allegedly listed with 4GB GDDR6 memory

64 bit bus... I don't think I have seen one that low in a long time! Of course, a 2060 will probably smoke it and will age significantly better so as usual with budget AMD GPUs... Skip

That memory bandwidth is lame, as the chip itself. But shouldn't we compare it with the GTX 2050? After all, the RX6600 was the card most close to the 2060.

By the way, did you guys read an article that WccfTech posted some days ago where it talked about the next gen flagship cards? The article itself doesn't bring anything new, but it describes the new nomenclature that AMD will use with RDNA3 and, well, it's confusing as f*ck (at least to me):

We have heard that AMD will drop CU (Compute Units) in favor of WGP (Work Group Processors) on its next-gen RDNA 3 GPUs. Since Navi 31 is an MCM GPU, it will feature two key IPs, a GCD (Graphics Core Die) based on TSMC's 5nm process and an MCD (Multi-Cache Die) based on the TSMC 6nm process node.

The Navi 31 GPU configuration shown here features two GCD's (Graphics Core Die) and a single MCD (Multi-Cache Die). Each GCD has 3 Shader Engines (6 in total) and each Shader Engine has 2 Shader Arrays (2 per SE / 6 per GCD / 12 in total). Each Shader Array is composed of 5 WGPs (10 per SE / 30 per GCD / 60 in total) and each WGP features 8 SIMD32 units with 32 ALUs (40 SIMD32 per SA / 80 per SE / 240 per GCD / 480 in total). These SIMD32 units combine to make up 7,680 cores per GCD and 15,360 cores in total.
