As long as they are full featured they'll be a step up from the awful 6500XT and 6400. Those wastes of sand lacked encoding features and their already meh performance tanked on PCIE 3.0 systems which were the systems they'd most likey be bought for.

Their performance doesn't even have to be great, just better than integrated. - They are low-end GPU's.
But when they are incompetent at even the most basic tasks like encoding/decoding of video streams, then they are useless at even the most basic tasks.

Hopefully the RX7400 has 1536 shaders at a high clockrate and fed with 6-8GB of VRAM with around 150GB/s of bandwidth.
That would be a potent budget offering.

In reality? Probably 1024 shaders, 4GB of Ram with 120GB/s of bandwidth give or take.

That was the big problem with the 6300, as an 8700G has the same 12CU but with simple DDR5 it could vastly outpace with 6300 because it came with just 32-bit connection and 64GB/s bandwidth (even with just 2 DDR5-5600 DIMMS you would be at 89GB/s)

Since there isn't a 7500 (yet), I suspect they'll come with 20-28CU and faster memory (128bit for the 6400 and 96bit for the 6300 to get to 6GB), which would be much better than the 6300-6500XT line, but still just barely better than an APU.

But considering the market those cards are made for (Office PCs where the IT still prefer having a GPU inside instead of relying on the iGPU/APU and entry-level gamers/gamers in poorer countries where bigger GPUs are horrendously expensive compared to their income), this would be enough until the next gen rolls in.
