My expectations (if the 64CU for the Navi 48 and 32CU for the Navi 44 are correct):

• 8800XT -> 64CU, ~4080 performance, $549-$599
• 8700XT -> 56CU, ~4070Ti Super, ~$449-$499 ($100 less than the 8800XT)
• 8600XT -> 32CU, between the 4060 and 4060Ti (RX6750 in Raster), ~$319
• 8500XT -> 24-28CU, 4060 Laptop, $269

I put Nvidia cards for comparison because I believe that with the strongly upgraded Raytracing of RDNA4 they should be roughly comparable to NVidias current offerings in that regard. And yes, I believe AMD will shoot themselves in the foot again with the Navi 44 offerings in terms of pricing.

Rumors say that the 7900XTX will still be the fastest product, and that part trades blows with the 4080. Sadly, I don't think the 8800XT would be up there with them.

Also, the 7800XT launch price, for the reference model, was $500, which was the reason the 7700XT at only $50 less fared so bad in reviews. I'd love for AMD to keep the same $500 price for the 8800XT, with the 8700XT launching at $400 to make it more competitive and the 8600XT at around $300 (the RX 7600 was $269 and the 7600XT was $329 and offered basically nothing over the base model other than more VRAM).

The 7900XTX is generally a couple percent faster in Raster than the 4080, and the gap to the 4070Ti Super is too large. Maybe I should have said slightly slower than the 4080.
