AMD, the challenge to NVIDIA in the open high end: new details on the Radeon RX 5950XT GPU

AMD Radeon RX 5950XT returns to the limelight after recent sightings on the EEC database, this time with much more interesting technical details which, if confirmed, indicate that AMD could soon return to compete with NVIDIA also in the high-end segment. The rumors were leaked from a Twitter account that reports what seems to all intents and purposes a presentation slide SK-Hynix, AMD partner and producer of HBM (High Bandwitdh Memory) memories.

Always keeping in mind that these are unofficial and to be verified data, the slide in question seems to report the technical specifications of the Radeon RX 5950XT, a graphics card equipped with a Navi GPU equipped with 5120 Stream Processor and 24GB of memory. The Radeon RX 5950XT will most likely use the infamous AMD "Big Navi" GPU, a name that has been around for some time on the net and which should identify a chip built with 7nm + production process and AMD RDNA2 architecture.

The technical specifications leave no room for interpretation, a possible Radeon RX 5950XT would be the direct opponent of the GeForce RTX 2080 Ti or a future GeForce RTX 3080 Ti with NVIDIA Ampere architecture. In addition to 5120 Stream Processor, the new top of the AMD range is equipped with a disproportionate amount of VRAM, well 24GB of HBM2e memory, the latest version available with data transfer rates up to 3.2 Gbps. The memory chips interface on a 4096-bit bus, all for one theoretical maximum bandwidth reaching 2TB / s.

If confirmed then, the Radeon RX 5950XT could be the new graphics card to beat, at least considering the products currently on the market; of course, keep in mind that NVIDIA will not stand by and with the new 7nm Ampere architecture (we talked about it HERE) it will certainly offer something very valid. We would also like to point out that the latest rumors about the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 Ti (link in the STREET) want a 60SM GPU with 10 / 20GB of GDDR6 memory on a 320 bit bus.
