The RX 6500 XT would have 1024 Stream Processors, the RX 6400 with 768

A few days ago the renowned KOMACHI_ENSAKA spoke again about the future Radeon RX 6500 XT and RX 6400, confirming that they will have 4GB of GDDR6 memory, and now a source from Videocardz brings us more information about the specifications of these two low-end graphics cards that AMD will offer.

If what this source says is true, the RX 6500 XT will use the full Navi 24 GPU, with 16 Compute Units or 1024 Stream Processors. While its exact TDP was not confirmed, it is known that it will require external power and AMD recommends a 400W source.

The RX 6400 will use a trimmed version of Navi 24 with 12 Compute Units or 1024 Stream Processors enabled, and will have a consumption below 75W, so it will not require external power, but will be powered through the PCI-Express slot .

While the number of Stream Processors is not bad, both GPUs will have very low bandwidth with a 64-bit bus and 4GB of 14Gbps GDDR6 memory, reaching only 112GB / s. As a comparison, the RX 6600 which is the next graph above the RX 6500 XT has 1792 Stream Processors, 8GB of GDDR6 memory, 128-bit bus and 224GB / s bandwidth, so the difference between the RX 6500 XT and the RX 6600 will be very big. Considering that the RX 6600 will hopefully hit 60 FPS in some recent AAA games, the RX 6500 XT and RX 6400 will be low-end GPUs for gaming at 1080p and medium graphics and no more than that, although we expect their price to be too. low and be an accessible alternative to play until you can access something better in the future.

Unfortunately, the prices that these new AMD graphics will have have not yet been detailed, nor an approximate launch date more than “the first quarter of 2022”, so we will have to wait a little longer to have these details. Once they come out, we will be communicating them, so stay tuned to HD Tecnología.

What do you think about these specifications of the RX 6500 XT and RX 6400? Do you think it would be worth buying them for basic games?
