A new leak from VideoCardz has detailed the alleged specifications of AMD’s budget-oriented RX 9060 XT GPU from the RDNA 4 family. Reportedly, the RX 9060 XT marks the first use of the Navi 44 die, which is significantly cut down versus its elder sibling, Navi 48. Without official confirmation from AMD, it’s hard to be certain about the exact specifications, so take this information with an appropriate dose of salt.
At the initial RDNA 4 unveiling in January, AMD confirmed the RX 9060 branding through one of its slides. With the RTX 5060 Ti around the corner, now is the perfect time to introduce RDNA 4 to the masses. Reportedly, there’s also an RX 9070 GRE in the making, which is expected to sit between the RX 9060 XT and the RX 9070, aimed at the $400 market.
Taking a page from Nvidia’s notebook, AMD is said to launch the RX 9060 XT in 8GB and 16GB versions. To be fair, this approach is quite analogous to the RX 7600 8GB and RX 7600 XT 16GB, featuring similar cores. The only difference is that both GPUs are now classified under the same XT-tier.

Based on the data supplied by VideoCardz, the RX 9060 XT offers 2,048 shader units (32 CUs), similar to its last-generation counterpart(s). We’re likely seeing the full-fat Navi 44 core in effect here. The 128-bit interface allows for four memory ICs, explaining the 8GB and 16GB (clamshell) capacities. There is, however, a large bump to the clock speeds, with the RX 9060 XT rated at 3.2 GHz (+480 MHz higher than the 7600 XT), said to reach 3.3 GHz with custom models. The TGP remains unspecified, but expect it to be near 200W.
