AMD Radeon RX 8000 series will all be equipped with RDNA 4 architecture GPU, using 3nm and 5nm process
AMD’s next-generation RDNA 3 architecture is still some time away from meeting consumers. Some specifications have been released before, and the authenticity has yet to be confirmed. However, the more distant RDNA 4 architecture seems to be accelerating in AMD’s development schedule, and there has been sporadic news recently.
According to Twitter user @greymon55, Radeon RX 8000 series graphics cards will all be based on the Navi 4x core of the RDNA 4 architecture. This is different from the previous rumor that the RDNA 3 architecture has only three GPUs, Navi 31/Navi 32/Navi 33, and Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards are divided into RDNA 3 architecture and RDNA 2 architecture products. In Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards, Navi 31 and Navi 32 will adopt MCM multi-chip packaging, using 5nm process to manufacture GCD (graphics computing chip) and 6nm process to manufacture MCD (multi-buffer/IO chip), AMD will change the original structure instead of the original CU computing unit, and will use WGP as the main computing module. Some products of the Radeon RX 7000 series still use RDNA 2 architecture GPUs, but they will be manufactured on a 6nm process.
In addition, the code name of the flagship RDNA 3 architecture GPU seems to be Gamma Cassiopeiae, which is named after planets, which is different from previous general guesses. After using fish as the GPU code name, AMD’s GPU code name seems to return to the stars.
