After NVIDIA released its latest 1080p gaming GPU – the RTX 4060 Ti, AMD also recently released its 1080p gaming GPU. Meet the AMD Radeon RX 7600 graphics card. The RX 7600 may not be as powerful as the RTX 4060 Ti, but it is cheaper than NVIDIA’s offering. The Radeon RX 7600 starts at $269, while the RTX 4060 Ti starts at $399. Unfortunately, most reviewers deemed the RX 7600 and RTX 4060 Ti as “DOA” or disappointing due to their 8GB of memory. Well, at least AMD’s 1080p card is “cheaper”, but is also about 22% slower than the competition at 1080p. Various RX 7600 graphics cards from AIC partners are now available on Amazon.com here. You can check out the official news release below for more details.
AMD Introduces AMD Radeon RX 7600 Graphics Card for Superb, Next-Gen 1080p Gaming
AMD announced the AMD Radeon™ RX 7600 graphics card, optimized to provide next-generation, high-performance 1080p gaming, streaming and content creation with stunning visual fidelity.
The AMD Radeon RX 7600 graphics card is built on the groundbreaking AMD RDNA™ 3 architecture, featuring redesigned compute units with unified raytracing and AI accelerators and second-generation AMD Infinity Cache™ technology. Designed to deliver incredible 1080p gaming experiences, the Radeon RX 7600 graphics card provides an ideal upgrade for legions of gamers.
Allowing gamers to play the latest titles at 60+ FPS at 1080p and stream in high fidelity with AV1 technology, the new graphics card offers 29% higher 1080p gaming performance on average than the AMD Radeon RX 6600 graphics card and 34% higher performance on average than the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 8GB at max settings. It also enables 100+ FPS on average in today’s top 10 PC esports titles, while delivering faster AI performance than the previous generation and higher average performance in select content creation applications. Offering the latest features and capabilities, including AMD Radiance Display™ Engine, full AV1 encoding, leadership support for DisplayPort 2.1 on select models and more, the Radeon RX 7600 graphics card is ideally suited for high-performance, high-fidelity 1080p gaming, streaming and popular content creation applications.
Scott Herkelman, senior vice president and general manager, Graphics Business Unit at AMD:
“Currently, 65% of gamers surveyed are playing at 1080p and the majority are still using older graphics cards, unable to take advantage of the latest performance- and visual-enhancing features that deliver the best gaming experiences,”. “AMD offers a range of graphics solutions at different price points, memory configurations and performance levels to support a variety of gamers’ needs. The Radeon RX 7600 graphics card at US $269 hits the sweet spot for high-performance 1080p gaming. It allows users to enjoy the latest features like AV1 encoding, the AMD Radiance Display Engine and more to take their gaming, streaming and content creation projects to the next level.”
