Asus TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB OC Ed.: At the Peak

At the top of Asus’ new Radeon lineup is the TUF Gaming Radeon RX 9060 XT 16GB GDDR6 OC Edition. A large cooler with three fans, combined with a smaller, more power-efficient GPU, allows the card to deliver excellent cooling and low noise levels. It’s one of the quietest and best-performing RX 9060 XT models available. The only downside is its price, which reaches the level of entry-level GeForce RTX 5060 Ti 16GB cards.

Clocks, Temperatures & Fan Speeds – F1 24 (Q mode)

The next tests are from the F1 24 benchmark at 3840 × 2160 resolution using Ultra settings. This benchmark runs five laps on the Singapore map in wet conditions. Unlike other benchmarks, the load is continuous, with no relief between loops, so the card remains warm throughout.

Clock speeds differ from those in Cyberpunk only by a few dozen MHz. During testing, the heated card maintained a clock speed between 2782 and 2833 MHz, with an average of 2812 MHz.

Power consumption monitoring again shows the card staying close to the 182W limit (light green line), with the rest of the system adding just under 100 W, bringing total system power consumption to 288,4 W.

The GPU’s average temperature reached 62 °C, memory heated up to 84 °C and the hotspot hit 91 °C.

Fan speeds topped out at about 1140 RPM.

AMD to Raise Prices on All Products: GPUs, CPUs and Chipsets

We reported that Intel was preparing to raise CPU prices next month, but according to further information, the same was planned by AMD. Further sources have now confirmed that this manufacturer will also be raising prices. However, the scope of the price increases is to be much broader—it will affect not only CPUs, but apparently all chips manufactured by AMD. As a result, graphics cards pricing will rise further, but so will prices of motherboards. Read more “AMD to Raise Prices on All Products: GPUs, CPUs and Chipsets” »

AMD Releases New Budget CPUs. Even for the AM4 Socket

It looks like whole ten years since the time AMD officially launched the AM4 platform (initially for the Excavator architecture and only on the OEM market, in 2016), a new CPU will now be released for this socket. But not a completely new one. AMD has now released two configurations that did not previously exist, but are based on 2020 and 2022 silicon, and the first of them is coming to the older platform using DDR4.

Next-gen Radeon GPUs: RDNA 5 architecture clock targets leaked

2027 is approaching with new generations of GPUs, although they will be delayed compared to the previous two-year cycles. AMD has GPUs with the new RDNA 5 architecture coming, which could incorporate fairly major changes compared to today’s RDNA 4 based  GPUs, as well as a new manufacturing process. Thanks to the latter, clock speeds will apparently increase, although perhaps not by as much as one would have expected. Read more “Next-gen Radeon GPUs: RDNA 5 architecture clock targets leaked” »
