The information embargo on Radeon RX 9060 XT test results has been lifted. Let’s take a look at how the new Radeon stacks up against the competing GeForce RTX 5060 and RTX 5060 Ti. The 16GB variant is priced closer to Nvidia’s 8GB models and offers a better price-to-performance ratio than the 16GB RTX 5060 Ti. The more affordable Sapphire Pulse RX 9060 XT model adds great thermal and acoustic performance on top of that.

Not long ago, HWiNFO gained the ability to monitor GPU hotspot temperatures—local hotspots with significantly higher temps than the average having been reported by Nvidia chips. This has been followed by another improvement in graphics card temperature monitoring. You will now be able to look at the temperatures of all memory chips on the card, which can reveal cooling problems in much the same way as the GPU hotspot temperature.

AMD unveiled Zen 6-based server processors at the Advancing AI 2026 event, dubbing them the best generation it has ever released. The company is focusing on complete solutions including its own Helios server racks, though, which incorporate a new generation of GPUs: the Instinct MI455X, the first GPU based on an architecture derived from the RDNA gaming GPU family and a product that is intended to take AMD to a new level in the AI market.

Last year, Nvidia introduced multi-frame generation that inserts 2, 3, or even 5 AI-interpolated “fake” frames between real frames (though only for GeForce RTX 5000-series cards—with users of older GPUs out of luck). Since then, Intel has also introduced multi-frame generation, but it has never been available on Radeon graphics cards. That now appears to be changing, as AMD seems to be preparing the feature for an upcoming driver release. Read more “Multi-frame generation coming to Radeon GPUs, drivers show”
