Radeon RX 9060 XT is getting ready for release - ASUS will introduce versions with 8 and 16 GB in the second quarter
AMD is actively promoting its line RDNA 4 video cards, and now the focus is on the series Radeon RX 9060, which should come out in second quarter 2025. According to information from the South Korean RRA agency, ASUS is already preparing to release custom versions of cards in the series DUAL, PRIME and TUF, and we are talking about both the 8-gigabyte and 16-gigabyte modifications of the RX 9060 XT model.
The new product is expected to be based on the Navi 44 graphics processor, with GDDR6 support and a 128-bit bus. Both versions of the video card will use memory with an effective speed of 20 Gbps, which gives equal throughput — but the 16GB version has a clear advantage in modern projects that require a large amount of VRAM.
The documents also indicate that the RX 9060 XT will use one 8-pin connector power supply, which hints at energy consumption within the limits 190-225 W. In addition to ASUS, similar models have already appeared at Acer - under the Predator Bifrost and Nitro brands, which indicates broad support for the new generation. GPU among AMD partners.
AMD is planning to pit the RX 9060 XT against NVIDIA's upcoming GeForce RTX 5060 series. The bet on increased memory is an obvious move to stand out from the competition and attract attention to mid-price segment, which will become key in 2025.
