AMD Radeon RX 7600 8GB Review Featuring Sapphire Pulse OC

This has been a busy week for PC gamers, as the newly released Nvidia RTX 4060 Ti proved a somewhat worthy addition to the xx60 class of cards, launching for the same price that the previous RTX 3060 Ti did a few years back! Yes yes, this is an AMD review, I swear, but with it hot on the heels of a strong card from Nvidia, AMD is already on the backfoot before we even start today. My prediction is broadly similar and somewhat better raster performance over its predecessor, with Nvidia still holding the Ray Tracing lead, but they did get a head start on that tech, so no big shocker.

AMD Radeon RX 7600 Review

I don’t actually have a reference card from AMD for this launch, but we do have a lovely MSRP card from the fantastic folks at Sapphire, which should give us a good baseline for what this chipset can do. The RX 7600 card utilises the latest Navi 33XL GPU which features 2048 FP32 cores. This can deliver a base clock of 1720 Mhz and an impressive boost clock of 2655 Mhz. While the card is equipped with 8GB of GDDR6 memory on a 128-bit bus, that’s actually quite a similar setup to the new RTX 4060 Ti, at least until the 16GB variants come out later in the month or next month, so it should be a pretty interesting set of benchmarks between the two.
