AMD Radeon RX 7400 and RX 7300: New Budget Graphics Cards on the Horizon?
AMD is rumored to be releasing two new budget entry-level graphics cards, the RX 7400 and RX 7300, which would be priced under the RX 7600’s $259 price point. This news comes from two sources, including a tweet from KOMACHI_ENSAKA and a follow-up tweet with a device ID that refers to three different model types.
Possible Specs for the RX 7400 and 7300
The RX 7400 and 7300 could have the following specs:
• RX 7400: 16-20 CUs, 4-6GB of GDDR6 memory
• RX 7300: 12-16 CUs, 4-6GB of GDDR6 memory
These specs would offer a noticeable upgrade to the previous generation’s cards without overlapping with the RX 7600.
Why Budget Cards Matter
Budget graphics cards are essential for gamers who want to play the latest games without breaking the bank. According to the Steam Hardware & Software Survey, the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1060 is still a popular choice, despite being released in 2016. If the RX 7300 and 7400 can offer more power at a lower price point, they could be a winning combination for gamers.
