ASRock China Releases Two Radeon RX 7650 GRE Challenger OC Edition SKUs

Last week, AMD China and involved board partners launched region-exclusive Radeon RX 7650 GRE graphics card models; initial publicity produced a mountain of promotional imagery, but only a minority of AIBs published GPU specification sheets. On Tuesday (February 11), new Team Red documentation revealed a slightly confusing change in nomenclature—as of 2025, GRE stands for "Great Radeon Edition," rather than "Golden Rabbit Edition." On launch day, ASRock China showcased their Navi 33 GPU-based Radeon RX 7650 GRE Challenger 8 GB OC Edition card. A product page has appeared on the company's local website, complete with technical information. We are looking at 8 GB of GDDR6 VRAM, 2048 stream processors, a game clock frequency of 2539 MHz, and a boost clock of "up to 2810 MHz." The ASRock official store price is listed as 2049 RMB (~$281 USD).

Another model, the ASRock Radeon RX 7650 GRE Challenger OC+ Edition has appeared online; its official product page looks almost identical to the OC (non-plus) Edition's. The tacked-on "+" denotes key differences in game clock and boost clock factory settings—ASRock has implemented higher frequencies: 2400 MHz and 2725 MHz (respectively). After analyzing promotional imagery, the slightly fancier card appears to sport a chunkier shroud design. The new "Great Radeon Edition" OC+ Edition is not listed on ASRock's official e-tail outlet. Amusingly, the two product pages contain the same error; their "main specification" sections point to a non-existent AMD Radeon RX 7600 GRE GPU. Team Red's Radeon RX 7650 GRE GPU seems to be a slightly tweaked variant of the Radeon RX 7600 (Navi 33 XL) 8 GB model.

I think it's a cool name to be honest, I wish we got more 'GRE''s here.

Asus, Power Color, Sapphire and Vastarmor also have cards. Reviews are out and it is generally slightly faster than a 4060 for $50 USD cheaper. Not bad for a low spec card.

That was to celebrate the rabbit's year in China since 7900 GRE was first a China-exclusive card. Did you even read the post behind the link?

The rebranding of a card which is still being sold is the stupid thing on this release. They could've just released factory overclocked RX 7600 cards.

That is what this is, wouldn't you say? It's a factory OC'd card in a different box.

Exactly. Just stupid that they had to rebrand the RX 7600, they could've just release some factory OC models of the existing cards. Well, maybe bigger number is better for marketing.
