ASUS Registers Multiple Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 & 8 GB SKUs in South Korea
AMD is likely readying its Radeon RX 9060 Series graphics cards for launch in the near future—an official Q2 2025 release window was announced late last month, but company representatives did not go into great detail regarding specifications or pricing. Early March leaks indicated that Team Red board partners were preparing custom Radeon RX 9060 XT models in 16 GB and 8 GB forms; a recent discovery—courtesy of the ever intrepid harukaze5719—corroborates these configurations. Last week, ASUS registered multiple unannounced TUF Gaming, PRIME and DUAL Radeon RX 9060 XT models with the South Korean Radio Agency. Interestingly, only the TUF Gaming OC and non-OC cards are specced with pools of 16 GB VRAM. The rest of the pack makes do with 8 GB.
Similarly, several EEC registrations of Acer "Nitro" and "Predator BiFrost" Radeon RX 9060 XT 16 GB and 8 GB SKUs were spotted by harukaze5719 three weeks ago. According to VideoCardz, leaked AIB technical data suggests the use of GDDR6, 20 Gbps memory chips and 128-bit memory interfaces. TechPowerUp's GPU database still specifies that the Radeon RX 9060 XT is based on a Navi 48 LE GPU variant, but other sources reckon that a "smaller" Navi 44 model would be more appropriate for this class of graphics card. With the rumored delay of NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 5060 Ti and RTX 5060 models, AMD's lower end RDNA 4 offerings could launch during a quiet period.

That Prime card seems like one to get.
The issue seems to always be that its never the right price.
8GB $200 9060? Great. Huge win. Buy them all.
8GB $300 9060? WTF. Pantsuit Su, what you smoking? Burn the Heretic.
show up with a rubber chickenNot show up at all to the knifefight this round, otherwise I suspect AMD would have done a lot of stuff differently.Surely going from 128bit & 8GB to 256bit & 16GB should not cost much more. Especially just adding 256bit would give a nice performance uplift without needing to spend much and makes it much easier to deploy 16GB VRAM.
I read somewhere on Wccftech,
Thought AMD said no more higher end GPU's from them this round. There were rumours of if an 32GB VRAM 9070XTX.
Having just a 192-bit bus with 12GB would've been the sweetspot, just like with 6700 XT already.Does Nvidia do it somewhat better? I mean, I've never heard anyone complaining about 6600/6600 XT/7600 besides the overall performance, not about VRAM, so what's so bad with 8GB AMD cards?
