BIOSTAR and XFX Release Radeon RX 6400 Graphics Cards

[btarunr]

AMD Radeon board partners BIOSTAR and XFX today released their custom-design RX 6400 graphics cards, in what could be a sign that board partners are allowed to quietly release the entry-level GPU. The BIOSTAR Radeon RX 6400 Gaming is a full-height graphics card with a simple aluminium mono-block fan-heatsink, and a lack of any additional power connectors. The XFX Radeon RX 6400 SWFT 105, on the other hand, is a low-profile, single-slot graphics card that may find appeal among the SFF crowd. It appears to be using an aluminium channel-type cooler with a 40-50 mm blower. The RX 6400 is carved out from the 6 nm "Navi 23" silicon by enabling 12 out of 16 RDNA2 compute units (768 stream processors), and comes with 4 GB of GDDR6 memory across the chip's 64-bit wide memory interface. We're hearing that at reference specs, the RX 6400 has a typical graphics power (TGP) of just 53 W, which is how it's able to make do without any power connectors.

Is that the same legendary biostar cooler which struggles to keep 6600 xt cool and now less heatpipes and obe cooler?

XFX looks great!

Yep, it's a chunk of aluminum alright. It's bigger than the chunk XFX is using, but that's okay because the card at 53W shouldn't need much.

Would be cool to see what xfx is using under le hood.

it's navi 24. 1050Ti/ GTX 680 kind of performance. and maybe possible 33Watts with downvolting. or they already did. At what price. $99 would be my limit
and full navi 24 is GTX 980, not bad, but $199 is too much.

So, it's April 20th - where are the reviews, and where can you buy this trash heap?

Regarding performance should be a little bit slower than GTX 1650 GDDR6 (no 6pin required also) on a PCI-express 4 setup (a lot slower in PCI-express 3) and for those not interested in the 53W TDP, a RX 570 should be at least 25% faster in a PCI-express 3 setup.
I also want to see reviews but I am interested mostly in the HTPC comparisons with a GTX 1650 GDDR6 which TPU probably will not do.

RX 6400 graphics cards

64bit memory and only PCIe 4x lanes? Pathetic. This would be compelling if it were 128bit and at least 8x. The way it is? Just garbage.

What AMD and NVidia need to do is create SFF cards that have reasonable performance, not this kind of crap.

These are more of just a DA, like the 1050 series was

While I still agree, the situation is not as dire as those lacking specs would suggest. This guy did a review and performance is not terrible. In fact it's entirely doable. See below;

For h265 movies, low polygon games on hd screen, recording desktop presentation I used Rx 460
