AMD's blockbuster CES keynote doesn't come about until next week, but it appears we already know one of the products ready to be declared: The Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card. Connected Friday, Videocardz plant a staging paginate for the XFX Radeon RX 5600 XT Thicc II Pro happening XFX's web page, following an earlier leak of the ASRock RX 5600 XT Challenger over the holiday break.

The XFX page is still live as of this penning, and healthy, information technology doesn't leave a whole set to the imagination, list out specs, features, and everything other you'd expect on a fully fleshed-out product page.

The Radeon RX 5600 XT looks like a slower version of the $350 Radeon RX 5700. While the pricier RX 5700 utilizes a wide 256-bit interface with 8GB of GDDR6 RAM, XFX says the Radeon RX 5600 XT reduces that to 6GB of GDDR6 over a 192-flake interface. It'll bear much less memory bandwidth overall but should probably still be much than adequate for killer 1080p and solid 1440p gaming.

Information technology looks like AMD equipped the Radeon RX 5600 Crosstalk with the same identification number of stream processors as the 5700—2,304—but clocked them much lower. The Radeon RX 5700's reference glasses telephone for a Game Clock speed of equal to 1625MHz and a Boost Time of 1725; XFX's listing for the Radeon RX 5600 XT puts the Game Clock at 1460MHz and Supercharge Clock 1620MHz. Given how hard XFX put the overclocking pedal point to the alloy in the more potent Radeon RX 5700 XT versions of the Thicc Deuce Ultra (pictured at top) and Thicc Deuce-ac Immoderate, XFX's stated Game Time speed for the Radeon RX 5600 XT likely falls above AMD's factory spec.

Course, the Radeon RX 5600 XT comes with the full assortment of Navi GPU features, such every bit PCIe 4.0 sustenanc and a knifelike-edge display locomotive engine.

As remote equally the XFX design itself, the Radeon RX 5600 Crosstalk Thicc II Pro looks very similar to the RX 5700 XT Thicc II Extremist, but with copper accents instead of chrome. Underlying temperature reduction improvements introduced in the later Thicc III Ultra made it cardinal of the best custom coolers close to, and then hopefully the thicker heatsink and better memory cooling—features lacking in the original 5700 XT Thicc II Ultra—transfer over to this latest Thicc II different, too. The listing highlights a "newly enhanced outside aim," then fingers crossed.

Bestow IT each heavenward and it looks like AMD's taking aim at Nvidia's $230 GeForce GTX 1660 Super and $280 GTX 1660 Ti next—though the Super already rendered the Ti for the most part superannuated. And that's the biggest enquiry leftmost about the Radeon RX 5600 Crosstalk: price.

The Radeon RX 5700 series delivers a killer price-to-performance proposition that make them the 1440p graphics cards to beat, but the recently released Radeon RX 5500 XT is priced too high versus Nvidia's new GeForce GTX 1650 Super. And with the 8GB version of the RX 5500 XT priced at $200-plus, it's hard to see this card competing with the $230 GeForce GTX 1660 Super's be. But if the Radeon RX 5600 XT manages to wallop the GTX 1660 Ti—remember, it packs the same 2,304 stream processors as the Radeon RX 5700, impartial clocked slower—then it could justify a high price chase after.

Expect to learn more the Radeon RX 5600 XT at AMD's CES keynote, which will be livestreamed to the ship's company's YouTube channel at 5 p.m. Eastern/2 p.m. Pacific on Monday, January 6. Given how many leaks are springing already, assume't be surprised if the Radeon RX 5600 XT hits the streets sooner rather than future after information technology's revealed.
