It should cost more than $270, but a lot less than $450.
While Nvidia is preparing a stripped-down GeForce RTX 3050 with 6 GB of memory and a 96-bit bus, AMD seems ready to release a beefed-up Radeon RX 7600.
According to the Benchlife resource, the company may release such an adapter with 16 GB of memory. There are no other details, but with this model, model everything is very simple.
AMD could release a truly cheap video card with 16 GB of memory.
The current RX 7600 is based on the full version of the Navi 33 GPU, that is, the new modification will not have more stream processors. The 128-bit bus also does not need to be changed to double the memory capacity. Thus, the Radeon RX 7600 16GB will differ from the current version either solely in memory capacity or also in frequencies, but it is unlikely to be significant.
At the moment, AMD has a huge gap between the $270 RX 7600 and the $450 RX 7700 XT. At the same time, the company has already stated that it will no longer release full-fledged new models within the RX 7000 line, that is, apparently no one will close the hole of the conditional RX 7600 XT or RX 7700. But the RX 7600 16GB will not be a new model, but it will partially solve the existing problem.
True, as we have already seen from the tests of the RTX 4060 Ti 16GB, in this segment this amount of memory is almost always useless, and the RX 7600 is even weaker than the mentioned Nvidia model. But the new AMD product could cost about $330-350, that is, it will be a unique offer with 16 GB of memory on the market.
