Radeon RX 9060 XT: Presentation on May 21, market launch for comments on June 30
On May 21, AMD decided to hold a press conference at Computex 2025. The Radeon RX 9060 XT. This had long been obvious, but the bench, with generally good sources, also mentioned the nomination. The smaller RDNA-4 graphics card is not expected to be available until June.
Alternatively, May 18, the Sunday before the fair, was online, but there has been no further information on this nomination since then. May 21, if it really is just an announcement, should be more likely.
Announcement at Computex, but wouldn’t be until June? With a May 21 release date, the Radeon RX 9060 XT would be released just after the GeForce RTX 5060 8GB launch. For the smaller Blackwell Gaming graphics card, there’s still only an official “May” release date, but more recently, May 19 and the Monday before the Calpex opening have been in the rumor mill.

On the same day, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang will give the first speech of the fair. The RTX 5060, having already been officially introduced, should no longer be an issue on stage.

Does it come with 8 and 16 GB?
The Radeon RX 9060 XT could also come with 8 and 16 GB, just as Nvidia did with the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti. Forgoing 8 GB would win AMD a lot of support from the media and enthusiasts, but would leave the price even lower. Or will the 8 GB variant appear as the Radeon RX 9060—as was the case with the Radeon RX 7600 (XT)? Many other specifications of the Radeon RX 9060 XT are already considered secure, but for example, there is no tangible information on the TDP.
Another measurement topic could be a new generation of Ryzen Threadripper from AMD.
