According to a rumor from tipster @Kepler_L2, AMD’s upcoming Radeon RX 8000 RDNA 4 GPUs may utilize slower 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory instead of the faster GDDR6W DRAM. This decision, if accurate, could be surprising as Nvidia is expected to launch its RTX 5000-series cards with 28Gbps GDDR7 memory. AMD has predominantly used 18Gbps memory in its current-generation graphics cards, but its premium offerings feature faster speeds. The use of older memory in the RX 8000 series could aim to maintain affordability and manage power consumption, as next-gen solutions may require more power.

Rumors regarding AMD’s upcoming Radeon RX 8000 GPU lineup suggest that it may utilize slower 18 Gbps GDDR6 memory, instead of the faster GDDR6W or GDDR7 options expected from competitors. This could be a major disappointment for gamers anticipating faster memory speeds. However, as the RX 8000 series is speculated to cater to mainstream and budget markets, the use of older technology could help AMD maintain affordability and manage power consumption.
