AMD is gearing up to introduce its RDNA 4 architecture into the laptop market, with recent leaks revealing six new graphics card models aimed at high-end performance.
RDNA 4 Mobile GPUs Overview
In a shift from previous launch schedules, AMD has not yet made significant announcements regarding the RDNA 4 architecture’s mobile variants, though the company indicated intentions to release laptop RX 9000 series GPUs. A recent leak from a source detailed potential mobile models that have sparked interest among tech enthusiasts.
The reported flagship model is the RX 9080M, which is expected to utilize Navi 48 silicon, boasting 64 Compute Units (CUs) and 16 GB of memory. This GPU is anticipated to compete with NVIDIA’s 70-class and 80-class mobile offerings. Another notable model, the RX 9070M XT, is said to feature 48 CUs with the same 16 GB memory capacity, supporting AMD’s entry into the competitive laptop GPU landscape.
Additional RDNA 4 Models
Following the high-end variants, the mid-range Radeon RX 9070 M/S models are anticipated to be equipped with Navi 44 architecture, offering 32 CUs and 8 GB of memory. The lower-end Radeon RX 9060 M/S models are expected to have 28 CUs with an 8 GB memory capacity as well. This establishes that all RX 9000 series laptop models will start at 8 GB of VRAM, which is noteworthy in today’s gaming environment.
As the industry waits for concrete specifications and performance data, it’s prudent to approach these rumored details cautiously. AMD’s current APUs, such as the Strix Halo and forthcoming Medusa Point series, still leverage the RDNA 3.5 architecture, which means RDNA 4 won’t be integrated into APUs in the immediate future. However, the unveiling of the Radeon 9000M mobile GPU series is expected at Computex 2025, alongside the launch of the Radeon RX 9060 discrete GPUs.
