AMD is gearing up to debut a new graphics card on Wednesday, March 3. The upcoming card will be the latest entry in the Radeon RX 6000 family. The company plans on introducing the product at 11 a.m. EST during an event that’ll be streamed online.
AMD has also released an image for the GPU, which shows a graphics card running on two fans—down from the three fans you can find on RX 6800 and 6800 XT. Hence, the image probably depicts the RX 6700, a midrange graphics card.

According to previous leaks, the Radeon RX 6700 XT is based on Navi 22 and will feature 40 compute units (CUs) running at between 2.35GHz to 2.5GHz. There's a reported 96MB of Infinity Cache, while the card will have 12GB of GDDR6 memory operating on a 192-bit bus. It is rumored that the Radeon RX 6700 XT will be able to easily defeat NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 3060 and trade blows with the GeForce RTX 3060 Ti for the performance crown in the budget graphics card sector.
