AMD announced the first quarter of 2023 financial results. This quarter, AMD achieved revenue of $5.353 billion (currently about 36.989 billion yuan), down 9% year-on-year, which is the first single-quarter revenue decline since the second quarter of 2019; non-GAAP net income was $970 million, down 39% year-on-year.
During the quarter’s earnings call, AMD CEO and President Chi Fung Su confirmed strong first-quarter sales of the RX 7900 XTX and that the company is on track to launch the next generation of mainstream Radeon 7000 series models this quarter, which typically means RX x600 / x700 series graphics cards.
In gaming graphics, our Radeon 6000 and Radeon 7000 series GPUs saw sequential channel sales growth. We saw strong sales of our high-end Radeon 7900 XTX GPUs in the first quarter and expect to expand our RDNA 3 GPU portfolio with the introduction of new mainstream Radeon 7000 series GPUs this quarter.

In addition, an AMD ROCm software pull request appeared for a variety of unreleased GPUs, but the request has been removed. From the text saved by Reddit users, the existence of a considerable number of GPU models is confirmed in this PR:

In addition, the GFX ID code indicates that the RX 7700/7600 and 7500 are based on Navi 33, while the RX 7800 will be based on Navi 32 GPUs. Of course, the most interesting part is the RX 7950XT series.
Rumors of this high-end graphics card date back to May 2022, even before the release of RDNA3. However, since then, basically, none of the more accurate sources have mentioned the contents of this graphics card, so we think we should take this list with a grain of salt, as it could also be just a placeholder.
According to previous revelations, the Radeon RX 7600 series graphics cards will use the 6nm process Navi 33 GPU with 175W TBP, which is an 11% performance increase compared to the RX 6650 XT. It is expected that the RX 7600 can be improved by another 5-7% through driver optimization after mass production, and the final performance may be close to that of the RX 6750 XT.
In addition, AMD Radeon RX 7600 graphics card is expected to be equipped with 8GB of video memory, the accelerated frequency can exceed 2.60GHz and pricing may be less than $ 400 (currently about RMB 2760).
