AMD Radeon RX 7000 series confirmed to arrive as three Navi 3X GPUs with a mix of manufacturing nodes

The Navi 3X series is expected to arrive as the RX 7600 XT, RX 7700 XT and RX 7900 XT.

An AMD engineer has confirmed several details about the Radeon RX 7000 series of GPUs. As expected, the Radeon RX 7000 series will arrive as 3 GPUs, the Navi 31, Navi 32 and Navi 33. Only Navi 31 and Navi 32 will utilise Multi-Chip-Modules (MCM), too.

Last week, AMD confirmed that it planned to release Radeon RX 7000 and Ryzen 7000 series hardware this year, respectively, based on RDNA 3 and Zen 4 architectures. Based on previous rumours, AMD will launch the Radeon RX 7000 series as three GPU: Navi 31, Navi 32 and Navi 33.

Subsequently, @blueisviolet discovered a LinkedIn profile of an AMD engineer that refers to the three GPUs and their manufacturing processes. While the information about future projects has been removed from the profile in question, @blueisviolet has shared a screenshot. Additionally, the profile contained information about MI300, a 6 nm refresh of AMD's Instinct Accelerator series.

As the screenshot below shows, the engineer refers to Navi 31 and Navi 32 as 5 nm and 6 nm projects. Reputedly, AMD will launch the former as the RX 7900 XT, and the latter as the RX 7700 XT. Both GPUs are expected to feature Multi-Chip-Modules (MCM) too with two GPU dies. Seemingly, AMD will manufacture one die on a 5 nm process and the other on a 6 nm node.

In comparison, the engineer refers to Navi 33 as a 6 nm project. As we discussed last week, Navi 33 is thought to be a monolithic GPU package with a single GPU die. All Navi 3X GPUs are tipped to arrive in late 2022.
