AMD's freshly introduced Radeon RX 7700 boasts less speed than its sibling, the RX 7700 XT, yet it shares the same memory type as the RX-7800-XT.
The technology world has a new addition to its portfolio, as AMD has launched the Radeon RX 7700 worldwide. This graphics card is designed to cater to the needs of gamers and streamers seeking high-performance hardware for 1440p resolution gaming.
The Radeon RX 7700 is built on AMD's Navi 32 architecture, featuring four active Memory Core Dies (MCD). However, the central Graphic Core Die (GCD) has undergone significant cuts in terms of active units compared to its XT counterpart. This results in the RX 7700 having fewer active shader units than the RX 7700 XT.
Each Memory Core Die in the Radeon RX 7700 boasts a 64-bit interface, and the card offers 16 GB of GDDR6 memory at a speed of 19.5 Gbps. Despite the reduced number of active units, the RX 7700 still packs a punch, offering impressive gaming and streaming capabilities.
However, the power consumption of the Radeon RX 7700 is higher than some might expect, at 263 watts. This could be a consideration for those building or upgrading their systems, as ensuring adequate power supply is crucial for maintaining optimal performance.
Interestingly, the Radeon RX 7700 appears to be intended primarily for OEM systems, much like the OEM product manufactured by AMD. Whether this means it will be more widely available in pre-built systems or through specific channels remains to be seen.
No specific pricing information for the Radeon RX 7700 has been provided as of yet. However, the card comes to market with the same TDP as the 7800 XT, suggesting increased operating voltage for use of not only heavily defective, but also lower-quality dies. This could potentially impact the final price point.

As more information about its pricing and availability becomes available, tech enthusiasts and gamers alike will be eager to see how this new card stacks up against its competitors.
