Is the Radeon RX 5700 end of production? AMD addresses the rumors

Radeon RX 5700 and RX 5700 XT have gained recognition among fans of technological innovations and are quite popular representatives of the AMD series. Recently, rumors about the end of production of these models appeared on the web, cited by Cowcotland, and these revelations were directly referred to AMD. In response, it was admitted that the revelations of the French portal are not fully verified, and the manufacturer does not intend to end the production of the Radeon RX 5700 XT (this is to be produced by the first quarter of 2021). The Radeon 5700 itself is available only on special orders. They come off the production line, but the reference designs are replaced by proprietary models. “We continue to produce graphics cards in the Radeon RX 5700 series, which provide a unique 1440p gaming experience,” AMD said. At the same time, an email sent to the Tom’s Hardware editorial office assured that the company wanted to respond to market demand, and since the cards are still alive, it is probably not small.

In response, it was admitted that the revelations of the French portal are not fully verified, and the manufacturer does not intend to end the production of the Radeon RX 5700 XT (this is to be produced by the first quarter of 2021).

The Radeon RX 5700 is said to be 10 percent more efficient than the GeForce RTX 2060, and at the same time cheaper than the RTX 3070, so they are still an attractive proposition for consumers who do not plan to make an expensive investment in a more efficient and more expensive graphics card in the near future. It is worth mentioning that the Radeon RX 5700 and RX 5700 sold at a level that was satisfactory for the manufacturer last year. In stores, we can also find the Radeon RX 5600 XT, which, although surprisingly with its specification, remains in practice a weaker version of the Radeon RX 5700. The difference is noticeable in the memory design – the Radeon RX 5700 has 8 GB GDDR6 with a 256-bit wide bus, Radeon RX 5600 XT has a 6 GB GDDR6 with a 192-bit bus interface.

While NVIDIA is already working with the new GeForce RTX 3000 cards, AMD fans still have to wait for the new GPUs to arrive. The presentation of the RX 6000, however, is to take place in the coming weeks and according to what we already know they will use the RDNA 2 architecture. The official Newegg blog revealed a few details about the latest generation from AMD, and so the representatives of the Radeon RX 6000 will offer higher clock rates than the first RDNA. The macOS 11 firmware code that was leaked to the Internet suggests that it will stand out with clock speeds of 2050-2500 MHz. Of course, these are not confirmed reports and in this case you should wait for the manufacturer’s conference, which is scheduled for October 28.
