AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT (16 GB)

The AMD Radeon RX 9060 XT (16 GB) is a desktop graphics card that launched in Q2 2025 with a MSRP of $349. It is built on the RDNA 4.0 GPU microarchitecture (codename Navi 44) and is manufactured on a 4 nm process.

Memory

The RX 9060 XT has 16 GB of GDDR6 memory, with a 2,518 MHz memory clock and a 128 bit interface. This gives it a memory bandwidth of 322.3 Gb/s, which affects how fast it can transfer data to and from memory. GPU memory stores temporary data that helps the GPU with complex math and graphics operations. More memory is generally better, as not having enough can cause performance bottlenecks.

Cores and Clock Speeds

The RX 9060 XT includes 2,048 stream processors (SPs), the processing units for handling parallel computing tasks. The GPU operates at a core clock speed of 1,700 MHz and can dynamically boost its clock speed up to 3,130 MHz. It usually operates at 2,530 MHz during typical gaming workloads. Complementing the processing units are 128 texture mapping units (TMUs) for efficient texture filtering and 64 render output units (ROPs) for pixel processing. Additionally, the GPU features 32 ray accelerators dedicated to real-time ray tracing calculations.

Compatibility & Power Consumption

The RX 9060 XT occupies 2 PCIe expansion slots. It supports HDMI 2.1b, DisplayPort 2.1a display connections. AMD recommends a power supply of at least 450 W to handle the GPU's thermal design power (TDP) of 160 W.
