AMD’s $299 Radeon RX 9060 XT brings 8GB or 16GB of RAM to fight the RTX 5060

AMD didn’t provide much by way of performance comparisons, but it’s promising that the cards have the same number of compute units as AMD’s last-generation RX 7600 series. AMD says that RDNA 4 compute units are much faster than those used for RDNA 3, particularly in games with ray-tracing effects enabled. This helped make the Radeon RX 9070 cards generally as fast or faster than the RX 7900 XTX and 7900 XT series, despite having around two-thirds as many compute units. Sticking with 32 CUs for the 9060 series isn’t exciting on paper, but we should still see a respectable generation-over-generation performance bump. The RX 7600 series, by contrast,
