Performance Claims & Gaming Benchmarks

AMD claims the RX 9060 can run the latest triple-A titles like AC: Mirage, COD: Black Ops 6, God of War: Ragnarok, and others at 100+ FPS easily at 1080p native ultra settings. The official performance charts show impressive numbers:

  • Assassin’s Creed Mirage: 108 FPS
  • F1 24: 188 FPS
  • Call of Duty: 98 FPS
  • DOOM: 153 FPS

However, you should take these numbers with some caution because we don’t know what configuration AMD used for these tests, and the exact graphical presets it used.

Technical Downgrades vs RX 9060 XT

The RX 9060 represents a strategic positioning below the XT variant with several key differences:

  • Reduced Performance: The memory speed is capped at 18 Gbps out of the box, and the GPU has fewer Ray and AI Accelerators than the XT variant, meaning slightly slower Ray Tracing and AI workload processing.
  • Improved Efficiency: The GPU is more power-efficient as a result, bringing a TDP of 132W, making it suitable for mid-range gaming builds.

Modern Features & Compatibility

The GPU supports all the latest technologies and most rendering formats, including AV1 Encoding and Decoding. AMD won’t launch a reference design, with availability through AIB partners featuring modern connectivity like DisplayPort 2.1a and HDMI 2.1b.

Driver Support & Availability

The Radeon RX 9060 GPU has been offered support ahead of the release in the latest AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 25.8.1, ensuring day-one compatibility for early adopters.

Market Positioning

The RX 9060 targets the competitive 1080p gaming segment, offering solid performance for mainstream gamers who don’t require the premium features of higher-tier cards. Its 132W TDP makes it suitable for compact builds and systems with moderate power supplies.
