Yesterday, AMD announced its upcoming 1440p gaming monster – the Radeon RX 6700 XT to the world and announced its price as $479, now we have got the Indian pricing of the GPU. The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT reference GPU that can be brought from AMD will be priced at ₹ 38,990 + 18% GST in India.
Obviously, getting at ₹ 46k is a myth only but AMD has promised enough availability, and if you cannot get the reference model, you can always get the costlier custom AIB cards. All of these new RX 6700 XT GPUs will be available on shelves on March 18.
| Model | Compute Units | GDDR6 | Game Clock (MHz) | Boost Clock (MHZ) | Memory Interface | Infinity Cache | TBP | Price |
| AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT | 40 | 12GB | 2424 | Up to2581 | 192 bit | 96MB | 230W | ₹ 38,990 + 18% GST |
Exceptional 1440p Performance, Stunning Visuals and Unmatched Gaming Experiences
The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT graphics card is built on 7nm process technology and AMD RDNA 2 gaming architecture, designed to deliver the optimal combination of performance and power efficiency. Additional features and capabilities include:
- AMD Infinity Cache – 96MB of last-level data cache on the GPU die provides up to 2.5X higher bandwidth at the same power level as traditional architectures to provide higher gaming performance.
- AMD Smart Access Memory – Unlocks higher performance when pairing AMD Radeon RX 6000 Series graphics cards with AMD Ryzen 5000 or select Ryzen 3000 Series Desktop Processors and AMD 500-series motherboards. Providing AMD Ryzen processors with access to high-speed GDDR6 graphics memory can deliver a performance uplift of up to 16%.
- 12GB High-Speed GDDR6 VRAM – Designed to handle the increasing texture loads and greater visual demands of today’s modern games at higher resolutions and max settings, the new graphics card with 12GB of GDDR6 of memory allows gamers to easily power through today and tomorrow’s demanding AAA titles.
- AMD FidelityFX – Integrated into more than 40 games and counting, AMD FidelityFX is an open-source toolkit of visual enhancement effects for game developers available at AMD GPUOpen. Optimized for AMD Radeon graphics, it includes a robust collection of rasterized lighting, shadow, and reflection effects that can be integrated into the latest games with minimal performance overhead.
- DirectX Raytracing (DXR) – AMD RDNA 2 architecture-based graphics cards are optimized to deliver real-time lighting, shadow, and reflection realism with DXR, providing a stunning gaming experience. When paired with AMD FidelityFX, developers can combine rasterized and ray-traced effects to provide an ideal balance of image quality and gaming performance.
- AMD Radeon Anti-Lag – Now with support for the DirectX 12 API, AMD Radeon Anti-Lag decreases input-to-display response times, making games more responsive and offering a competitive edge in gameplay.
- AMD Radeon Boost – Now with support for Variable Rate Shading, AMD Radeon Boost delivers up to a 27% performance increase during fast-motion gaming scenarios by dynamically reducing image resolution or by varying shading rates for different regions of a frame, increasing framerates and fluidity, and bolstering responsiveness with virtually no perceptual impact on image quality.
It will be interesting to see whether gamers opt for the RX 6700 XT or the similarly priced RTX 3070 or RTX 3060 Ti.
