AMD's potential release of the RX 7800 XT graphics card at Gamescom this week has ignited excitement among enthusiasts. Speculations about its specifications are rife, with reports from videocardz.com suggesting a possible 60 compute units (CUs), a notable decline compared to the RX 7900 XT's 84 CUs – a less-than-stellar prospect for us. For a detailed spec list, you can refer to Videocardz's coverage here.

This projected power increase from the previous RX 6800 XT has left many anticipating its pricing strategy. As the RX 6800 XT is currently priced between $500-$540, aligning with this range to outperform its predecessor seems essential. Yet, considering AMD's history of overpricing their 7000 series, some anticipate a higher cost, around $650. Such a move might result in a less-than-impressive market reception, potentially leading to post-release price drops.

This remains speculative, and the upcoming Gamescom event will likely bring more clarity. We'll continue to provide updates as we gather more information.
