SANTA CLARA, Calif. 01/04/2022

Today, during the 2022 Pro­duct Pre­mie­re live­stream event, AMD (NASDAQ: AMD) unvei­led addi­ti­ons and enhance­ments to the AMD Rade­on™ gra­phics port­fo­lio to deli­ver incre­di­ble, next-level expe­ri­en­ces to more gamers than ever.

Brin­ging hig­her levels of per­for­mance to power a new class of pre­mi­um lap­tops, the new solu­ti­ons expand the AMD Rade­on RX 6000M Series mobi­le gra­phics fami­ly, with the addi­ti­on of the AMD Rade­on RX 6850M XT, Rade­on RX 6650M XT, Rade­on RX 6650M, Rade­on RX 6500M and Rade­on RX 6300M mobi­le gra­phics. AMD also announ­ced the new AMD Rade­on RX 6000S mobi­le gra­phics lin­e­up – the AMD Rade­on RX 6800S, Rade­on RX 6700S and Rade­on RX 6600S – opti­mi­zed to bring power-effi­ci­ent, high-per­for­mance gam­ing to incre­di­bly thin-and-light lap­tops that are the fas­test gro­wing seg­ment in the gam­ing lap­top mar­ket².

For desk­top PCs, AMD announ­ced the AMD Rade­on RX 6500 XT and Rade­on RX 6400 gra­phics cards, desi­gned to make incre­di­ble 1080p gam­ing expe­ri­en­ces for popu­lar AAA and esports titles acces­si­ble to more gamers.

All of the new AMD Rade­on gra­phics solu­ti­ons levera­ge the breakth­rough AMD RDNA™ 2 gam­ing archi­tec­tu­re and offer high-band­width, low-laten­cy AMD Infi­ni­ty Cache™ memo­ry tech­no­lo­gy and high-speed GDDR6 memo­ry. They also sup­port Micro­soft Win­dows 11 and Micro­soft DirectX® 12 Ulti­ma­te, AMD Fide­li­ty­FX™ Super Reso­lu­ti­on (FSR) ups­ca­ling tech­no­lo­gy and other advan­ced fea­tures that pro­vi­de visual­ly stun­ning, high-refresh rate gam­ing experiences.

In addi­ti­on, AMD intro­du­ced seve­ral new and enhan­ced AMD smart tech­no­lo­gies, as well as the upco­ming ver­si­on of the AMD Soft­ware: Adre­na­lin Edi­ti­on™ appli­ca­ti­on. Expec­ted to be available in Q1 2022, the soft­ware release will fea­ture AMD Rade­on Super Reso­lu­ti­on (RSR), a new dri­ver-based ups­ca­ling tech­no­lo­gy that unleas­hes increased levels of per­for­mance with high-qua­li­ty visu­als in thou­sands of games.

“More deve­lo­pers are taking advan­ta­ge of new and exci­ting fea­tures to crea­te incre­di­ble life-like visu­als, requi­ring new levels of gra­phics hor­se­power,” said Scott Her­kel­man, seni­or vice pre­si­dent and gene­ral mana­ger, Gra­phics Busi­ness Unit at AMD. “It’s our goal to ensu­re as many gamers as pos­si­ble enjoy the­se games as deve­lo­pers inten­ded. We’re exci­ted to intro­du­ce a new arse­nal of gra­phics pro­ducts and tech­no­lo­gies so anyo­ne can enjoy today’s stun­ning games as they’re meant to be expe­ri­en­ced, whe­ther on the desk­top or on the go.”

AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT and Radeon RX 6400 Graphics Cards

The AMD Rade­on RX 6500 XT gra­phics card deli­vers up to 35 per­cent fas­ter gam­ing per­for­mance on avera­ge in 1080p reso­lu­ti­on with high set­tings com­pared to the com­pe­ti­ti­ve offe­ring³, while the AMD Rade­on RX 6400 gra­phics card is desi­gned to offer incre­di­ble 1080p gam­ing in OEM sys­tems. Built using 6nm pro­cess tech­no­lo­gy for excep­tio­nal per­for­mance and power effi­ci­en­cy, the AMD Rade­on RX 6500 XT and Rade­on RX 6400 gra­phics cards bring incre­di­ble game­play and advan­ced AMD Rade­on fea­tures to legi­ons of new and exis­ting PC gamers.

AMD Radeon RX 6000M Series and Radeon RX 6000S Series Mobile Graphics

The new AMD Rade­on mobi­le gra­phics lin­e­up is desi­gned for high-per­for­mance gam­ing on the go. At the top of the AMD Rade­on RX 6000M Series pro­duct stack is the new AMD Rade­on RX 6850M XT GPU, deli­ve­ring epic 1440p gam­ing per­for­mance for next-gen pre­mi­um lap­tops. The fas­test AMD GPU for extre­me gam­ing lap­tops, it offers 7 per­cent fas­ter gam­ing per­for­mance on avera­ge than the pre­vious top-of-the-line AMD Rade­on RX 6800M mobi­le GPU⁴.

AMD Rade­on RX 6000S Series mobi­le gra­phics offer an ide­al blend of per­for­mance and effi­ci­en­cy for slim form fac­tors, enab­ling gam­ing lap­top designs that can weigh less than 4.5 lbs. and can be up to 20 per­cent thin­ner than exis­ting devices⁵. The high-end AMD Rade­on RX 6800S GPU at 100W is pro­jec­ted to offer the ulti­ma­te in thin-and-light 1080p gam­ing by deli­ve­ring up to 100 FPS in sel­ect titles with max set­tings⁶, and is pro­jec­ted to offer 10 per­cent hig­her per­for­mance on avera­ge across sel­ect titles at 1080p than the com­pe­ti­ti­on⁷.
