AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT 12GB Specs, Benchmarks & Pricing

The AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT was released in March 2021 as a mid-range gaming GPU based on the RDNA 2 architecture (Navi 22 XT die). It features 40 compute units with 2,560 stream processors and 12GB of GDDR6 memory with 384 GB/s bandwidth on a 192-bit bus. The card includes 40 ray tracing acceleration cores and 96MB of Infinity Cache. Built on TSMC's 7nm process with a 335 mm² die containing 17.2 billion transistors, it delivers 13.21 TFLOPS of FP32 performance at a boost clock of 2,581 MHz. With a TDP of 230W, the RX 6700 XT was designed as AMD's primary 1440p gaming card, competing with NVIDIA's RTX 3060 Ti and RTX 3070. It offers excellent performance per watt and solid 1440p gaming with DirectX 12 Ultimate support including hardware-accelerated ray tracing.

Notes

  1. FP32 TFLOPS calculated as 2,560 stream processors × 2,581 MHz boost clock × 2 ops/cycle / 1,000,000 = 13.21 TFLOPS
  2. FP16 performance is 26.43 TFLOPS per TechPowerUp GPU Database (2:1 ratio to FP32, standard for RDNA 2 architecture)
  3. Memory bandwidth calculated as 192-bit bus × 16 Gbps effective / 8 = 384 GB/s
  4. RDNA 2 architecture does not include dedicated AI accelerators or tensor cores (added in RDNA 3), so tensorCoreCount is null
  5. supportedHardwareOperations is an empty array: RDNA 2 has no matrix/tensor-core (GEMM-accelerated) hardware path of any kind. Per AMD's own RDNA architecture technology page, the generational feature-comparison table's "AI Accelerators" row is blank for both the "RDNA" and "RDNA 2" columns and first shows "1st Gen" at "RDNA 3" -- confirmed independently by Wikipedia's RDNA 2 article, which makes no mention of AI accelerators or matrix-multiply hardware. RDNA 2's ray accelerator is a distinct fixed-function ray-intersection unit, unrelated to matrix/GEMM support. Sources: https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/rdna.html, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDNA_2
  6. fp8TFLOPS and fp4TFLOPS are left null and intentionally NOT listed in unverifiedSpecs: this is a confirmed hardware negative rather than a research gap. RDNA 2 predates AMD's AI Accelerators/WMMA matrix engines entirely (introduced in RDNA 3), so no FP8 or FP4 matrix throughput exists on this architecture to report.
  7. RDNA 2 CUs execute INT8 and INT4 operations via standard ALU/dot-product instructions, not a dedicated matrix or tensor core -- RDNA 2 predates AMD's AI Accelerators (WMMA), which were introduced in RDNA 3. AMD does not publish INT8 TOPS for consumer RDNA 2 GPUs, so int8TOPS is null. Sources: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDNA_2, https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/rdna.html
  8. The 96MB Infinity Cache significantly improves effective memory bandwidth beyond the raw 384 GB/s specification
  9. Built on TSMC 7nm process with 335 mm² die size containing 17.2 billion transistors
  10. MSRP of $479 USD verified from multiple sources including VideoCardz, PC Gamer, and Tom's Hardware at launch on March 18, 2021
