Chinese tech writers test new AMD cards with 12 GB memory chips. These cards use smaller Navi 48 parts with fewer processors than regular models. The clock speeds stay almost the same despite changes to the inner parts. People pay about $588 for these cards compared to $630 for bigger versions. Tests show gaming speed matches older RX 7900 cards, which cost $549 when they first appeared.

The card runs just slightly behind NVIDIA RTX 5070 at high settings but beats RTX 5060 Ti by 25 percent. AMD sells these cards only in China through companies like ASUS, Sapphire, and XFX. The company might need better prices or free extras to sell well against other choices. Stores outside China cannot stock these cards until AMD decides to ship worldwide.

AMD is trying to find out how much power they can cut without making cards feel slow compared to the full versions. This plan works for some places but needs good prices everywhere else. The main question remains whether gamers will choose these cards over similar-priced options already available.
