The first sighting of AMD’s upcoming RDNA4-powered GPU has likely been confirmed via @BenchLeaks (via Videocardz) on X (Twitter), which has appeared in a Geekbench entry under the guise of ‘GFX1201’. This ID is said to belong to the RDNA4 generation, as the previous generations uses IDs like GFX11xx and GFX10xx.

According to the benchmark listing, the device is listed as 28 Compute Units, 16GB of VRAM, and a maximum frequency of 2.1GHz. It’s worth noting that AMD has since used WGPs (Workgroup Processors) to refer its core count (though not every third-party tools may refer as such), and each WGP contains two CUs each – in this case, the 28 CUs listed should be 56 CUs contained within 28 WGPs.

The listed clock speed of this particular silicon is also significantly lower than what modern Radeon GPUs are capable of, which means this is likely an early engineering sample – and thus, the specs are not final. Assuming the silicon is still in active development, the core count of the eventual RDNA4 GPU may be subjected to changes as well. One thing is for sure, AMD will not be competing at the high-end for this generation, as the chipmaker reportedly refocuses its developmental efforts for the much-stronger RDNA5.

Pokdepinion: That’s a start. I don’t think this will be launched in early 2025, given how little is known so far.
