RX 9060 XT 16GB at a glance

The RX 9060 XT 16GB is based on the RDNA 4.0 architecture and is manufactured using the 4 process at TSMC. It ships with 16 GB of GDDR6 on a 128-bit bus , about 322 GB/s. Shader count is 2048 across 32 CU/SM. The board interface is PCIe 5.0 x16.

Reference board power is a moderate 160 W with 1x 8-pin. Final PSU and case requirements still depend on the specific partner card and the rest of the system.

VRAM capacity is strong at 16 GB. Comfortable for 1440p ultra and many 4K settings; the heaviest 4K + RT presets can still push past it later in a generation.

Best fit: Cost-conscious 1080p gaming systems.
