AMD RDNA4 in LLVM challenge
The subsequent-generation gaming graphics structure often called GFX12 or RDNA4 is being ready by AMD.
It seems that AMD has now determined which GPUs from the RDNA4 sequence would be the first to deploy. The GFX1200 and GFX1201 are two unnamed graphics processors which have now been noticed in Linux patches for LLVM challenge, a set of modular and reusable compiler applied sciences.
Along with AMD, Intel’s future Panther Lake and Clearwater Forest sequence have been additionally included within the latest patches for LLVM. So clearly there may be a whole lot of work behind the scenes for future merchandise inside LLVM growth, and other people observing these patches can actually be taught loads prematurely.
The GFX ranges inform us what structure is being utilized by particular person processors. It might assist us decide how related every GPU is and what options are supported. Nonetheless, not each element is thought right now. The GFX names will help us perceive what number of merchandise AMD is making ready, and for individuals who can join the lacking dots, there are only a few surprises as soon as these merchandise are launched.

In keeping with this entry, the RDNA4 is on a unique GFX department, so it seems that the structure shall be a much bigger overhaul in comparison with RDNA2 over RDNA1. The 2 IDs that have been noticed might refer to 2 of the rumored Navi 4X GPUs, these GPUs are Navi 44 and Navi 48.

- GFX101X: RDNA1
- GFX103X: RDNA2
- GFX11XX: RDNA3
- GFX115X: RDNA3.5
- GFX12XX: RDNA4
In keeping with Purple Gaming Tech, the Navi 44 and Navi 48 GPUs will not be high-end GPUs. They’re mentioned to characteristic 32 or 20 RDNA4 WGP (Work Group Processors) of unknown configuration of Stream Processors.
RDNA 4 Attainable Config 1:
N48: 32 WGP, 48MB Infinity Cache, 192-bit GDDR7, PCIe Gen 5 x16
N44: 20 WGP, 32MB Infinity Cache, 128-bit GDDR7, PCIe Gen 5 x8
RDNA 4 Attainable Config 2:
N48: 32 WGP, 32MB Infinity Cache, 128-bit GDDR7, PCIe Gen 5 x8
N44: 20 WGP, 24MB Infinity Cache, 96-bit GDDR7, PCIe Gen 5 x8— Purple Gaming Tech
One ought to anticipate as much as 48 MB of Infinity Cache and a 192-bit reminiscence bus, so clearly as much as an higher mid-range phase if we go by AMD’s earlier product launches. These GPUs would nonetheless supply GDDR7 reminiscence assist and PCIe Gen5 functionality. The timing of this leak means that we would see extra of RDNA4 particulars within the coming months, however the launch date for these processors shouldn’t be anticipated ahead of the second half of 2024.
