Introducing the first products of the RX 7000 series, powered by RDNA 3 architecture in the past months, AMD continues to expand this series. Following the RX 7900 XT, RX 7900 XTX and RX 7600, the company introduced the RX 7900 GRE graphics card at the ChinaJoy 2023 event. Here is the new graphics card powered by the Navi 31 graphics unit.AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE specifications

According to the technical specifications, the RX 7900 GRE is a cropped version of the RX 7900 XT introduced in the past months. AMD’s reference design for the card reveals the three-fan cooling system used in the RX 7900 XT. The PCB design of the device also includes some changes due to the trimmed memory configuration. The power supply of the device is provided by dual 8-pin connectors.It will rival the RTX 4070 with its price
AMD shared only the US and Chinese prices for the graphics card, which is expected to go on sale in the global market. The RX 7900 GRE will cost $649 in the US and around $740 in China. It seems that AMD has targeted the RTX 4070 with its new pricing policy. As you know, Nvidia has set a price of $ 599 for the RTX 4070 model, but many versions of the card are sold for about $ 650.
How will the RX 7900 GRE perform in games?
With the introduction of the new RX 7900 graphics card, AMD has also released some performance metrics for this card. Tests shared by AMD in Chinese show that the RX 7900 GRE performs close to the RTX 4070 at 1440p resolution, but lags far behind the RX 7900 XT. Compared to the RDNA 2 based RX 6800 XT, the product seems to have an average of 13% performance increase. Here are the performance values of the RX 7900 GRE at the highest options and 1440p resolution:
Although the graphics card is designed for 1440p resolution, AMD states that this card can be very successful at 4K resolution with FidelityFX Super Resolution technology. Although the RX 7900 GRE is an interesting card with its price, it is curious how this card will be an option against the RX 7800 and RX 7700 series.
