AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT graphics card to come in two versions: 6GB and 8GB VRAM

It looks like AMD is following NVIDIA's playbook, preparing two different chip and memory configurations for the upcoming RX 5600 XT, much like NVIDIA did with the GTX 1060 and GTX 1660 graphics cards.

Earlier rumors suggested the Radeon RX 5600 XT would feature 6GB of memory and a 192-bit interface, but new information indicates AMD's plans have changed drastically.

According to fresh rumors, the first RX 5600 XT variant will feature 8GB of GDDR6 VRAM, likely connected to the GPU via a 256-bit bus. The second, however, will be limited to 6GB of the same GDDR6, and its memory interface will likely be cut to 192-bit. Such a move is highly unusual for AMD, but these rumors are indirectly confirmed by leaked names for non-reference ASUS RX 5600 series graphics cards:

• ROG-STRIX-RX5600XT-O8G-GAMING

• ROG-STRIX-RX5600-O8G-GAMING

• TUF 3-RX5600XT-O8G-GAMING

• TUF 3-RX5600-O8G-GAMING

• DUAL-RX5600XT-O8G-EVO

• DUAL-RX5600-O8G-EVO

• RX5600 CLD 6GO RX5600

• PGD 6GO RC5600 PGU 6GO

• RX5600XT CLD 6GO

• RX5600XT PGD 6GO

• RC5600XT PGU 6GO

Currently, only the specifications and VRAM capacity of the Radeon RX 5600 are known, but the GPU and its exact configuration remain a mystery.
