- AMD has a new GPU RX 7400
- It is for PC manufacturers only for the moment, however – and it is likely to stay
- However, a low -end Battlemage GPU of Intel could be in preparation
AMD has discreetly published a new low -end office graphics card, but it is unlikely that it is the solution to your GPU budgetary needs – at least not yet – although we have understood that Intel could have such a GPU in the wings.
First of all, the AMD News, which is the official launch of an Radeon RX 7400 graphics card – and yes, although this is a new GPU, this is the previous RDNA 3 generation, rather than DNA 4, which are the RX 9000 of the RX models.
The RX 7400 has 28 calculation units (CUS), it is therefore equipped with 1,792 flow processors (hearts), as well as 8 GB of GDDR6 video memory and low use of 43W.
AMD describes this GPU as targeting “advanced game and streaming experiences at 1080p”, which means that it is for complete HD games. Ignore the mention of “Advanced”, which is the marketing presentation text, the specifications listed indicating that it is a relatively modest low -end GPU – but there is a greater grip here.
In other words, it will only be available for systems manufacturers like Dell – so you will not be able to buy an RX 7400 on the shelf, and the only way it is likely to come to the market is in pre -preferable machines (or be sold used, perhaps).
If it is disappointing, the second nugget of short stories, concerning a possible Intel GPU at the end of the spectrum budget, is more positive – although it is in mind that it is only speculation.
Videocardz has recovered a Kärkkäinen tire post on X which mentions a new GPU Battlemage ID that Intel added to the Mesa 3D graphics library (in Linux).

As you can see, theory is that it could be a variant of Intel Arc Battlemage consumption with 16 10th century cores, which would logically be the B380 to sit under the existing B580 (and B570).
Analysis: Hope GPU on Fresh Budget?
As a budgetary GPU, the B380 would be a considerable jump from the A380 – the latter has 8 10th cores, so the battle successor will double this. In theory, it would be twinned with 8 GB of VRAM (slightly more strong than the 6 GB found on the A380).
Overall, then it would be a very useful upgrade – especially since it would be really Budget graphics card. Remember that the A380 was launched at only $ 150 in the United States, so I expected that the B380 is certainly in less than $ 200 – a price of price that desperately needs more attention.
After all, the supplies of the RX 6600 of AMD – which has long been recommended as one of the best choices for this end of the spectrum – seem to dry (and it is no longer as cheap accordingly).
Unfortunately, I would bet that the RX 7400 will not appear outside the predefined PCs, as indicated (and previously the rumor). And even if this is the case, AMD could decide to pin down a price on the GPU which is not less than $ 200; So, in terms of value, it may not be much more attractive than the RX 6600 in its current form.
That said, to the chance of the RX 7400, finally becoming available as an autonomous GPU, this could be an attractive option for small versions of PC (with this frugal power use).
