We recently talked about the Radeon RX 5500M and RX5300M along with benchmarks, and it looks like Videocardz has received confirmation of their desktop counterparts as well – which will be announced on the 7th of October (next Monday). AMD will be holding a press call today to brief journalists about their new Navi cards.

AMD demoed the cards against the old Polaris series which this is expected to replace and features 22 CUs for the RX 5500. This translates to 1408 stream processors – the same as NVIDIA’s 1660 Ti – but based on the fact that AMD Navi GPU is built on the 7nm process, it is expected to clock higher. Simple maths would tell you that this would mean NVIDIA is in for some serious competition.
