In an interview with Tomshardware, AMD's Senior Vice President, Sam Naffziger, has hinted that the next-gen RDNA 3 GPUs powering the Radeon RX 7000 series graphics cards will feature higher power consumption than existing solutions while still delivering 50% perf/watt gains.

Both AMD and NVIDIA are expected to heavily focus on efficiency and GPU power design of their next-gen GPUs to deliver higher performance. We have seen various leaks for NVIDIA's GeForce RTX 40 series graphics cards which are expected to rock up to 600W designs. Meanwhile, AMD is saying that while they announced a more than 50% performance per watt uplift over the previous generation, that doesn't mean that power levels aren't going to go up for RDNA 3 'Radeon RX 7000' series graphics cards.
