AMD teased the upcoming RX 7000 graphics card lineup last night at the Ryzen 7000 launch event. The GPU series is still in pre-production and is expected to launch later this year.

The RX 7000 series of GPUs will be based on a new architecture called RDNA 3, which is said to be much better than the older RDNA 2. New Ryzen 7000 APUs will be launched with graphics processors based on this architecture.

The RX 7000 graphics card lineup will take on the Nvidia Geforce RTX 40 series, which will be launched later this year. AMD has been tight-lipped about the graphics processors. Although it confirmed that it is working on the products, no concrete information, specs, or release dates have been revealed.
