AMD will return to the 10,000-yuan flagship game card RDNA5 architecture DCN6 code rush

Kuai Technology reported on August 2 that among AMD's two major businesses, the CPU side is getting stronger and stronger. Zen6 will be launched this year, but game graphics cards make A fan a little helpless. The current RDNA4 has voluntarily given up on the flagship market and can only wait for the next generation RDNA5 architecture. AMD employees recently submitted 41 Display Core patches to the amd-gfx mailing list for the Linux kernel, naming the next-generation display engine DCN6 (Display Core Next 6), and the current version is DCN4.2, skipping the DCN5 generation. This patch has 129,000 lines and involves the clock manager, HUBBUB, HUBP, etc. of the display engine, but has nothing to do with the 3D rendering technical specifications of the GPU. Judging from its mapping to GC 13.0.1, this is AMD's next-generation RDNA5 GPU architecture, which belongs to the code continuation of the GFX13 series. It appeared in the LVM compiler as early as January. This time it is a code jump of the display engine. These signs indicate that AMD's next-generation game card RDNA5 has been advanced to a certain extent, but it is still too early to say it will be released. Last year, rumors said it would be in mid-2027. Not long ago, it was said that it would continue to be delayed until early 2028. Anyway, it won't be very early. It will be at least 2 and a half years, or even 3 years, from the current RDNA4. The good news is that the specifications of this generation of RDNA5 will be greatly improved, AMD will return to the flagship graphics card market, and it will be used by Microsoft Xbox and Sony PS6. The entire RDNA5 family has at least three branches. The one for game graphics cards is "Alpha Trion", the one for PS6 consoles is "Orion Pax", and the one for Xbox consoles is "Ultra Magnus". The focus of the technical upgrade of the RDNA5 graphics card is naturally AI and ray tracing. AMD has previously announced three major technical features with Sony, as shown below: Neural Arrays: A set of computing units configured as a total
