AMD confirms RDNA 4 to launch in early 2025 with improved ray tracing: the "strongest PC portfolio we've had"
AMD confirms RDNA 4 in early 2025 with improved ray tracing, focusing on midrange GPUs.

AMD has announced that the RDNA 4 graphics cards will debut in early 2025 with enhanced ray tracing features. CEO Lisa Su emphasized that these GPUs will contribute to the strongest PC portfolio in AMD's history, although the company will prioritize developing midrange products rather than directly challenging Nvidia's high-end offerings.
AMD's financial focus is illustrated by a 69% decline in gaming revenue, which stands at $462 million for the quarter, primarily due to console makers reducing GPU inventory. Meanwhile, their data center segment achieved record high revenue of $3.5 billion, marking a 122% year-over-year increase and comprising over half of the company's total revenue.
Despite no immediate plans to rival the RTX 5080 and RTX 5090, Su confidently asserts the value of AMD's upcoming products. Next year's CES 2025 is anticipated to be exciting, and with Nvidia's CEO delivering the opening keynote, speculation on significant reveals such as the RTX 5000 series is expected.
