AMD's budget card for 1080p and 1440p, with 16 GB on a 128-bit bus: 79.2 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 at 1080p Ultra and 47.2 fps at 1440p in Tom's Hardware's 2026 testing. The 16 GB is what sets it apart from the 8 GB version and from 8 GB cards at this price, in newer games with ray tracing on and for local AI models.
