Is AMD preparing an answer to GeForce RTX 3090 Super in the form of Radeon RX 6900 XTX?

Recently, there have been mentions of the allegedly upcoming Radeon RX 6900 XTX. The problem is that the allegedly escaped slide was published by a person who has no known past, reputation, in short, nothing from which it is possible to judge how credible it is. The second problem is that none of the credible leakers know anything about a similar plan.

The plan should be to release an accelerated Radeon RX 6900 XTX, whose parameters would correspond to the so-called Radeon RX 6900 XT Liquid Cooled. However, the card would probably be air-cooled. The water-cooled Radeon RX 6900 XT with higher beats, the image of which appeared in June, did not reach the retail segment as expected (perhaps it is only supplied to selected OEM partners), on the other hand, the selection cores Navi 21XTXH, which are designed for the water model, AMD has also started supplying retail card manufacturers, who use them on the most overclocked models of the Radeon RX 6900 XT.

It is quite possible that AMD is not clear yet and is still hesitant to release something faster. It would be nice in terms of marketing (leaving the GeForce RTX 3090 Super unanswered would probably not like the marketing department), on the other hand it would not affect the total sales volume, as AMD will sell everything it produces and at the price of Bitcoin, which has already climbed $ 50,000. , nothing will change for a long time.

There has also been speculation that the Radeon RX 6900 XTX would not be built on a 6nm GPU, however, reports of 6nm versions of the Navi 2x GPUs suggested that this refresh would only apply to smaller GPUs (Navi 21 replaces 6nm Navi 31) and the fact that these 6nm products are unlikely to arrive until a generation later Ships 3x / RDNA 3, which will be added in lower price ranges. So if the Radeon RX 6900 XTX (or anything like that) is coming, it will be a product built on the current 7nm GPU Navi 21.
