The final specifications of AMD's upcoming Radeon RX 590 graphics card have leaked out over at Videocardz. The specifications confirm a few new tidbits with the most interesting ones being the pricing and performance figures versus the Radeon RX 580 and the GeForce GTX 1060.

AMD's 12nm Radeon RX 590 With Polaris 30 XT GPU Final Specs, Pricing and Performance Figures Leaked, A Great Blow To NVIDIA's Mainstream Offerings

The specifications are mostly what we have already heard through previous leaks. Since AMD is not making a mainstream Vega graphics card for the desktop market, they are relying on their current Polaris GPU architecture, refining and updating it with a new product offering. This is the Radeon RX 590, enhanced with the 12nm process node and updated with slightly better clocks.

In terms of overall specifications, the Radeon RX 590 is a good boost over the Radeon RX 580. It is actually a far better upgrade compared to the jump from RX 480 to RX 580. We are getting the 12nm Polaris 30 XT GPU which packs 2304 stream processors clocked at 1469 MHz base & 1545 MHz boost clocks.

The card ships with 8 GB of GDDR5 VRAM clocked at 8 Gbps for 256 GB/s bandwidth. You can tell by the specifications that not much has changed from the RX 480 / RX 580 specs or GPU layout but the 12nm process helps achieve higher clock rates. We can also expect some good overclocking numbers out of the new 12nm revision GPUs with clocks hitting north of 1650 MHz as we reported here.
