AMD is about to launch a new graphics card with 6nm Navi 24. For the occasion, partners are starting to unveil their cards and what ASRock is doing with its RX 6400 Challenger ITX.
RX 6400 Challenger ITX: a compact model!
With this new card, the brand offers us a model in dual slot format measuring barely 17 cm. Moreover, its cooling system is quite basic with a small fan blowing on a machined aluminum block. Compared to the 6500 XT, the fan is therefore smaller and the radiator more basic. Nevertheless, considering the thermal envelope, this is understandable.
Otherwise, the GPU itself is none other than a Navi 24 taking advantage of a 6 nm engraving. It embeds 768 stream processors distributed in 12 Compute Units (CU). Similarly, there are 48 TMUs and 32 ROPs. The chip also has Ray Accelerators: 12, one per CU. Finally, we can count on 4 GB of GDDR6.
Of course, the frequencies are not known, however, the video outputs show a DisplayPort and an HDMI. On the other hand, there is no auxiliary power connector where the 6500 XT has one… Low power consumption obliges.
