AMD is reportedly preparing to launch a new generation of professional graphics cards based on its RDNA 4 architecture, addressing a significant gap in its workstation offerings that has left professional users waiting while gamers received regular updates.
Industry sources familiar with AMD’s roadmap indicate that the company is developing a new Radeon Pro card built around the Navi 48 GPU, expected to deliver substantial performance improvements for professional workloads including 3D modeling, video editing, and AI-assisted content creation.
The upcoming card, internally codenamed Navi 48 XTW, will reportedly ship with 32GB of GDDR6 memory featuring ECC (Error-Correcting Code) capability – critical for professional applications where data integrity is paramount. While this represents less memory than some competitors’ high-end offerings, the architecture’s improved efficiency may compensate through better memory utilization.
“Professional users have been overlooked in recent product cycles,” said Maya Thornton, senior analyst at Vertex Market Research. “This refresh could help AMD recapture market share from NVIDIA’s RTX workstation products, especially if they can maintain their traditional price-performance advantage.”
The timing aligns with AMD’s upcoming “Advancing AI” event scheduled for June, where the company is expected to showcase not only its data center Instinct GPU lineup and ROCm software platform but potentially these new professional workstation products as well.
For professionals who depend on AMD’s workstation hardware, the announcement represents a welcome sign that the company hasn’t abandoned the professional market despite its recent focus on gaming and data center products.
The professional graphics landscape has become increasingly competitive, with NVIDIA’s RTX products offering specialized AI acceleration, and Intel attempting to enter the workstation market with its Arc Pro series. AMD’s new offerings will need to deliver compelling performance to maintain relevance in this demanding segment.
Pricing and final specifications remain unconfirmed, with sources suggesting AMD may still be finalizing memory configurations before the official announcement.
