RDNA 2 is a GPU microarchitecture designed by AMD, released with the Radeon RX 6000 series on November 18, 2020. Alongside powering the RX 6000 series, RDNA 2 is also featured in the SoCs designed by AMD for the PlayStation 5 , Xbox Series X/S , and Steam Deck consoles.
RDNA 2 [20] (also RDNA2) [21] is the successor to the RDNA microarchitecture. It was first publicly announced in early 2020 with a projected release in Q4 2020. [21] [22] According to statements from AMD, RDNA 2 would be a "refresh" of the RDNA architecture. [23] More information about RDNA 2 was made public on AMD's Financial Analyst Day on ...
AMD Software (formerly known as Radeon Software) is a device driver and utility software package for AMD's Radeon graphics cards and APUs. Its graphical user interface is built with Qt [ 6 ] and is compatible with 64-bit Windows and Linux distributions .
CDNA (Compute DNA) is a compute-centered graphics processing unit (GPU) microarchitecture designed by AMD for datacenters. Mostly used in the AMD Instinct line of data center graphics cards, CDNA is a successor to the Graphics Core Next (GCN) microarchitecture; the other successor being RDNA (Radeon DNA), a consumer graphics focused microarchitecture.
On RDNA 3, clock speeds have been decoupled with the front end operating at a 2.5 GHz frequency while the shaders operate at 2.3 GHz. The shaders operating at a lower clock speed gives up to 25% power savings according to AMD and RDNA 3's shader clock speed is still 15% faster than RDNA 2.
The Radeon RX 6800 and 6800 XT were released on November 18, 2020, and the RX 6900 XT was released on December 8, 2020. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] On February 3, 2021, Gigabyte registered a range of RX 6700 XT graphics cards with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC), with the filing indicating that all seven would ship with 12 GB of memory.

The Navi GPUs are the first AMD GPUs to use the new RDNA architecture, [6] whose compute units have been redesigned to improve efficiency and instructions per clock (IPC). It features a multi-level cache hierarchy, which offers higher performance, lower latency, and less power consumption compared to the previous series.
ROCm software is currently spread across several public GitHub repositories. Within the main public meta-repository , there is an XML manifest for each official release: using git-repo , a version control tool built on top of Git , is the recommended way to synchronize with the stack locally.
