October 12, 2026 at 10:19 AM

> AMD plans to launch its RDNA 5 GPU architecture in late 2027, potentially debuting at Computex to compete with NVIDIA's RTX 60 series.

Leaker **Kepler_L2** reports that [AMD](<https://hardwarebrief.com/entity/amd-q128896>) is targeting the latter part of 2027 for the launch of its **RDNA 5** GPU architecture. [Computex 2027](<https://hardwarebrief.com/entity/computex-q1122733>), scheduled for early June, is identified as the earliest possible timeline for the debut of this next-generation hardware family.

The RDNA 5 AT2 variant is expected to feature between 40 and 70 Compute Units. While memory manufacturers will mass-produce 4 GB and 6 GB GDDR7 chips within two years, Kepler_L2 states that the RDNA 5 lineup will not utilize the 4 GB GDDR7 memory modules.

AMD is not expected to release the full RDNA 5 stack in 2027, suggesting a staggered rollout. This timeline positions the launch ahead of [NVIDIA](<https://hardwarebrief.com/entity/nvidia-q182477>)'s Rubin-based RTX 60 series, which is currently anticipated to arrive on the consumer market sometime in 2028.
