With AMD’s newest flagship GPU, RX 5700 XT, the RDNA 3 may not be a multi-chip design. This would cause an issue for gamer and could result in less power efficiency or worse performance when compared to Nvidia GPUs that have multiple chipsets onboard.
The “rdna 3 ray tracing” is a rumor that AMD’s upcoming flagship RDNA 3 GPU may not feature a multi-chip design. The rumor has been around for quite some time, but it has now reached the point where people are questioning whether or not this is true.

One of the most popular theories surrounding AMD’s forthcoming Radeon RX 7000 Series graphics cards is that certain versions will use an RDNA 3 GPU with a brand-new MCM design, which combines many chiplets for increased efficiency and/or performance. The rumor mill currently claims that this isn’t the case, with fresh reported specs revealed this week that aren’t just toned down, but also suggest that Radeon fans will have to wait longer for a GPU with a twin chiplet design from red team. According to materials published by Red Gaming Tech, AMD’s Navi 31 GPU will have a total of 12,288 shaders, all of which are placed on a single GCD.

It used to be a 92 TFLOP monster with 15,360 shaders spread over two graphics compute dies (GCDs), but it has already been reduced to 72 TFLOPs and 12,288 shaders. Now there are rumors that the speculations regarding a twin graphics chiplet architecture were false, and that the multi-chip design is really more about the floating cache than additional computation chips.
According to the newest video from Red Gaming Tech, which seems to have been confirmed by Twitter leakers, the whole 12,288 shader count will be contained on a single 5nm GCD, with six 6nm multi-cache dies (MCDs) grouped around it, or maybe on top of it.
