A lot of PC gamers were expecting AMD to officially reveal its RDNA 4 GPUs during its keynote at CES 2025. However, it appears that the red team chickened out at the last minute. Nope. AMD did NOT reveal its RDNA 4 GPUs. Not only that but it has thrown all of its media partners under the bus. And you know what? I can’t stop laughing about it.
You see, AMD did hold a CES 2025 media pre-briefing about its RDNA 4 GPUs. This actually happened. During that event, the red team shared some slides and details about its new GPUs. However, during its keynote, AMD did not mention RDNA4 at all.
What this clusterf’ck means is that a lot of YouTubers and websites already have videos and articles about “AMD revealing the RDNA 4 GPUs“. In those videos, they’ve shared what AMD told them during the pre-briefing. And that’s it. As I said, though, no. AMD has not announced anything. It has simply chickened out.
Okay okay. To be fair, during its keynote, AMD did confirm FSR 4.0. The red team said that they have FSR 4.0 which will be first introduced in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4. And that’s all we got about the RDNA 4 architecture. I mean, do you want more than that? Why?
A lot speculate that AMD is currently afraid of what NVIDIA will reveal in a few hours. So, instead of exposing themselves, AMD is simply waiting for NVIDIA to reveal its RTX 50 series. Then, once AMD sees how NVIDIA has priced its GPUs, it will most likely adjust its own prices so that it can be competitive with them.
In other words, AMD is playing catch-up once again. Oh, and did I mention that FSR 4.0 will most likely be exclusive to the RDNA 4 GPUs? Yep, AMD is locking features behind its latest GPUs. It’s doing EXACTLY what NVIDIA has been doing all these years.
And I know. FSR 4.0 requires the new hardware that is present in the RDNA4 GPUs. That’s completely fine. However, that was also the case with DLSS 3. So, you can’t complain about NVIDIA locking features behind its latest GPUs, and not about AMD.
And there you have it. I’ll link below two videos that have all the information about the RDNA 4 GPUs. However, don’t expect anything major as AMD hasn’t still revealed any prices, specs or gaming benchmarks. Those may come later this quarter.
Stay tuned for more!
