For anyone wondering what power consumption and TDP an RX 7600 might have, don’t worry, you’ve come to the right place.
The RX 7000 series has been slow getting off the ground, with only the RX 7900 XT and XTX released so far. Now five months on from that release, it’s no surprise that gamers are eagerly anticipating the next release. The latest leaks are suggesting it could be the RX 7600 with a potential release date this month. With rumours swirling about its potential price and MSRP, things are looking pretty exciting. But what sort of power consumption and TDP could we be looking at here?
Let’s get into it.
What power consumption could the RX 7600 have?
While there have been a few leaks and rumours swirling about potential VRAM and core counts, information about power consumption and TDP has been thin on the ground. That being said, a leak from TechPowerUp suggests that an early developer driver version ran with a 175W power draw. Bear in mind that developer drivers are likely to hinder the performance and the power draw could be subject to change as the drivers are updated, and that nothing has been confirmed so it’s worth taking this with a pinch of salt.
That being said, the power draw is not a million miles off the RX 6750 XT which generally pulled roughly 185W-190W. This is particularly interesting when compared with the RTX 4060 Ti power consumption and TDP which comes out at roughly 110W average gaming power for the 8GB version, and 140W for the 16GB version.

Frequently Asked Questions
With everything still up in the air, we know that many people will have questions they want answers to. With that in mind, we’ve done our best here to answer some of your most pressing questions.
Is high TDP good for gaming?
High TDP simply means that your processor is reaching high levels of processing power, resulting in higher heat levels produced. This can be both a good and bad thing. On the one hand, this means that your GPU can process a lot of information quickly. On the other hand, you need to make sure you’re keeping your GPU cool.
Is GPU high power consumption bad for gaming?
High power consumption means that your GPU is processing a lot of data which can be a good thing. However, you want to make sure that your GPU is consuming power efficiently, as, if a lot of power is wasted, you may end up racking up a high energy bill for not much outcome.
