AMD has quietly added a new RDNA 4 graphics card to its lineup: the Radeon RX 9060 XT LP. “LP” stands for Low-Power, and that name pretty much tells the story. This version is essentially the same RX 9060 XT gamers already know, but tuned to run at a lower total board power, making it an interesting option for more power-conscious desktops and prebuilt PCs.
According to AMD’s product listing in China, the Radeon RX 9060 XT LP is rated at 140W TDP. That’s 20W lower than the standard Radeon RX 9060 XT, suggesting AMD has adjusted clocks and power limits to reduce overall consumption while keeping the core hardware configuration intact. It also strongly hints that this model may be aimed primarily at the Chinese market, potentially as a region-specific SKU or for OEM system builders.
On paper, the key specs remain unchanged. The RX 9060 XT LP keeps the same 2048 stream processors, 16GB of GDDR6 memory, a 128-bit memory bus, and 64 AI accelerators. It also continues to use a single 8-pin power connector, just with slightly less power draw in practice. For buyers, that combination is appealing because it suggests you’re not sacrificing the fundamentals—VRAM capacity and core configuration stay the same—while getting a more efficient card.
There are, however, a few small performance-related differences. AMD’s published compute throughput numbers (including FP8, FP16, FP32, and other precision metrics) appear to be very slightly lower than the regular RX 9060 XT. That typically points to modest clock reductions or more conservative boost behavior, which would make sense given the 20W TDP drop.
Connectivity also looks identical to the standard model. The RX 9060 XT LP retains modern display outputs, including HDMI 2.1b and DisplayPort 2.1a, with no changes mentioned to supported rendering formats. In other words, it should plug into the same kinds of high-refresh gaming monitors and next-gen display setups as the existing RX 9060 XT.
One open question is whether AMD will offer an 8GB version of this low-power model. So far, the focus appears to be on the 16GB configuration, which has generally attracted more attention thanks to modern game requirements and the extra headroom it provides.
Pricing and wider availability haven’t been detailed yet, but a lower-power variant often lands at a slightly lower price than the standard version—assuming it’s positioned as a separate SKU and not limited to specific system integrators. For now, the most important takeaway is simple: AMD is expanding its RX 9060 series again, and the new Radeon RX 9060 XT LP offers the same core specs with a 140W power target for users who want RDNA 4 features with improved efficiency.
